The Sedins and Salo (before his injury but he's ready to come back) are HOT...HOT...Hot and playing in their own rink where they know the ice and the boards. It is with great sorrow and condemnation to the Hockey Gods that I must declare that Sweden is going to win gold.

After the 1st day of competition.

[Canadian Kid]

Day 2 .... note I'm using the official Olympic site for scoring:
http://www.vancouver2010.com/olympic-hockey/schedule-and-results/mens-preliminary-round---group-c-game-5_ihm400c02nSWE-vgame_stats-qo.html

seems to have different stats than most....ie. Iginla had 3 goals in their opener, but this site said he had 2 goals and the other went to Nash (they may change it :tehe:).

Kid

[Canadian Kid]

Day 3 ... some good hockey happening.

The official scoring site has made about 5 scoring changes....mainly Iginla got his hat trick from game 1 and a lot of Czech players have different totals now.

A reminder that shoot outs don't count, so I took off one goal for Crosby's totals.

http://www.vancouver2010.com/olympic-hockey/schedule-and-results/men_ihm400000nCZE-vtour_team_stats-AG.html

any questions, send me a PM.

Kid.

[Canadian Kid]

Awesome job your doing with this CK, just wondering why I haven't been credited with the 2 points of Martin Havlat?

[Canadian Kid]

[Costactc]

Awesome job Burnsy. CK, I still haven't been credited with 2 points for Havlat.

[Canadian Kid]

correction - added in Costactc points....sorry again bud!!!

[Costactc]

Thanks CK but I don't understand how I'm in 12th place now when I was in 8th place this morning. Parise is only showing 3 points, doesn't he have 7?

[Canadian Kid]

someone messing with my spreadsheets???

[Costactc]

Thanks once again CK, I much prefer being in 3rd place.

[Canadian Kid]

Burnsy still on top....Can Miller hold it for you?

(I will go over everyone's picks tonight to make sure I have every player that everyone picked. I will revise the stats for all to see... then I will wait till for the official stats before we determine the Official Olympic Grand Master of Hockey).

Enjoy the game!!!

[PBK402]

Thank you kindly for doing a fantastic job with the Hockey Pool CK,added yet another edge to the ecitement of the game.

What a tremendous finish for the atheletes of 2010!.Whether a hockey fan or not,who can honestly say they weren't glued to the edge of their seat watching Canada & USA battle for 60 minutes!.Not certain but,I may have made the podium myself in the beverage department Sunday :yes:

Congratulations Canada on Gold & most Golds won!

Cheers.
PK

[Canadian Kid]

Okay boys and girls,

I went through all the picks and stats. I found one change and that was for PBK402. He picked S. Koivu and I have shown Selanne. They both had two points so the totals don't change. (I do believe a PM was sent to me to make the player change, so the spreadsheet is correct, but the points are the same).

Remember this is all in fun, so if I have missed something....:rolleyes:

Congrats all - it was a slice!!!

Gold Medal - burnsy <<< ---- "Olympic Hockey Grand Master"
Silver Medal - PKB402
Bronze Medal - costactc
