Is that USA Hockey president, talking about team USA?

Pretty sure half the rooms have no furniture LOL

You mean team usa already trashed their rooms after being shut out by Team Canada?

@NBCSportsPR: You can now view "Lokomotiv", our doc highlighting the Lokomotiv Yaroslavl hockey team, in its entirety here: http://t.co/T1nO978G0T

Apparently NBC did a piece on lokomotiv for the Olympic show. Get your hankies out...

Maybe this is "unpatriotic" of me being American, but I was kinda pulling for Sweden to win the gold since all the Wings were named (in addition to how much I like how the Swedes run their country, I would definitely move there if I ever become willing to learn another language!).

Don't get me wrong, I was still hoping for the US to pull it off, but I'm not really a "big" fan of any of the US players. I guess I'm just more emotionally attached to the Swedish Wings players than I am to invisible arbitrary lines drawn on the globe.

You put my exact feelings into words. Guld för Sverige!

i'm still sniffing 30 minutes after finishing watching that

[Hockeytown0001 7,652]

Terrible letdown for Team USA . I'm incredibly disappointed.

Refs got to job the women's gold medal game. It's only fair that they get the same opportunity on the men's side.

Pretty sure the ref in the womens final was British....they were making quite a big deal about it on the BBC commentary.

Anyway, my loyalty is pretty obvious for todays game

[derblaueClaus 1,668]

Same here. If only to end the discussion if Kronnwall / Ericsson is a legit #1 D-pairing.

I stayed up all night to watch this game!!
Hope the game lives up to the hype.
Good luck to both teams.

GO CANADA GO!

This is the first real game for sweden after sleepwalking to the finals, as usual.

[Z Winged Dangler 2,082]

Backstrom with a migraine headache...not good.

[Guest RyaN_84]

[marcaractac 3,963]

Drinking this early feels weird

[Z Winged Dangler 2,082]

nice shift by Bergeron.

[peabrain 5]

Backstrom with a migraine headache...not good.

Terrible. That means sweden are without their three most constructive and best players/centers.

Sedin, zetterberg, backstrom.

[marcaractac 3,963]

No scoring on Price until Wednesday, Red Wings!!!

[Z Winged Dangler 2,082]

No scoring on Price until Wednesday, Red Wings!!!

Nyquist came close earlier.

What Finland doesnt count now?

[marcaractac 3,963]

Nyquist came close earlier.

That's what made me bring it up

[DatsyukianDekes 2,428]

1-0 CANADA!

[Z Winged Dangler 2,082]

Bergeron best CAN player so far. Toews finally scores a goal.

[Guest RyaN_84]

1-0!!!!!
WOOOOO

Toews!

[Z Winged Dangler 2,082]

Is it bad that I don't want Crosby to get a single point this game so we don't have to hear about him after the Olympics again?

[miksteri 55]

What Finland doesnt count now?

When have finland counted in anything ever?

[marcaractac 3,963]

I wish it was Glen Healy out with a migraine.
