Is it wrong to cheer for Norway so they light up Price so Luongo gets to be the go to guy?

Or maybe this is like 2010 where Brodeur got the start, but when Luongo came in, he stole the show.

If we get lit up by Norway I'd be less worried about the goaltending and more worried about our team as a whole.

It seems like anyone's position for the taking, whoever looks more impressive their game gets the start

Pretty lame they aren't airing the 2 men's hockey games this morning (unless I'm missing something)

Edit, nevermind I can see the Lat v Sui game now

I was cheering against Bro more than I was cheering for Canada in 2010 lol

Pretty sure everything gets aired.

danny_d19 02-12-2014 08:23 AM

Would rather watch the Cze Swe game there's no link on the CBC site

Oh tried to type the teams in a link and it works

CBC Sports - WATCH NOW: Men's hockey CZE vs SWE (webcast)

Are you on your computer? Tablet/phone?

If you're using the app, it should have a banner in yellow on the picture saying something like "Live watch now".

Computer should be working as I'm watching the hockey stream as I type this.

belka 02-12-2014 10:10 AM

Why isn't CBC's HNIC stream this good?

m3thods 02-12-2014 10:11 AM

They spent all their money on the Olympics lol

Btw it's funny I don't think we're getting Healy's mic so there's a lot of dead air. I'm hearing burps and/or farts. So awkward lol

Gold medals, silver medals, all medals, it doesn’t matter how you count it up, the Canadians – with just 30 million people – are eating our lunch (probably a chicken noodle soup and a grilled panini from Tim Hortons). Then to quench their thirst they are going to that sweet beer fridge they brought over that only opens if you have a Canadian passport.
Quote:

Yeah, Canada is cool. The U.S. is not, at least not yet. There’s time and more events and hockey and all of that, but thus far, the Canadians are on a roll, extending their hot streak from the Vancouver Games and winning and winning and winning.

Well, this Own the Podium thing keeps going and going, as relentless and annoying as Justin Bieber. Own the Podium? Look Canada, North America isn’t big enough for two egomaniacal, boastful countries that claim ownership over communal property. Stop stealing our act.

IMO only Gold medals should count, its still really early into the games and most countries up top not far apart each other in Golds. No competitive athlete sets out to be the second or third best. Ask the Broncos how they felt being second best or the Canucks in 2011 how it felt only winning the Presidents Trophy and West title.

On another note, anyone else liking team Canada mens hockey over 5.5 goals vs Norway and Russia/Slovenia game over 6.5? Looks solid to me. Hit on Sweden and Switzerland regulation win today.

m3thods 02-12-2014 11:09 AM

^As commercialized as the Olympics are, it goes against the "spirit of the games" if they were to only count Golds. Yes you're right- elite athletes generally only go there to win. But there's a large contingent of athletes who are there to just soak the atmosphere in. The medals are there for incentive, but it's hardly the only reason that athletes train to go to the Olympics (the sex all around them!)

Given the North America teams using these games to adjust to the big ice, getting 6 goals over a European team might be difficult. Unless that's 6 goals total, it's a tricky bet that I'd only take if the odds were good enough.


Edit:

God this is oh so good!

Just saw a teaser claiming there is controversy over the Canada/US women's hockey game.

Edit: It's over the second goal.
