Is Canada's women national hockey team choking or Finland looking really strong? Still 0-0 in 2nd.

Holy fuck nbc. Turn your commercial volume down
Looked like his skate was just before the line at 34.72, so he would've hit it a fraction of a fraction of a second later.

Pack it up other countries, we're winning the medal count this year.
Oh wait, we're like half trough with the speed skating events
We'll be in the top 3 and about halfway through the Olympics we'll just stop getting any medals and slide off into hopefully 6th or 7th.
Yeah that's totally not on purpose or anything.

Finland is a good team. Canada seems to be outplaying them so far, but the Finnish goalie is incredible.
As a side note, the officiating is annoying.

Go Finland! Beat Canada!
I think Finland is supposed to have a good team this year.

I think I heard Cassie Campbell say that Finland was 'back to how good they were in the 90s' when 'we'd lose to them by 1 goal'.
Game looks pretty even.

But CAN-USA good? I highly doubt it. USA dispatched FIN relatively easily, which indicates that there is still a gulf between the top 2 teams, unless Canada is just not having a good day today.

What happened to Geisenberg? Did she run?

John Shuster chokes again shocker
She hasn't had her second run yet. But right after I posted that Hamlin had a great run, Huefner beat her time.

I wouldn't say that the US dispatched the Finnish team with ease. They're a good team and their goalie is really good.
As for the Can-USA comparison, the stats (after two periods) are similar for both games, the difference obviously being the score.

Yep - saw that. Hopefully she pulls it off in runs 3 and 4. Would like to see the German domination come to an end.

It's Finland's goalie, Raty.
She is arguably the best female goaltender in the world and is keeping Finland in the game big time.
Definitely going to need some gifs of those moves.
Here's the history of sweeps btw. We tied Germany now ^^
One trick country...
We're sweeping USA of the ice right now btw

Yeah.
The first half of the game was kinda close, but now it's just Raty vs Canada.
Fake edit: Finally!

2 sweeps, nice. But skating is all we have to offer on the winter stage. Which is too bad as I love to watch slopestyle snowboards and Ice Hockey.
