Patient #48273 Posted February 22, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 His team is one of the best in Canada, but he just doesn't have what it takes to keep it together on the international stage. Same kind of thing happened in the women's tournament. Good curlers who can't manage their nerves. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghent Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Yeah, I don't follow outside of the Olympics, but Shuster has really been terrible the previous two Olympics. Assuming he's typically great, but up until now hasn't been able to perform at the games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MSandt Posted February 22, 2018 Report Share Posted February 22, 2018 Beautiful and oh-so-pleasing victory by the American women's hockey team over the Canadians. Been waiting for this for a long time, and I was so sure Canada would win it again because of the mental factor despite being dominated for the vast majority of the last 40 minutes.

Cheerios4u98 Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 North Korean athletes who don’t medal (so, all of them) might face inprisonment or worse for their failure. That hurts my heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meltdown Tracker Posted February 23, 2018 Report Share Posted February 23, 2018 Didn't watch the game but it looked like a nail biter. Oh well, our women's team had a good run and silver is no slouch. Seeing Sweden and America's mens team go out early makes me even more perplexed as to why they didn't include Pettersson and Gaudette. No brainers, at least as the extra forwards. Teams really dropped the ball on using eligible quality prospects. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah even Finland bothered to send some of our best young prospects (Tolvanen & Heiskanen), but even they couldn't do jack shit when playing against better countries. It's crazy that Germany is in the final. The Russians have no excuse to lose; while other countries can always cry and bitch about not having NHLers, the Russians have Kovalchuk, Datsyuk, etc.; they benefit the most from the absence of the NHL.

Just based on how North Korea has treated returning atheletes in the past. I was reading articles about it the other day. Don’t have the articles on hand but I think I just googled the info.
