Too many US penalties.

and just paid for that one..

Watching this USA-Russia game...Dustin Brown is an idiot.

Why the puck is he even on their team? He's horrible, has done nothing right so far this year, both in the NHL and now the Olympics.

Crawford has to get that one.

That's a terrible call.

Edit: Unless the net was off the moorings.

Lucky - and terrible - call.

In Russia.

Against Russia.

Wouldn't have happened 30 years ago.

Wow, Russia get's ripped-off by the officials on a good goal. B effing S....

Was it? I was so engaged on the high stick issue (there didn't appear to be a deflection at all) that I didn't notice this. Want to see it again.

No - net was on the moorings but up off the ice - apparently that's the international rule - unlike the NHL.

NHL rule is better.

Yep, but oh well.

This is a pretty big deal of a PP chance here...

Thanks for the info. I wasn't aware of this rule difference. Agree that the NHL rule is better.

Ogi's wrong - Al's right: game between two good teams results in excellent hockey.

That's what Olczyk said.

Problem is - Quick was the one who dislodged it.

Two great stops by Bob on Kaner...

Kane - excellent chances, can't finish.

Good - an Ogi finish in the Ogi games.

To decide a game of this caliber by SO is disgraceful. Sad.

Apparently a shootout is known as a series of 'game-winning shots', per BBC...


God damnit I hate this coverage

I guess so...a shootout is crap, whatever you call it.

It is crap - but this is great theater - great drama.

Is it just Kovalchuk vs Oshie...

Edit: And Oshie wins it on seemingly his 7th or 8th attempt

Do you believe in....
