How good was the US goalie last night? 42 saves on 45 shots. Can he keep doing that? Discuss.

I've not watched any of the Olympics yet. How are the hockey games in general? I used to play Ice Hockey and usually get nostalgic when the games start up. Always been a fan of the old European style of hockey.

Word USA killed it. I didn't have my ID with me and I had to watch the third period through a window at the bar while I waited for a dozen homies.

It was pretty damn exciting for me. WAY better than any NHL game.

^but aren't are the players NHL players??? LOL

yeah they are, but still. good game peeps. go canada.

GO CANADA!

We dominated... but got owned by a hot goalie...
SUUUCKS!

The USA team is not as skilled as Canada, Russia or the Czech Rep., but they play much better as a unit and are much more patient. We definitely have a shot at a medal. Oh and I would love to rematch with Russia 30yrs after Lake Placid

U.S.A.!!!

Canada/Russia is going to be sick tonight!!

Man what a bust Canada/Russia was. I was expecting that to be one of the best games of the tournament.

When I turned it on it was 4-1. Next time I checked it was 7-3. I Didn't bother watching much.

US & Canada each 1 win away from a rematch in the gold medal game. Ya think that would get a little hyped up? :)

GO CANADA!!!!!!!!! :D

go mighty ducks!!

The thing is that the US is playing with house money at this point -- even a silver medal would be a great accomplishment. Hell, a bronze would be too. ALL the pressure would be on Canada.

The US team is built like a TEAM is built - some guys are more role-player types. Canada built an all-star team. There's a difference. And Canada built their team to beat Russia very specifically, and they have.

But yeah, Ryan Miller is incredible.

2 wins away from carrying the team on his back to a gold medal!




Boy, ain't that the truth!

USA Hockey ftw!

Make that one. :)

Ryan Miller is awesome, indeed! And you can't forget how well Brian Rafalski has played. It's actually really hard for me to root against team Canada because their coach is Mike Babcock (Red Wings) and their team president is Steve Yzerman - who is the only reason I became a hockey fan....greatest captain of any team, ever.

Anyways, fuck all that...GO USA!!!

O Canada!!!

2-1...let's go boys!

lets go CA-NA-DA lets go clap-clap-clap

hanging on to the lead, lets try to clean it up for the 3rd

USA WOOP WOOP!!!

Ahem...

:)

Ahem...

GOOOOOOOOOOLDDDDDDDDD

CANADA SON, AWW YEA BABY,......



















































sorry, were you dissing canada? i couldnt hear you over my health care bennefits.. HAHAHAHH

C'mon now...Canada invented hockey. Did you really think there would be a different outcome to that game? Crosy for PM!

Congrats Canada on the Yankees beating the Padres in the 7th game of the world series in the 12th inning on a homer by Alex Rodriguez!!!!!!!

(grumble)

in case ya'll missed it...the highlights compressed down into 2 minutes:

Canada may have invented hockey, but it's pretty clear they aren't the leaders they used to be....USA gave them one hell of a battle...and were were supposed to suck...ha!

good game Canada but you're lucky it's only 1 game and not best of series...

OK, that's it. We're invading!

LOL. good one ^ and no i dont ride my polar bear to school and i dont live in a igloo... lmao!

one other thing...if Canadian hockey is sooooo fucking good, then why the fuck do they all come to America to play? Get your own fucking league and we'll keep taking care of our own health thank you.

/rant

next exciting hockey game will be crosby v. ovechkin....zzzzzz til then.

cause they can't get onto Team Canada cause they just aren't good enough! (Ex. brett hull). The majority of players in the NHL are canadian anyways so without em...nothing? haha.

nothing? what are you smoking? we just won silver (almost won gold) at the olympics....yeah, us, AMERICANS......how dare you say "nothing"??? shame on you...

You misunderstood me...I wasn't referring to the US' ability as players, I was referring to your comment about starting our own 'league', since the 'NHL' is somehow America's league. Without canadians in 'your' league, there wouldn't be much of a league.

and I stand by my comment....we have plenty of very good american athletes to fill our own league....

that was a great game. Probably one of the best games i've ever seen.

Hope it helps give the NHL a bit of a boost down south. The northern states seem to love it but it's pretty under the radar once you head south...

it's big here on the west coast...

yea, but it's still dwarfed by bball and football.

Would love to see more teams in the northwest - seattle and portland could use teams for sure...

hmmmmm.....I wouldn't say dwarfed...in fact, the Sharks probably sell waaaaay more tickets than the A's.....

Easily probably one of the ten best sporting events I've ever seen.

Great Game!
