2010 Winter Olympics - United States vs Norway (Group A)

[dropkickshanahans 463]

im in class right now, how bad is the US looking if its only 1-0 against Norway?

They're fine, they gave up one scoring chance from norway just now, great save by miller, but so far the US has been just getting so many chances and they can't bury the puck.

[dropkickshanahans 463]

women's half pipe qualifiers? what the f*** is this?

[Hank Dats 'N Homer 81]

Canada was 0-0 half way into the game.

Yeah but Canada is terrible this year....J/k

I was just asking because someone said we were missing the net alot, so i was just wondering if we looked bad or or rusty still.

So NBC is ******* up the streams too? Just one nice, big clusterf*** they got going on over there.

[Guest Lidstromboli]

Parise-Stastny-Kane on paper sounds really good. On the ice, they're a little underwhelming when together.

[Guest Lidstromboli]

wow, mcguire actually sounded mad about a penalty

NBC screwed up The Tonight Show and they're screwing up the Olympics. Surprised? I'm not.

[titanium2 867]

Huh... JR and Milbury... Annnnnddd muute.

[Barrie 900]

Sorry to say, but some of these countries like Norway shouldn't even play Olympic Hockey against powerhouses like Canada, Sweden, Russia, USA, Finland, and Czech Republic.

Do they even have a Olympic qualification tournament in Europe? Or can any country play? I can't imagine the Norway, Latvia, Germany, and Belarus players enjoy being beat every game, and most of the time very badly.

They should limit the teams to the top 8, and have the Swiss, Norway, Latvia, Germany, Belarus, and Slovakia play for the last 2 spots before the Olympics. I personally wouldn't mind seeing Canada, Sweden, Russia, USA, Finland, and Czech Republic play each other more.

But that's just me I guess.

Womens Hockey is even worse...

As much as I hate NBC for not showing the games in full, I hate them more for the stupid, pointless, useless, badly thought out time delay for the west coast. I could be watching almost everything live, but nooooooooooooooooo, they time delay it until 730 or whatever because they are dumb as a box of hair.

are you watching the game on the site i gave you?

or did it not work ?

[Vladifan 680]

Wow. I saw the name "Tollefson" on one of the Norwegian jerseys. Then spouse said THEY just said one of the Norway players was a Wing. COULD IT BE....?! I'm not sure of his number yet, but I'm definitely gonna start watching for him during the second period.

i think there is qualifications, i heard during the russia vs latvia game that latvia earned their spot by winning something, and i was also looking forward to seeing latvia vs kazakhstan ( a made up rivalry by me and my brother in law in nhl 2k5), they played last olympics but kazakhstan didnt make it this year.

[EuroTwin 240]

A... A box of... hair?

Kind of like the saying "dumb as a box of rocks" except with less sense, because there's usually a reason to have a box of rocks and there is no reason to have a box of hair.

[Hockeytown Red Wings 245]

I think the Norways and Latvias of the tournament are proud to have made it and to be Olympians. They know going in they're not gonna win much, but sometimes you get 2002 Belarus over Sweden. I'm sure that makes it all worth it.
