So it looks like (though we still have 2 periods to play) it's gonna a Blackhawk (Kane) against at LEAST 2 Blackhawks for the gold. (Hossa/Kopecky or Keith/Seabrook/Toews) Gonna be fun to watch.

 

So thats at least 3 players that probably wont be playing Tuesday against the Islanders.

 

For all the b****ing about how uneven the womens hockey is, two of the last 4 mens games have been lopsided and over in the 1st period too

Wow. And I thought Canada's performance against Russia the other night was some kind of statement!

It'd be different if Finland was on the level of Russia, and Finland actually had any kind of player come to play the sport of hockey in the 1st period.

But this is a different caliber of beatdown. This game was over in 15 minutes, you can't say that about the Russia game. It's not like Russia showed up in the first either.

Well, if Nabokov was bad, then I don't know what adjective describes Kiprusoff and Backstrom in the 1st period.

Just like both games, the goalie was pulled way too late. Kipper should have been pulled when he let in the third goal on what 5 shots.. They left him in before pulling him down 4-0.

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.
