--- Quote from: Patrick on 09 Feb 2014, 16:05 ---I'm really stoked about Olympic hockey. The ice rinks are HUGE compared to NHL rinks, making the players have to play harder if they're gonna be successful in shot block attempts and gaining possession of the puck. More distance to cover to get there. Shit's so fucking epic.

I cannot enthuse enough about the U.S. Women's hockey team. Two threads is not enough for me to enthuse about it. Holy fuck the Swiss got stomped hard.
There's only one word for this...
Delicious.
Nikolai:
Okay, even the Japanese held their own against Sweden, so at this point one of the two top-tier women's teams issuing a severe beatdown isn't that big a deal.
I'm dreading the Canada/USA showdowns. I think for women's hockey I'm going to maintain my Canadian allegiance, and the men's game I'm just cheering for individual players. Curling must remain Canadian, and everything else can go to USA. Except bobsled. Jamaica needs that shit, mon.
jwhouk:
I beg to differ on the curling.
ev4n:
The problem with curling is that, arguably, 5 of the 10 best rinks in the world are Canadian, on both the men's and the women's sides. That doesn't mean Canada deserves a medal, but I think it does mean that there are likely more competetive competitions IN Canada than at the Olympics.
