[Tinboy]

Go Irbe!

[Philagape]

Right now the Swiss are skating circles around the Czechs. These games are not a good case for NHLers in the Olympics.

[THATHURMANATOR]

WHAT THE ****. WE ARE STILL AMERICANS! I AM STILL ROOTING FOR USA EVEN IF THEY DIDN'T TAKE MILLER.

[SkateZilla]

Lativa was there and practiceing for almost a week,

Team USA arrived 5 hours before playing ...

[THATHURMANATOR]

Exactly ZILLA!

No they didn't.... they arrived Tuesday night. A few members of team USA like Gomez, Blake and couple others went to the womens game vs. Finland and were shown on TV.

Exactly.... i don't like some of the players on this team, but for the next 2 weeks, im rooting for them. These guys are repersenting the United States and it's only retarted not to cheer for these guys.

[SABuffalo786]

I'm not going to go out of my way to wish the USA ill will, but I honestly couldn't care less if they lose every one of their games.

Excuses, excuses :shakeno:

I'm rooting hard for the buy from Venezuela (who is actually from Boise Idaho but that's another matter)

[SabreEleven]

Log said Latvia was going to be tough. He called it.

[JD]

...im rooting for Team USA all the way, but Ryan Miller even more!

[Tinboy]

Switzerland - Canda 2-0 eight minutes remaining, wow!

[Tinboy]

Sweden - USA 2-1
:rockout: :box: :jam:

[Philagape]

Finland 2, Canada 0. Canada hasn't scored a goal in two games

[YardRat]

Do we have a shot at the medal round, even if we beat Russia?

The 1-2-1 record isn’t pretty, but a slot in the quarterfinals is all but guaranteed no matter what the United States does in its final round-robin game on Tuesday against the Russians. The only team that can displace the Americans from the quarters is Latvia, and it would take a Miracle on Ice to the 10th power for Latvia to advance.

Latvia needs to beat Kazakhstan by at least 16 goals and the Americans have to lose to Russia to knock the stars and stripes out. Usually, this is the place where I insert a line to indicate that stranger things have happened, but in this case, they haven’t.

So it’s Russia on Tuesday and then the next night, the real tournament starts with the eight surviving teams. And once the puck drops to begin it, it really is anyone’s tournament — even Team USA’s.

sounds weird that the team could end up 1-3-1 and still end up in medal play but thats what this guy is saying

cool

that was a great game and could have gone either way. other than a sputtering pp the us team played good i thought. they are going to have to get the pp working but if they do they are just as real a medal contender as anybody else

man this is some great hockey. im really enjoying it
