Seadragon76 Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 So, how about them Germans? Who would of thought that it would be them against 'Russia' in the Men's Ice Hockey Gold Medal Game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who would of thought that it would be them against 'Russia' in the Men's Ice Hockey Gold Medal Game? Was up watching the game. Canada came out a bit lethargic and Germany was incredibly opportunistic and the bounces went their way. After up 4-1, I though Canada would win after Germany basically went into a shell just hoping to hang on. Still got the penalty shot. Though, for Germany, 2 minutes of killing the clock on the power play probably would have worked better and been the better result. Makes the Men's game a bit less interesting. I mean, can Germany do it again? OAR has played well and a Canada-Russia matchup seemed destined to happen. Oh well. Will Canada win Bronze? Women's hockey loses gold, women's curling doesn't qualify and men's curling goes out thanks to Team USA and then whiffs on the Bronze. And now Men's Hockey is in a stupor going after the Czech Republic for Bronze. Will they lay an egg, too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's funny is that outside of hockey and curling, Canada is having one of its best olympics ever. But because they failed in the two sports they care about most, it probably won't be looked at as such. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac the Knife Posted February 24, 2018 Share Posted February 24, 2018 An interesting statistic... NBC is (already) reporting that 77,000 people live streamed the USA-Sweden curling final, which had a start time of 1:35 a.m. here on the U.S. east coast. Traditionally, live streaming audiences tend to represent about 2% of the overall viewing audience for sports events. If this holds true in this case, it means that the gold medal game drew between 3.5 and 4 million U.S. viewers in total. Or about half of what Game 7 of the 2011 Stanley Cup Final drew - in primetime. Those would be some impressive numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So if there's others like me, the numbers may be a little off. Congrats to the US curling team though. Unfortunately I fell asleep and missed the second half of the match, only to wake up right when they were awarded their medals. I have a feeling these guys are going to be everywhere over the next few months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEAD! Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 I suppose given the history of a German attack on Russians in a cold environment, it's going to be a long game for the Germans. I saw, I came, I left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozzyman314 Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 Unfortunately, Deutschland is just going to have to be happy accepting their gold medal by default once the "Russian" team is found guilty of doping.

Not the best choice, but it got me thinking... What were they going to play for the Canadians? "Tom Sawyer" if they won in regulation, "Takin' Care of Business" in the event they worked overtime. ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
habsfan1 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 OAR won the Olympic Gold Medal in men's hockey. I missed the game. Did they play any music or raise some sort of flag? I know they can't have the russian stuff so what did they use? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They played the Olympic anthem and raised a white flag with the Olympic rings on it, but the players sang the Russian anthem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
