Winter Olympics 2010 Thread

I seriously never got why people put Russia so high up on the ranks. I always thought they were a much overrated team. A top 6 team, but not 1 or 2.

Real easy to say that after they got knocked out.

Lindsey Vonn is utter crap.

lol wut?

I have Bell Expressvu. No announcers or commercials. The only way to watch the Olympics.
They have five commercial/announcer-free Olympic channels.

lol sorry to hear that. I simply refuse to deal with Bell in any capacity any more.

Damn Sweden.

Shocking.

But, in my opinion, Sweden and the Russians are on paper as good as Canada.

I've forgotten more about hockey than you'll ever know. Hell, I watched the 1972 Summit Series (go ahead, Wikipedia it).

While Forsberg, Lidstrom and Alfredsson are no longer in their prime, all three remain elite players ... and incredibly dangerous in a short tourney like this.

The Swedes also have the Sedin sisters, who are tearing up the NHL right now.

Dave, I guess I really underestimated your memory.

"On Paper" means shit all nothing. I never thought Russia on paper was as good as Canada. People just got to excited about the thought of Ovey/Malkin/Kovy as a possible line, along with Semin and Dats, but after that, you get a serious lack of depth with the KHL players.

The Slovaks got a great game from their goalie. Seems to be how you win this thing.

I enjoyed the Canada-Russia game despite the lopsidedness. It had the buildup of a heavyweight title fight. I totally agreed with the announcer in that Nabakov should have been pulled near the end of the 1st period, and, at the latest, in between the 1st & 2nd period. He was clearly rattled.

I think Canada scoring right away released all the pressure on the Canadian team and allowed them to play aggressive. Still, did anyone else see Babcock blowing up on the bench? They kept showing him on TV, and his face was getting redder and redder. During a stoppage in play after the third Canadian goal, they had a mic by him and he said "Guys, what the hell are you doing? Sure, you are dominating play, but scoring goals IS NOT PART OF THE SYSTEM!! STOP!! We can't win if you guys don't follow the gameplan here! And on defense, I expect everyone to be laying down on the ice. If I have to tell you guys again, then I'll put Brodeur in."

I think it's awesome.


3-1 after two. wooooooo

 

[Ravin]

3-2 now. Jesus this swiss team is terrible. They have missed two shots that should be fairly easy by now. Had a chance to blank the end with a simple hit and roll and you miss? GTFO

we did the same thing in the 1st end.

we're playing better defence tho, on that 1st swiss point there was no way in hell she could have done anything about that.

need to score 3 with the hammer and put it out of reach.

 

[killgod]
