^^ Almost 12 hours after the game....I assume you have some sort of inside knowledge of Benn scoring in the athlete's village?

Did anyone hear about the Slovakian uniforms? Apparently the blue or white pin stripes (home/away uniforms) are actually the words to the Slovakian national anthem.

Uniform? Are you talking about hockey or women's tennis? It's called a jersey!!

Technically, in hockey it's called a sweater. Nice job showing your ignorance again

Hey Moogelino, how many LA Kings games does Jeff Carter need to score 3 goals?

Hopefully the US men don't follow in the women's skates.


Hank was great against the Swiss.

After watching Finland vs Norway on the BBC feed, I will never ever complain about a North American Hockey play by play guy again.

Honestly, I think has more hockey knowledge than this guy.

To be honest, I hope Team USA wins the gold. That way, can start posting in here again and let us know where the gold medals are.

Is Carter on the same line as Kopidor when Kings play...? Cuz, Kopidor is pretty good at setting up?

He probably wouldn't score as much.

Perhaps Sidney Crosby was holding Jeff Carter back?

Carter was removed from Crosby's wing on Canada's top line Friday, and the Los Angeles Kings forward promptly scored a natural hat trick in the second period of a 6-0 rout of Austria in Group B play at the 2014 Sochi Olympics.

The puck traveled about 2 feet in total for all 3 goals COMBINED. So the ice had nothing to do with it.

It just occurred to me that Finlands goaltender has more points in the Olympic tournament than "the greatest player in the world". It's OK Crosby, you're Canadian, you're doing the best you can.

2 for 2....don't know if you are serious or not.

Clearly the Oly rink had everything to do with the style of the game.

One of the local radio guys was thinking Quick should start until he fails. His theory (which I think is a good one) was that all things at their best, Quick has more positives than Miller, if Quick fails, Miller would be a proven backup.

Going to be an entertaining game, for sure. Can't wait. If USA can play to their strengths, it should be a close one but a victory...

Otherwise, if they try to run and gun with the Russians, yeah...ew.
