Its almost over for today, but they seem to be doing pretty well against Norway. Their next game is against Canada, should be a good one.

norway didnt even qualify the last 3 olympics brah, brah. They have a grand total of 1 nhl player on their roster. Don't you know anything about hockey, there are 6 teams that have a chance at winning the olympics. United States, Canada, Finland, Sweden, Russia, Czech Republic and slovakia is a long shot dark horse possinbility though still unlikely. No other teams have enough nhl quality players to be able to keep up with the big 6.
Seriously don't you have frozen lakes in iowa, because you got schooled in hockey by a californian. Then again i guess that's what i did to iowans the one time i went there for a hockey tournament lawl.

i dont remember bro i was like 12 years old.
Maybe 16-1 in non-olympic tournament against teams of comparable caliber, but theres just no way anyone can defeat the top 6. Thats just the way it goes.

lol at 12 years old i schooled plenty of other 12 year-olds.
maybe they did say 16-1 but they were just talking about the past 3 years leading up to the olympics. Last 3 they def havfent been in.
The announcers will try to make it interesting cause that's their job. Norway ain't got no chance.

I think it should be a good game against canada. Lots of fights hopefully, but they seem to tone it down for the olympics.

Rollerblading lulz.
It's sad that everything you bring up, is something I was obsessed with.
No wonder my nickname is Inverted
The first time rollerblading at a skate park I was doing backflips after 5 minutes
being a hockey player, you usually rollerblade a lot in the off season. I've never skiid, believe it or not.
but I have been snowboarding for 15 years

I've been rollerblading forever at skateparks. And skiing I have been doing just as long probably. Also skating is something I can do pretty well. Its having my feet attached to one thing that is tricky. Thats why snowboarding is not for me.

It's literally one of the only dangerous sports I haven't participated in.
I tried ski blades but wanted to shoot myself after about 10 minutes.
@ larger turn radius
I donno man. I'd love to board with you sometime, if you are good and can keep up, we would have a bitchin time. I'm just so good on a snowboard that it would be a waste of time for me to try to learn to ski now. Damn man I seriously want to ride with someone else!
And Trip, well it looks like we have more in common than I thought. That would be sweet if we were all rich and could just fly to a meeting spot and hang out whenever we felt like it. I'd be booking a flight to CO right now... lolz

well I guess it depends on your definition of good. if you're talking park with jumps and flips I don't know if I could, I never really got into doing tricks and shit. But if you're talking about just tearing down groomers or bombing some backcountry powder I think you'd be the one struggling to keep up

When I say "good" I mean it, I do a whole lot more than just hit kickers. I like going so fast that your ear drums begin to hurt from the vacuum and deafening windspeed. I'm very versatile, tricks begin to bore me, and kick my ass, so I take it to the double blacks for fun.

meh im going for canada, they are such a pathetic country and i feel sorry for them so might as well let them have this one thing that they're not total shit at.
I know they're alright at curling but how much national pride can you draw from being good at curling, not much, if anything its one of those things where being good at is shameful.

Damn what a game to miss. The US totally got dominated but stupid Brodeur made some costly mistakes. When he swatted that puck out of mid air and had to get back in position but one of our players intercepted it and shot right away and Martin B wasn't ready.
He made another mistake similar to that, where he skated out too much and it bit him in the ass because he wasn't able to get back into position to block the next shot, when he was laying on his belly.
OH well, garbage goals are still goals and we still won according to the scoreboard, but the US did play like shit at the start of the 2nd, they were coasting and swatting at the puck and losing races in the corners. I am truly surprised they skated away w/ a victory tonight. Congrats boys!
