Shuster seemed kind of smug in the interview he had on CNBC. What an [expletive].

WTG Swiss! Just getting to OT is great. Hiller has been amazing.

5 shooters is so much better than 3

I agree. I grew up going to IHL/AHL Wolves games. It just seems more fair, and it takes like 2 minutes longer.

Hottest sport on ice.

 

Yeah, no.

Gotta give the Swiss a lot of credit. They play that game 10 more times and don't tie them again.

Party in the USA being played at the Vancouver Olympics amuses me way more than it should.

Any suggestions to help me get into Hockey? I can watch any sports (or even slightly sports related) event that there is. Baseball, basketball, football, tennis, golf, poker, soccer, etc. But, every time I sit down to watch hockey, I change it after 5 minutes. :[

 

The easy thing is to go to a game, it's incredible.

 

But if you can watch poker for longer than hockey, then maybe you are beyond help.

Yeah, I've been to one hockey game live. It was Miami of Ohio. Evidently they have (or had?) a pretty fantastic team. I was right against the glass and was pretty drunk by the time we got there. The atmosphere was amazing. Can't say I cared much for the game, though, aside from a few guys getting smashed into the glass in front of me.

That's great.

OK, I admit it, I'm watching men's figure skating and excitedly rooting for the Americans. Lysacek leads the field by a good 12 points, and only Plushenko can beat him now.

I wish somebody would've given me a heads up

Plushenko holding up both index fingers after his skate, but comes up 1.3 points short anyway. Lysacek wins gold!

Lysacek looks machine-like jumping. You almost can't envision him falling down.

 

The more gold medals for the U.S. the better.

johnny weir may be the gayest person in history. not that there's anything wrong with that, i just find him comical.

First U.S. gold medal in men's figure skating since Brian Boitano in 1988. First defending world champion to win Olympic gold since Scott Hamilton in 1984. Interestingly he is now the reigning world champion and Olympic champion but not national champion.

Hossa scored to tie Russia earlier in the 3rd. Two minutes left in regulation in a 1-1 tie. Game's on CNBC.
