2010 Winter Olympics thread...

I'm not really sure what's going on with Crosby, he looked pretty good in the first game, ok in the second, but in the last game, not so good except for his redirect. Maybe the pressure's getting to him? He is expected to deliver the gold medal on a platter for Canada, might be a bit much for a 22 year old. Hopefully he can pick it up in the next game. I seriously doubt that not having Malkin there has anything to do with it...they are rarely on the same line, and when Malkin was out with an injury earlier this season Crosby excelled. Geno has also had some pretty bad slumps ('08 playoffs anyone?) and Crosby has done extremely well.

Speaking of which, Malkin has been amazing in the Olympics so far. Can't wait to see where that goes - up until the last month or two he was having a bad season (well, a bad season for him...) but it seemed like all of a sudden he was back. I don't know what team to cheer for - would be nice if all of my favorites could win!

Wanted to show off my Olympic nails. Themed for Canada, of course. Also wanted to note that the Canadian Women's hockey team is leading Finland 4-0 with 14 minutes left in the third.

LOL,

Have you had your toes "curl"?

The "Crosby Effect"?


I have noticed that the game of hockey has always lent itself to more 'pairing' than any other sport.

Seems like all the great ones have another player that they depend on while there on the ice.

Do tell?

LOL, How many pics did you take before you found the "perfect 10"?


I can't help it anymore....

Wins so far for Canada AND USA today. How awesome would it be to see them both in the gold medal game??

Apolo Ohno advances to the quarterfinals. Friday is going to be a big day for him.

When they have played to his strength, totally. He is a big dude. Its not "normal" for European teams to play a dump/chase/crash kind of game. Granted, most of the "European" teams are mostly NHL players....

Malkin on the wing with Ovechkin and.... Fedorov.... That has not happened yet. (I think) But THAT would be a line. That line gets 3 goals and Fedorov gets 3 helpers.
