Not to nitpick, but they are playing Sweeden! I actually prefer the women's O hockey to the men's! The women play more of a "team" game than the men's "all-star" team does!

Listen, I love hockey, men's and women's. But that was like watching the Patriots play Nantucket High. I couldn't even watch it.

We are gonna tear up the mens this year too!
In Canada,hockey is our religion.

Actually, the US women's team is traditionally stronger, as the women's program is more developed in the US than in Canada. The amount of college women's hockey programs has led to an increase in younger girls playing the game, something Canada has only recently begun to develop.

i will start to look the men's on 22.02 (quarter finals).

on 24.02 there will be the semi-finals and for the gold: 26.02.

finally, for me, 'normal hours'...

when i see the NFL more or less is always NIGHT excepted the h 01,00 pm games...

ps = who is the favourite ? Canada ? Usa ? or Europeans (SE, FI or CZ ?)

Are you on drugs? Canada is something like 44-4 against the U.S. in women's hockey. Maybe that's an exaggeration, but they have traditionally kicked our ass. Our first win wasn't until 2000, I don't think. And women's youth hockey in Canada far predates the U.S. They had 2 professional women's leagues in Canada earlier this decade, 90% of whose players were Canadian.
