There most certainly has to be.

Capitalism is dead. Long live Capitalism. Goodbye my country, my Constitution, you made me at once proud to add to your ranks, and regretful that I had done so. If it were not for you both, man would not be so spoiled, ignorant and indignant; you saved mankind and doomed it to oppression unimagined.

Canada's D is pretty hot and the team's confidence is high. That's a tough combination to crack, but it's still only 1-0.

Another PP, do something with it.

Wow, what a game.

I like the organist...Sabres game day crew take note.

Good period. Each side can only attempt what amounts to a bombing raid on the other and then they're turned around. I'm loving the puck battles all over the rink.

You know what we're not seeing? No dump and chase; it's all about possession and keeping possession as long as possible.

You make it sound so innocent and congenial. As if Obamacare were a puppy and those who don't like it are people who kick puppies.

I like Starbucks. They have changed their "house" over the years, but it's far better to me than Timmy Ho's or most other places. Actually, for my coffee, I prefer either of two sources: Wegman's whole espresso beans or Premier's Italian espresso beans. With either, I grind the beans at home and use that as my coffee. I also like REALLY hoppy beer.

Praise Jesus. Praise Allah. I DON'T GET THE TIMMY HO'S COFFEE ADDICTION. That coffee just sucks major wewqjhlenaajsfnas.

It's pretty obvious they lost the match at the end of the third. The entire OT fiasco would not have happened if they just kept their focus for the last 5 minutes.

Someone needs to taint Team Canada's pre-game mac and cheese to assure a win for the USA.

I knew when USA was hugging each other at the bench with 5 minutes to go in the third it spelled trouble. When will these coaches learn Alamo Mode is not a sound defensive strategy? USA lost this when they sat back in the last 5 of the third thinking they can D it all the way home. Doing so gave the refs the green light to influence the game and give Canada the gold. I'm sickened by the whole thing.

That one girl looks like Tyler Ennis. The refs completely suck.

OMG what a crappy call.

Huge PP here... HUGE!

Here we go! OMG. What chances!

Oh no!

TENSE TENSE!

Last 5 of the girls game: AAAAARRRGGGGHHH! Nice hockey!

Any nation that butters their hamburger buns doesn't deserve a gold medal.

The USA is going to win because we have sewage treatment plants.

Hmmm, let's see... This guy, Ted Nolan, says here he's a hockey coach: Prior experience. Check. Ability to squeeze proverbial water from proverbial rock. Check. Demonstrable International and NHL coaching accomplishments. Check. Unarguable untapped potential. Check. Accepted and respected by fans. Check. Primary choice of Sabres' President of Hockey Operations. Check. Well, but does he have a few years to kill while we straighten this team around? This doesn't say anything about long term commitments.

Both teams are stacked with talent, so I think that parameter is a wash. I think Bylsma is in a zone with his coaching right now, while Babcock and crew are not. Team Canada did not look hungry versus Latvia, whom they should have steamrolled (regardless of Latvia's goalie). I think this is a result of the lack of team chemistry for the Canadians and Babcock is having a hard time because of that. Team USA is much more of a "team" and I believe that is what puts them over Canada two days out. If Team Canada can gel over the next few days, it could make things interesting. Being right on the border, I can attest that USA beers, thanks to the microbrews, are far superior to Canadian beers.
