Game currently pre-empted by curling.....again. At least the later games shouldn't have that issue.

I'm thinking Switzerland 4-2, Slovakia 3-1, and Germany with a sound performance wins 5-2. I assure you these predictions will make me look like an idiot.

Of course Switzerland gets a penalty shot and then actually scores 5 seconds after that... and we miss it. Apparently watching exciting hockey is second to a boring curling match. I'm sorry if anyone here actually likes watching curling, but why would anyone in the U.S. care about that sport when hockey is on?!

During the Winter Olympics, Curling is my second favorite thing to watch. If you like sports of strategy then you'd like curling. But that's just me. Plus, i'd watch the end of a USA Men's curling match if it only meant missing 5-10 minutes of a hockey game between Norway and Swiss. Had it been USA v CAN I would have been pissed, but not between these two teams.

Good thing they put all the boring games today, and all the good games tomorrow.

to you it may be boring but so far this game has been pretty exciting!

[stevieisthebest 80]

Sick goal there by the Swiss

[Ziggy Stardust 0]

I think the Norway - Switzerland game has been exciting so far!

I may be biased, since I'm from Norway, but both teams has played decent hockey.

[redwings8831 40]

Swiss just scored on the PP. 4-3 now. About 9 left in the 3rd.

[redwings8831 40]

Tore Vikingstad with a hat-trick for Norway. 4-4 now. Great game.

[titanium2 867]

This is a great game!

[titanium2 867]

What number defenseman is Tollefsen? I know his jersey number is 55 but is he a top-2, or top-4?

[Ziggy Stardust 0]

Noooo!

[cusimano_brothers 1,655]

What a great pass.

[titanium2 867]

Poor Jacobsen.

[Ziggy Stardust 0]

What the hell was that 6 man on ice call? And why didnt Norway get a PP just before the goal?

German refs in a game against Switzerland! yey!

Lot's of horrible reffing in this olympic.

[Guest ToMaToToWnWinGsFaN_24]

aww..poor norway

what a great game nontheless!

[IceMunkee 15]

What a great game between Norway and Switzerland. I honestly was not expecting Olympic hockey to be so exciting. And the means figure skating too! WOW! LOL

[Guest mindfly]

Yeah you americans better learn the excitement of the olympics and not just care about the nhl

[redwings8831 40]

So it seems like Slovakia destroyed Latvia. 6-0. Belarus/Germany starts in a hour.

[McAwesome 754]

Germany finally on the scoreboard, and wow what a move by that Ugarov guy.

[MannyK 16]

like 4 goals in 2 minutes in the Germany/Belarus game... tied at 3 with 8 minutes to go in the 3rd... crazy!

[FunkedUp 29]

Wow. Germany. 2 great goals. All tied up.

[dropkickshanahans 463]

Anybody watching this Switzerland/Norway game? Norway just tied it up 4-4, pretty exciting stuff.

[dropkickshanahans 463]

Good play by the Swiss, won 5-4 in OT. Norway's defense pretty much had a brainfart at the end there.
