Antone else excited to see some high quality hockey in Torino? Anyone have any comments about the Olympics this year, predictions, and other topics? <p></p><i></i>

Men's hockey is the only competition I will be watching. No more, no less.<br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :smokin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/smokin.gif ALT=":smokin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>The Puck – aka: The self-proclaimed People’s Champion <p></p><i></i>

I'll be watching some of the other events here and there, but I'll be focused on the hockey. The men's is a lot more competitive than the women's. In the women's its pretty much always between the US nad Canda year in and year out, on the other hand the men's has 7 solid clubs. You have Slovakia, the Czechs, Russia, Finland, Sweden, the Canucks, and the Americans. It'll be exciting to see how it all unfolds this year and see how the fresh faces for the US handle the atmosphere that surrounds the Olympics and how the Candians will back up their performance from Salt lake City back in 2002. It will be interesting for sure. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8o --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/nerd.gif ALT="8o"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p></p><i></i>

Have to say - take the blinders of a little. Hockey is a great sport at all levels, but the Olymics is a wide view of many great athletes around the world...so take the time to see some of them in other sports. That's what the Olymics is about isn't it. As for Hockey, the USA needs some good clean games and then a hot goal stop in net. Could be up for grabs as they say if we get hot. <p></p><i></i>
