Sorry to see Slovakia’s run end. Gripping 3rd period in their overtime loss to Russia the other day.
And the Russians go down to Rask and the Finns! Sweden Finland semi upcoming, US and Canada games starting now
Latvia did pretty well against Canada.
Looks like the finals is going to be North America v.s. Scandinavia
How about Tavares, out for the season. Tough one
Rob Ford celebrating the ladies win:
Brutal. My Isles are cursed I tell ya! Cursed!! :taz:
I don’t expect Canada to advance to the Finals in their semis match against USA. The offense isn’t clicking for the Canadians and beating a team like Latvia 2-1 doesn’t inspire a lot of confidence. I’ll be cheering for my boys, but I won’t be one bit surprised if/when the USA puts 'em down.
Troll. :no-no:
I’ll be at Whalen’s tonight if anyone wants to join Taiwan’s hockey community on this our greatest of nights. Moosehead will be served. 100NT a bottle. Same for Gold medal game (Sunday 8PM) between Canada and Finland (As much as I love King Henry, I think Rask can steal it for the Fins).
Swedes advance! Great game, Finns put up a really good fight.
Sweet, I’m new to Taipei and haven’t been able to find a bar to catch an Olympic Canadian game yet-- I’ll show up at Whalen’s around 12:30/1am and hope to make friends, I guess! Go Canada Go!
If anyone’s looking for the gold medal game in the TianMu Shilin area, Patio84 will have the game on the big screen.
$90 Moosehead, $120 Crown Royal, $10 wings. Case of Moosehead and T-shirt prize for guessing correct score of each period.

Whalen’s was packed and rockin’. Thanks Alex, Clint and that other nameless guy for being such awesome hosts. Thanks Joe for the cheap Moosies.
Can’t wait for tomorrow night when we put those Sedin sisters into the cheap seats. Yes I know only 1 is playing. My disgust at their style of play runs all the way to the press box.

Wait a minute.
Aren’t you one of those Jasonites?
Why would you whinge about the Sedin?
I cannot wait for the gold medal game!! I’m in the Xinyi area and fairly new to Taipei. I just know of Brass Monkey and Whalens (I’ve never been). Which one is better? I want to make sure I can actually see the game and it’s not just a little screen!
Didn’t Canada win the Women’s Gold?
:bravo:
Oh, right, that doesn’t count, now does it. Not enough goon squad to fill up that sodding, rusting, fullsome, can of lard.
Does Whalens have a big screen for the game tonight??
Brass Monkey definitely does. Not sure about Whalen’s, but I don’t think so.
Yes, Whalen’s has a big screen and is the bar of choice for the local hockey players. There are a couple of extra seats available now that our American friends have no interest in watching Olympic Hockey. They are all staying home today downloading their newest citizen’s “body of work” at bieber.com.
Heja Sverige!
