It's still doesn't quite have that Olympic feel unless it's 3am.

True, but then they also play the gold medal game at 7am on Sunday morning. I love my late night hockey, but who wants to risk missing big games when it's on too late... early

It would be tough to watch that game if it were to happen. Iginla vs. Kiprusoff on a breakaway would be a dilemma. I would be wearing the Flames jerseys with pride. Canada vs. Sweden, without a doubt it would be nice to see the Sedins get pasted to the boards all game long and lose 10-1.

Didn't that get changed? Many fans were getting confused when the clock counted upwards and the penalties counted downwards. I think the IIHF changed it.

lol, Forsberg shouldn't even be on the olympics, he just doesn't have it anymore, guys, their playing Germany and hes looking decent? Wow. :P

Seriously, Forsberg didn't even know what to do in Euro Hockey Tour (Finland, Sweden, Czech Republic & Russia - 4 land tournament, with European players) his movement was poor then, also he's been injured all the time, he's playing injured right now also, but it seems like Swedes are hoping that he even brings the old Forsberg there even for a moment, could happen, but unlikely.

That was some awesome late night hockey last night. What a pace to the game. Jagr even looked pretty good, it must be the mullet that gives him his power.

Nice to see Hagman pot a couple. Showed some slick stick handling.

People have been dramatically undervaluing Hagman with all the "we traded player X for second and third liners". He is a legitimate top line player! It should be no surprise he is doing well.

I'm very glad we have him for another two years at 3 M!
