What was once a 3-0 Canada lead is now a 3-2 game with 5 minutes to go.

So the USA has now won 34 medals which ties the USA 's for its best ever Winter Olympics performance and leaves them 2 back of Germany's record of 36. However, the USA is guaranteed at least 2 more medals in Hockey and Men's team pursuit which will tie the record and has a really good chance of medals in Bobsled, and Women's team pursuit plus three medal contenders in the Men's slalom. Looks good for the USA to win the most medals but it very well could be Canada that wins the most golds.

Canada up 2-0 in the 1st period. Looks like it will be the US v. Canada for the Gold on Sunday.

The USA women just pulled off a monster upset in the quarterfinals of the team pursuit (long track speed skating) taking down the gold medal favored Canadians.

6-0 USA, this is amazing.

KANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 4-0 USA

Get owned Finland. 3-0 USA

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Feb 26, 2010 -> 03:16 PM) Parise must be eating what Rafalski is eating lately. 2-0 USA. The US is completely dominating this game and are going to be on another power play.

Wow this game couldn't have started much better.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Feb 25, 2010 -> 10:53 PM) Nordic Combined is my favorite Olympic event and the US has medeled for the first time ever and they have four of them....cool. Really amazing that you can not medal in an event for 86 years and then dominate it the way the US did this Olympics. And Spillane and Demong are only 29 so they could definitely be back for 2014 if they want to.

NBC's coverage really pisses me off sometimes. There is Men's Aerials going on live right now and we are watching a medal ceremony, figure skaters with no chance to medal and a piece on logging. Awesome.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Feb 25, 2010 -> 02:44 AM) Sweden was the much better team too. It's a shame. Sweden out shot them 29-14. 4 goals from 14 shots? Wow. There was a stretch where Slovakia scored 4 times out of 5 shots and the only miss in those 5 shots led to a rebound where Slovakia scored so they basically scored on a 4 consecutive chances.

Sounds like a torn ACL for Hummel, but not official yet.

Huge shot by Grant. Minny will have a chance to win it though. This really turned into a great game.

What a choke by Iverson. Misses a wide open layup to put Minny up 3 which leads to a potential 3 pt play for Purdue.

Ed Hightower seriously sucks btw. I love that the ref right on top of that out of bounds call a little while ago gets overruled by Hightower from 30 ft away and it appeared on the replay Hightower was wrong. I hate that douchebag.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Feb 24, 2010 -> 09:49 PM) They are quickly going to be an also ran. Ill, OSU, MSU, IU, Wisco and prob Minny will be the top tier. Crean really isn't recruiting that well to make me think IU will be in the top tier and really that goes for Minnesota as well.

And Purdue is horrible without Hummel. They are so royally screwed once that JR class is gone. THey have no talent at all in their sophomore and freshmen classes.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Feb 24, 2010 -> 05:21 PM) Pulled it off. Survive and advance is all that matters at this point. Who do people want to play in the semis, Finland or Czech Republic?

Ugh, so lucky for Switzerland

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Feb 24, 2010 -> 12:20 AM) A furious 3rd period rally has sent the Latvia/Czech Republic game to overtime. I thought this game would be a complete blowout, Latvia really wasn't even competitive in the pool play games. This would be an all time upset if it somehow happens. Their goaltender has played an amazing game.

BTW, John Beilein is a dumbass. You have a team that has no good 3 pt shooters and you have your team do nothing but jack up 3 pt shots. Smart coaching.

Hopefully Sweden stops scoring now. The current score would be a perfect result for the US.
