Here is something I've always wondered about: how come Norwegians suck so much at hockey?

They spend all their time making awesome curling uniforms to wear

As a betting man, I will put my money on teams with good goalies (Sweden/Finland). Small tourneys are often decided by the fact who has hottest goalie. Also with little time, its easier to get ur def organized then the attack.

Every relevant team has good goalies.

If you want an extra little bit of schadenfreude to look forward to, the gold medal game this year falls on my birthday. So if Canada makes it, and loses, you can smile knowing that somewhere in Canada I am crying into a beer at like 7 am on my birthday.

Any recomendations on which games to watch, I like to watch the sport with olympics but I don't really know a lot about it :D.

Should be lots of good games tbh. The group stage games probably won't be terribly exciting, but really any game that doesn't have (Slovenia/Latvia/Austria/Switzerland) should be pretty high-level and fun. The 4 I mentioned aren't really on the same level as the rest IMO.


Missed how we wiped the ice with everyone except the fucking Sedin twins at the WC last year did you? really hurts my national pride

I like Switzerland as much as the next guy (hell, probably more considering I've actually spent a month there) but the chances of the Swiss games being as interesting as some of the more "premier" matchups seems limited. If an underdog makes it deeper into the tournament, which seems to be quite common these days, then their games could be good

Actually Switzerland is the underdog team I always cheer for. They find ways to win and upset. I really admire the cohesiveness switzerland always demonstrates on the international stage. They probably have my favourite jersey too.
If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the precipitate.

This OP is biased.
Y'know sometimes people ask me y'know like "What's your religion and stuff?" And I'm like "y' know it's like RTS." Uh, and they're like, "What's that?" And I'm like, "Y'know it's kinda like, kinda like Buddism."
