    Goal...

    I love country vs country competitions...but damn. I'll admit, I'm not feeling like much of a fan of hockey.

    So is this essentially like an AllStar game for the NHL? lol..

    Well... would you consider Basketball in the Olympics to be essentially an All-Star game? It's pretty much like that.

    As much as I want the U.S.A. to win... Canada knows that they cannot afford to lose under any circumstances. And now they have a PP...

    The U.S. is doing a good job of stopping the puck and the Canadian passes, but the Canadians always have numbers everywhere the puck seems to go. :(

    HAHA Jack Johnson was pissed at Perry and Getzlaf. Way to keep NHL rivalries alive in Olympic competition. Go Kings!

    Pretty exciting game! Its living up to expectations.

    Anyone else find this E-Trade baby ad about a baby cheating on his baby GF with a baby skank disturbing?

    I doubt there will be a fight during the Olympics. Refs will break it up everytime.

    I've been thinking that the winter Olympics should have Hockey Fights as an Olympic sport.

    No. It's the same thing in the playoffs. Unless absolutely necessary, you'll never see fighting in big games.

    Pretty intense game so far.

    Canada is clearly better, but the US is hanging tough.

    There is absolutely zero fighting in Olympic hockey, big game or not.

    YES! A couple of good PKs from the U.S. and now they get a PP of their own.
