Pyeongchang Spoilers: Tomorrow's Competitions, TODAY!

Caught part of the CAN/Czech game via the streaming app and then caught the last of it on TV. Are the streaming announcers different?

And is streaming the only way to get rid of the Golden Sombrero trio of Alberta, Milbury, and McGuire?

I stream on the NBCSN app on Roku and get them for all Team USA games. I haven't seen a feed that lacks their dazzling insight.

Pretty good chance we end up with Slovakia, but it depends on if Switzerland can win or get to OT against Czechia (when is that gonna catch on?).

Yes, but only for games not involving USA
 
Re: Pyeongchang Spoilers: Tomorrow's Competitions, TODAY!

Clearly, the US men are not winning a medal. That was brutal to watch.

Sadly, with the NHL players, the US probably wins that one 5-0. Thanks owners.
 
Re: Pyeongchang Spoilers: Tomorrow's Competitions, TODAY!

What the hell was the NHL thinking? Those guys need to participate. Who's call was that to refrain from taking a break to allow for the Olympics?

Also, call me crazy but I would take the best 26 NCAA players any day of the week over the USA roster. Granato and Chelios have a not much to work with.

Aren't these guys minor leaguers tho? Surely there's enough talent at that level to put together a decent team. Or was the NHL not letting anyone under their contracts to participate?

Should have gone all college players.

I think it was a political game for USA hockey. They probably didn’t want to pull out 23 college kids from all their rosters for 2-3 weeks. I’m sure the schools would have loved that in the stretch playoff run.

They used to pull them out for the entire season or post 1st semester. Centralization would have helped, but in this day and age, it would have been almost impossible to get the schools, players, and advisors to agree.

Good Glory- Schuster is a yard sale. 1st end and he wants to try for a 3 on a risky shot. NOOOOOOOOOoooooooo! THe dude can't hit the side of a barn. Take the one point and run.
 
Re: Pyeongchang Spoilers: Tomorrow's Competitions, TODAY!

Also, the NBC Sports app on Xfinity is awesome. I can’t watch this match without commercials OR commentators right on tv.

Fenson is the only tolerable person on that network. They have a super boring sounding Canadian on a few of the replays but he’s great at balancing the basics with the in depth analysis. He did the replay of the us women vs Russia.
