You are probably thinking of Alexander Borodin's Opera Prince Igor. Sochi has been quite a stage for Russian classical music and if you are interested in the subject you may want to visit our website at www.gclefpublishing.com

Not why I like the games.

It's going to be hard to match up with the amazing Opening and Closing ceremony performances.

i would not put it against Brazil in daubting their ability to create spectacular parties, where Russia got the bombast and muscles Brazil beats them in colours and depth. Elements of amazonas, chapoera, sepultura and copocabana

The lowdown on Carey Price = when he is on, he is on! Probably the most 'in the zone' goalie ever! You have to rattle him early and he can be human but if he starts stoning attackers , you get 2 Olympic shutouts in a row ! Result = GOLD!
Cool

Saw that coming. Should've been Canada vs. Finland. Might have been a game, at least. Never thought too much of Lundqvist because for his entire career I've watch the Penguins score on him so it's fitting that both Sid and Kuni got one today.

The worst call ever was Brett Hull in the crease against Buffalo a few years back, giving the Cup to Dallas !


Also, didn't respond to this earlier because it wasn't really Olympics related but, that wasn't bad call. That was ignoring an insanely terrible rule. They would've been robbing Dallas had that goal not stood. Hull was in no way interfering with the goalie and, frankly, despite being in the paint, wasn't even anywhere near Hasek. That was one of the most pointless rules the league ever had and thankfully it didn't last long. Now, if only the NHL could get back to the way they called games right after the lockout.


Time always wins.

I was very disappointed there was no synchronized swimming on the thin ice of a new day. Tongue

Quote= ''They were definitely in a 1-4 formation there on the ice when they were up 2-0, sitting back,” Wickenheiser said Friday. “Once we got the goal, we felt they deflated quite a bit. And that if we pushed back, they would definitely be susceptible to another goal. it’s the pressure.

“It happens. It’s happened to us numerous times. It’s hard to maintain a two-goal lead. It’s the worst thing in hockey.”

Awesome stuff, that ! Being proud to be American is ingrained since the Declaration of Independence. Most Canadians are fully aware of American history. Yet Canadians are very unknown to most of the USA because we have been humble, quiet and intimidated by our cold weather into being VERY unpatriotic. Its a recent thing, winning Olympic medals and sending down our best athletes (Steve Nash, Ferguson Jenkins, Bobby Orr, Gordie Howe, Justin Morneau, Joey Votto etc...) . Pride in Canada is a very new adventure........Which is why we are so darn happy right now.Headbanger

Indeed Thomas!  We are friends USA and Canada.....if we lose, I'm happy to see Canada beat out the others....

You will enjoy this video Thomas, we welcomed some of the boys down across the border to watch the game....they had a good time on "enemy" turf.  Big smile
