Members Adam Posted February 19, 2010 Members Share Posted February 19, 2010 I enjoy watching it, especially at the Olympics. I sometimes am not entirely sure on how its scored, but everytime I watch it I learn something different. I definitely watch the Medal games. Canada usually does VERY well. Its like Hockey, its gold or nothing for the curling teams in this country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted February 19, 2010 Members Share Posted February 19, 2010 Canada wins against the Swiss in hockey, but barely. Boy was that scary. Memories of 2006 came flooding back.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted February 19, 2010 Author Administrator Share Posted February 19, 2010 That game was so frustrating to watch!! I yelled "Shoot the puck" so many times - way too much passing. And I didn't like that Crosby rarely played the powerplay, and Babcock was changing the lines way too much. Hiller nearly stole that game because he was amazing. Canada better play better against the Americans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted February 19, 2010 Members Share Posted February 19, 2010 Yeah, they are trying to be too pretty with the puck. It was the same with Norway. Patrick Chan did not skate a clean program, but with 7 skaters left he currently sits in 1st with a 241.42..... I don't think he can get a medal, but that is alot higher than I figured he would get after his mistakes. His component score was really high. Maybe a top 5 is possible. Yay Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Toups Posted February 19, 2010 Author Administrator Share Posted February 19, 2010 I know. So frustrating. I hope Patrick does well in Russia. He's only 19 now, so he'll definitely be physcially and mentally stronger in 2014. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members lovely_m Posted February 19, 2010 Members Share Posted February 19, 2010 I'm happy Evan skated very well tonight. Hopefully it will be good for gold *crosses fingers*. Poor Nobunari Oda. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrator Toups Posted February 19, 2010 Author Administrator Share Posted February 19, 2010 No chance of Patrick Chan to medal now. Dice-K goes down! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Adam Posted February 19, 2010 Members Share Posted February 19, 2010 Yes, I think he is very well positioned for Sochi. I was really disappointed Buttle quit before these games.... I guess he felt after winning the World Championships that was enough for him. Chan in 3rd now.... no medals unless Plushenko really falters.... (who are we kidding here) Top 5 would be nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
