JJ, Miller is perhaps the best goalie in the entire world entering these games.
Buffalo is going to be a tough out in the NHL playoffs with him in net.
I agree. You can ride a hot goalie a long way in the Olympics and NHL playoffs. Jim Craig was incredible in the 1980 Olympics.

Russia vs Czech was probably one of the best tactical games of hockey ever played. Pure magic.

Canadians have no chance against Russia! They have huge guys who are slow as elephants...Getzlaf, Perry, Pronger. US just as Swiss had small quick and sharp guys , the last empty net goal was exactly what I am talking about... They need small fast guys like St.Louis or Lecavallier and they lack finishing power. If you don't have speed and finishing power, you can not win. Canadian team looks like group of 85 year old's and that is pathetic considering that they are playing at their home Olympics! 80-s are over there are no more Gretzky, Lemieux and Coffey.

It would be great for the sport if the U.S. would win the gold again.

I rather watch nba basketball, much more entertaining and better athletes. In USA way too many warm climates to have hockey a top sport. It is just hard to know any guys in hockey, in NBA players and coaches are much more visible and tv coverage way better. Listen to me hockey is dead in the usa.

the NBA is an awful product-and I loved the NBA in the 90's. I haven't been interested or able to sit through a game in years, especially when the college product is so much better

there are plenty of NBA/NHL cities where the NHL team outdraws the NBA counterpart. just east coast alone, off the top of my head the NHL team beats out the NBA team in NY, Philly, and DC.

The hockey is excellent, lots of good games but again winning the Stanley Cup is 50x more important than winning a fukkin gold which no one remembers
No way.

Why would anyone listen to you?
A lot of your posts are so ridiculous that I don't think even you believe the content in them.
