Position is Price's to lose after he started the 3rd game. There has been no indications that he can't handle it. Problem is we're screwed if he falters, so it's really a moot point.

Why do you say that?
Unless you meant "for Price to get pulled, Canada would have to give up a 5-spot or worse" then I see what you mean.
But if you meant that Luongo is a huge downgrade if Price went down to injury or early weak goals, I'd strongly disagree.
For the record I thought it was a toss-up between the two goalies at the start. After seeing the 2 games, I thought it was Luongo's crease. I was wrong, and after watching Price handle a lack of shots I think Price was the right choice.

Canada would be screwed because he'd probably have to let in at least 4 goals before being pulled. If that's the case, then we're probably already down a few. I can't see him being pulled in a tight game.

Gotcha. But given the styles of play and the talent involved, if the 4 come early enough I think Canada might still recover from a Price hook.

There's no reason why Canada can't break the USA at their own run and gun game.

If the goals are soft, I'm hoping Price gets the hook after 2.
I would like to see that happen anyway.
lol, USA wouldn't blow a 4 goal lead...
But either way, both goalies are good enough, and if we lose, goaltending wouldn't be the blame.

I know Crosby is super talented and picking at a 1 game sample size is total ass but I found it pretty unbelievable that in an elimination game Crosby + Kunitz were fucking outchanced by Latvia https://twitter.com/fearthefin/status/436312698712633344/photo/1 especially if I recall correctly it was mostly some combination of Marleau-Toews-Carter/Bergeron taking D zone faceoffs when Latvia was pressing to tie it up.

Tavares done for the season with a torn mcl

Damn........ out for the season. Not good news.
If the NHL and owners decide not to have players participate in future Olympics, it would open up a can of worms. Would the KHL follow suit? I don't follow the KHL so have no idea what calibre of players they have. Pretty sure all teams would be affected greatly without NHL players, but at the same time, that's what the Olympics were supposed to be (prior to 70's). In modern times, it's not possible for athletes to compete without sponsorship or compensation.

Good point, and an interesting one, but that means the NHL and the NHPLA has no power over the players. Not sure if any GM would agree to that.

I always wondered about that.
Even in NHL, I always see teams play "keep away" with a delayed call.
I guess they rather have a 6 on 4 (with the goalie pulled) ?
I would rather just take the longer 5 on 3 easily.
well it depends on the skill level dif of the two,too. for mens, if the team has good flow to the pp, then they want it to continue, greater chance of a goal, also dat fatigue. (except for canucks :fuckthatshit:) some teams do give it up right away. for womens, the extra person off is more of an advantage than the flow. thats just my opinion doe

Could a possible reason be that.. most teams practice the penalty kill. Most wouldn't practice a 6 on 5 situation, so there is a higher possibility of a player slipping through the cracks and creating a scoring opportunity.

BC bars allowed open for Olympic men?s hockey medal games | News1130 (http://www.news1130.com/2014/02/20/bc-bars-allowed-open-for-olympic-mens-hockey-medal-games/?cid=dlvr.it)
VANCOUVER (NEWS1130) – Hockey fans will be able to celebrate a Canadian Olympic hockey victory or drown their Olympic hockey tears, as long as they don’t drink alcohol while doing it.
Attorney General Suzanne Anton says bars and pubs in BC will be allowed to extend their hours for bronze and gold medal men’s hockey games in Sochi.
The gold medal game on Sunday takes place at 4 a.m. Pacific when, under regular rules, the establishments would be shuttered. But the province says it will make an exception to the rules in the spirit of the Olympic Games.
Bars and pubs will be allowed to stay open so patrons can watch the game, but last call will remain the same.
Saturday’s bronze medal game begins at 7 a.m.
In BC, booze can’t be served until 9 a.m. at the earliest; unconsumed drinks must be cleared within a half hour of the end of service.
ummmm wtf is the point if your not allowed to serve or consume alcohol.

Really nice to see the canada's coach go up to US player Knight and their coach to discuss the tripping/shove incident after Canada won.
You can see him talking to them after, showing respect and sportsmanship.
Congrats canada womens team... Just saw the evening replay.

I watched it and I believe what they were referring to was the ban of the French(?) judge at a previous Olympics. It might have been when Canada got ripped off, got silver, then later a Gold which they had to share with another team after the judge outright admited to being bullied into voting for the other team.
anyone have any suggestions where to watch the game tomorrow in Vancouver? Day off tmr!

Wherever it is, make sure there are a lot of hot chicks around......... yesterday, my buddy and I were surrounded by hot coworkers. When the womens hockey team won gold, I got like the biggest hug by one chick who had the hardest pair - I think I still have impressions left on my chest. Friend got a full leg wrap around, LOLOLOLOL.
The only time you can hug someone without getting slapped with a harrassment charge.
Come to think of it, I should charge the chick with workplace harrassment, then settle out of court, :ifyouknow:
