Go Leafs Go!!

With the NHLers involved the whole country would be pretty much shut down right now. This year, many including myself, don't know the game is on or who they're playing.
Have to admit as much as I love the Olympics I find this one to be very difficult to follow.
I don't mind using the PVR and avoiding spoilers to watch but I'm finding that with some many channels I never know who's televising what.The time zone is part of that. Definitely NHL will take some attention away, especially with the way the Leafs are playing. However I think that combined with the horrid time zone makes it worse.
I could spend time watching Canada if most events were during the day or early evening but it’s not
I’m more interested in amateur Olympic Hockey than when the NHLers go. This adds a level of “anything can happen”.
The women’s hockey so far has been great too, though the reffing has been questionable to say the least
Amateur Olympic hockey? LMAO
Have you even looked at the rosters? The players are just about all professional (I really don't know how scrub teams like South Korea and Slovenia fill out their rosters). They are all professional hockey players employed by leagues in Europe/Russia.
The myth that when the NHL players don't go, the Olympics are all about "plucky amateurs trying win on the big stage" is silly. I mean, the average age of Team Canada is over 30.
Canada’s 25-man roster does boast 5,544 NHL games played, led by captain Chris Kelly’s 833 outings with the Boston Bruins and Ottawa Senators. Lee and fellow defenceman Mat Robinson are the only players without NHL experience.

I couldn't care less, I barely even remembered they were playing hockey in these Olympics LOL.
This sums up the 2018 Olympics perfectly.I couldn't care less, I barely even remembered they were playing hockey in these Olympics LOL.
No NHL players ruined it for me.This sums up the 2018 Olympics perfectly.
