Final of what?

ahh okay. I know he was talking about Curling but I thought he ended up talking about something else near the end.

I haven't kept up with Curling this year like I normally do. I spread myself to thin taking in new sports that I didn't used to watch before.

Yeah, the Canadian women won gold in curling this morning! Now it's hockey time. :)

Burning Down 02-20-2014 10:33 AM

What the **** is with these penalties for dumb mistakes? 3 power plays for the US so far in the first period, and terrible defence from Canada. Not a very good hockey game so far.

Women's Gold Medal Game

1/2 Hour viewing pass, but I'm at work so at least I get to watch through my lunch break.

Thanks BD.

Well we have gone into overtime!! 2-2 is the score. I have to say, the US is playing a great game.

Burning Down 02-20-2014 12:53 PM

AWWWWWWWW YEAH!!!!!!!!

caps.

Paul Smeenus 02-20-2014 12:57 PM

Great game

butthead aka 216 02-20-2014 01:17 PM

Usa had no chance in the powerplay. They really gave it away by not scorin minutes earlier


But the big showdown will be the men's gm. Sucks its not the gold gm. If canada wins I just hope its crosby dominatin

Burning Down 02-21-2014 10:26 AM

Bergeron and Crosby seems to be a good matchup so far. They're really pushing the puck to the net.

Paul Smeenus 02-21-2014 11:40 AM

I'm working but I found the game on tune-in radio & I'm listening with my Bluetooth. Sounds a lot like the game in Vancouver 4 years ago, with Quick replacing Ryan Miller in net keeping the US in the game. Obviously I'm rooting for the US but if Canada wins I will be rooting for them against Sweden.

Maybe you'll get a bronze.

Nah, we will steamroll right over them, like we did with the American women yesterday. :)

3-2 in OT is a steamroll?

Well no, not exactly, haha. The USA thought they had it in the bag, so they didn't continue to bother towards the end of the game. Proved to be a mistake for them!

Paul Smeenus 02-22-2014 11:11 AM

Well apparently the bronze wasn't terribly important to the men's team.

How about we'll steamroll right over them like Finland did to the US.
