Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Canada vs. Russia, Other Games GDT

That hot dog looks good. Wonder if I could trade my stick for a hot dog? Damn that is making me hungry. Gotta keep my playing weight up.

Like Christmas sales in July, the gold medal game in men's ice hockey at the Vancouver Games is coming a little early. In the quarterfinals. Loser goes home, the winner has to win one more game to make the semifinals. 

Russia had the last two days off. Canada had to play Germany last night, and the guys with the maple leafs on their chests took out a little frustration on the Oktoberfest lovers setting up what was supposed to be the game of the tournament. Just not today's game of the tournament. Funny how that worked out, canuckleheads. 

We don't have a ton to say before the game. It will be interesting to see how Sidny Crosby deals with the pressure. Same with Roberto Luongo, the new starter for the game after Martin Brodeur shat the bed. 

The Russia/Canada showdown is set for 6:30 CST on the influential sporting channel, CNBC (both C's stand for curling). 

There are other games tonight like Finland fighting Czech Republic to face the American juggernauts. There's also Sweden against Slovakia. Go ahead and hang out here until the quarterfinals are done. Fill up the comments. Make Euro jokes. I don't care. 

O Canada, this is your game day thread. Stand on guard for thee.

Go Russia!

I do love me some Alexander the Great. I live close enough to DC to see plenty of Caps games and he’s an amazing player, plus Crosby annoys me for some reason.

I agree, I love Ovie and dislike Crosby.

Also, bandwagon Pens fans are kind of getting on my nerves.

Especially since

The pens have sucked balls against good teams this year and really had a nice string of luck going to win the cup last year. Otherwise they have been good for…3 years?

Question about today's USA-Suiss game.

Had that Suiss double-poster gone in and had they called it a goal, that would have negated Kessel’s penalty two minutes later, right? Since the clock would move back to the time of the Suiss goal?

Kind of Back to the Future-y…they go back in time and change the present. And Biff turns Hill Valley into a slummy, crime-filled casino hub.

The point is the sport being in its infancy....

women’s hockey is still a new concept. The secret to sucess is, until you develop your own coaches, hiring Americans and Canadians to work on your developmental program. If the other nations are truly commited they will find the money. Look at the Chinese Curling program for your example here.

again, it goes back to money

i just dont see these other countries catching up with the us or canada for the next, say 3 olympics. is it worth it?

women’s sports are more finicky than mens sports. mens sports, by and large, are established. womens hockey is not. there arent pro leagues in North America, and there just really isnt the incentive to play.

by averagejoe on Feb 24, 2010 8:19 PM CST up reply actions  

and that will be the true telling point.....

if China and Sweden say fuck it and don’t spend a dime then it will die and honestly probably should. But China made a decision in several sports in the past (both men’s and women’s) to improve their national teams and they have. They were nothing in curling before very recently and already have earned world championships. It’s a waiting game for the rest of us but premature retiring of sports helps nobody

curling is much cheaper than hockey

and thats one more team. look at the men’s side. czechs, russians, canadians, yanks — all good. hell swedes, finns, swiss etc are all good.

women’s hockey needs about 4 more good teams after canada and use.

by averagejoe on Feb 24, 2010 8:29 PM CST up reply actions  

True....

but again how many good teams were there in 1936? US, Canada, England, and we will say the Germans though that was team of about 17 nations with their conquering and shit. I would say in 8 years if there is no change then there is an issue. Until then it is up to the individual countries to decide how to spend their resources

'I would not be bothered if we lost every game as long as we won the league.'
MARK VIDUKA

by Jstats on Feb 24, 2010 8:31 PM CST up reply actions  

That's not even the issue

Canada could win the gold every year and it would be fine if there were competitive games. In 1936, Canada played a 5-2 game, the US lost to Italy and won 3-0 etc. There was competition.

The US/Canada winning by a combined 86-4 is not.

Not afraid to nitpick

by joker24 on Feb 24, 2010 8:39 PM CST up reply actions  

the point though is

you don’t get there quickly especially with emerging sports. Men’s sport develops more quickly than women’s due to a number of factors that we could debate all night. As stated numerous times before tonight the decision lies with the other national associations. If the teams don’t make the investment then yes it should die. However, if they show improvment over the next 8 years it should continue

'I would not be bothered if we lost every game as long as we won the league.'

Curling isn't anything like hockey

You don’t have to be in shape, you don’t have to be all that athletic, and it isn’t a “grow up playing this” sport……all it seems to take is practice and lots of it and a natural affinity to spinning rocks. Right or wrong, 70% of the country thinks they could be Olympic caliber curlers. That means people think they could do it.

You have to grow up playing hockey to be good. We’re talking 20 years before you’d have anyone with the experience needed and then your program is 1/10 the size so you aren’t going to have a chance still.

Not afraid to nitpick

by joker24 on Feb 24, 2010 8:30 PM CST up reply actions  

But.....

70% of the people are wrong. Otherwise there would be a lot bigger field is regional qualifiers. There is nothign stopping players from other countries playing in the US collegiate ranks. As I have said now many times the future of the women’s game is in charge of the Olympic committees. If they invest in their future and encourage their national team prospects to go to American colleges to elevate their games then improvement will happen.

That's not the point at all

The point is that people think they can be good at the sport. If you tell a 15 year old Chinese girl, do you think you’d have a better chance being an Olympic curler or hockey player…..the answer is curler. Curling has nothing to do with hockey given the experience factor it takes to play hockey.
