Lol! I don't understand their decision making. They went for some difficult shots when they could've played it safe to keep games close. Watching their game against Korea I could tell they weren't in contention
It was a frustrating week and a half
So many wasted opportunities

Then the end last night
Going fucking short on a shot that literally had to be perfect to even have a shot when the triple was honestly the easier shot and would have gotten them into a way better position just pissed me off

So many horrible decisions

USA moves back into the top 5

I don't get some of the Americans
Is it really that you have to win????
Top 5 in the world is pretty fucking good, Espcially when you are more of a summer Olympics country

I will be watching the womans hockey for sure. Sochi was pretty exciting when Canada beat USA. We stopped work and went to the pub got pretty buzzed. Canada was down 2-0 going into the 3rd period. One of the ladies went by Canada's bench and started chirping, lit a fire under their ass and Canada's ladies won it in overtime.

The girls definitey are just as fun watching as the guys.

The best game played in the Olympics (men's and women) was the earlier canada/USA woman match
This is going to be so good

In hockey?
It's slower. The hits are weak. Puck control is lacking. Passes aren't as crisp. Never any fights.

But yeah. Just as fun.

Watch USA vs Canada women
It's damn good hockey
I can't say anything for the other countries and that's where the men's tournament is slightly better
The calibre of talent overall is much better in the men's tournament and the teams have been pretty evenly matched (except Russia once they woke up) this year with nhl not there

Only have to watch it once every 4 years. I think representing Canada and the US rivalry adds a level of excitement.

Also the woman are set to break a record of 5 straight gold medals.

Apparently the Russians are giving up their bronze without a fight now after the b sample has come back positive
The team that came in 4th is apparently asking for a special medal ceremony

Will update as more comes out

Awesome run by David Wise. I have no idea what the criteria is for crazy fucking ski pipe shit it, but apparently the judges agree.

And this guy is likely dead.
