I seriously think USA Hockey's gonna win gold. They've shown a LOT of promise these first two games.
Russia (or possibly even Slovakia, they seem strong) vs. USA for the gold with USA coming out on top is my prediction.

isnt the first round of hockey....pointless? doesnt everyone advance anyway? or do i have that wrong?
Everyone advances to more games, but the ranking determines against who, or if they have to qualify at all to the Quarter Finals.11 Bravo wrote:

In other words, winning the group (+best second place) = not having to play the qualifyers -> directly to Quarter Finals. So it matters. Also, the best team of all groups in the preliminary round gets the last entrant into the QF from the qualifying round (best vs worst), so the better you do in the preliminaries, the easier it will be to reach medal games.IIHF wrote:
At the conclusion of the 18-game Preliminary Round, all 12 teams will be ranked in a joint ranking "D". This ranking will be used for seeding the teams in the Qualification Playoff games and will used for calculating the Final Ranking at the conclusion of the 2010 Olympic Winter Games Men's Tournament.
After the Preliminary Round, 1D, 2D, 3D and 4D will receive a bye into the Quarter-finals and will be named as the Home Team for their Quarter-final pairing.
The Qualification Playoff games will be played with the following match-ups (Group E):
5D - 12D (Winner will become E1)
6D - 11D (Winner will become E2)
7D - 10D (Winner will become E3)
8D - 9D (Winner will become E4)
The four winning teams of the Qualification Playoff games will advance to the Quarter-final Round. The four losing teams of the Qualification Playoff games will be ranked 9 through 12 according to their ranking after the Preliminary Round.
The Quarter-final Games will be played with the following match-ups (Group F):
1D - E4 (Winner will become F1)
2D - E3 (Winner will become F2)
3D - E2 (Winner will become F3)
4D - E1 (Winner will become F4)
The Semi-Final games will be played with the following match-ups. The home team will be the higher ranked team as determined at the completion of the Preliminary Round (Group D):
F1 - F4
F2 - F3

Scotty Lago Leaves Olympics After Risque Pictures Hit Web
Scotty LagoVANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) -- American halfpipe bronze medalist Scotty Lago volunteered to leave the Olympics on Friday after risque pictures of him showed up on the Internet.
Lago, who was awarded his bronze medal Thursday night, was at a party, wearing a Team USA T-shirt when somebody snapped a photo of a woman kneeling below Lago's waist to kiss his medal. That picture, and another showing him sticking the medal in the woman's mouth while teammate Greg Bretz looks on, appeared Friday on the TMZ Web site.
Lago apologized to officials at the U.S. Olympic Committee and the U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association and decided to go home.
"Scotty Lago is a great athlete, but with that comes a responsibility of proper conduct, and his involvement in this situation is not acceptable," U.S. Ski and Snowboard Association President and CEO Bill Marolt said in an e-mail. "Scotty realizes his conduct was inappropriate. He has formally apologized and also made a decision to leave Vancouver today."
In the aftermath of several out-of-competition incidents in Turin, one of which resulted in the dismissal of freestyle skier Jeret Peterson, the USOC has made extra efforts to emphasize athletes be on their best behavior when they're at the Olympics.
Before the Beijing Games, the USOC began its "Ambassador Program" that athletes are made to complete before they travel to the games.
Lago was a member of a group of snowboarders called the "Frends," that included Kevin Pearce and Danny Davis, both of whom were badly injured before the Olympics and couldn't make the trip.
"I put all that aside and rode," Lago said.
He said he put together one of the best runs of his life to win the surprise bronze on a night overshadowed by Shaun White and his gold-medal performance. http://olympics.fanhouse.com/2010/02/20 … webmaildl6
its not a up-date pic but USA is still a-head in medal count
just reminding everyone
just reminding everyone

When I went snowaboarding with Lago you could tell he was a loose unit, I don't really know much about that night.
