Oxbow6 Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Watching Sports Center...Jeremy Schapp is tough to watch with his analysis of the USA game from this AM. Now Melrose... different story! Quote
Oxbow6 Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 So with things shaking out as it has so far...who is USA likely to play in the quarterfinals? Quote
MafiaMan Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Watching Sports Center... WHAT? Not staying with NBCSN to pick up some fashion tips from Johnny Weir while you watch the couples skating competition? Quote
Oxbow6 Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 WHAT? Not staying with NBCSN to pick up some fashion tips from Johnny Weir while you watch the couples skating competition? My girls watching the skating as we get ready to head to church. My youngest daughter who is 8 just said..."Don't think that boy has a girlfriend. He wears too much make-up." To which my oldest replied..."That's not why!" Well played girls...well played. Quote

That's funny. I realize that Johnny is openly (no pun intended) mocking Putin and his country's laws, but wow... 1 Quote

SiouxScore Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 So with things shaking out as it has so far...who is USA likely to play in the quarterfinals? If Canada or Finland win in regulation it looks like USA would most likely get the Swiss in the quarters in the 3/6 game. If Finland wins in OT/SO I think Canada and Russia would set up as the 4/5 game and USA would get the Czech Republic/Slovakia winner in the 2/7 game. Quote

Tommy want wingey! 1 Quote
Oxbow6 Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Canada and Russia in the 4/5 game? Tommy likey! Tommy want wingey! Wow...that would be fun. Don't think any team in the quarters wants to see Hiller. Quote
SiouxScore Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Canada and Russia in the 4/5 game? Tommy likey! Tommy want wingey! I believe as long as Finland wins no matter if it is regulation or OT/SO it sets up a Russia/Canada quarter but if they do it in OT/SO it would move USA up to #2 and set up a quarter against Czech/Slovakia rather than staying at #3 and probably Switzerland.

SiouxScore Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 If Canada wins in regulation they will be the #1 seed and USA stays at #3, if Canada wins in OT/SO USA moves up to #2 and Canada would get the #3. Quote

Good! That should prevent Canada from tanking it in order to obtain a better match-up in the elimination round. Quote
MafiaMan Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 The traditional sickle of sticks? I see what you did there... Not quite a "sickle" of sticks since they didn't exactly put the "hammer" down on the Slovaks. Quote
Smoggy Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Just to help instead of by individual team. If Canada-Finland goes OT, then USA gets the #2 seed. Quote
farce poobah Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 Crosby with a disgusting dive that draws a penalty on Finland. Selanne calling him out on it, as they go back to the bench. Bravo. Quote

farce poobah Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 And Kyle Rau, er, Sidney Crosby, yaps at Selanne, trying to explain the legitimacy of his flop. LOL I didn't see which referee called the penalty. Pollock (CAN) or Jerabek (CZE). Quote
MafiaMan Posted February 16, 2014 Posted February 16, 2014 What a horrible turnover by Finland...Rask bails the team out there. Finland jerseys...awful. Canada's glossy maple leafs on the shoulders..the red 'rain slicker' effect. Quote
