I like the Olympics for sports I don't normally get to watch.
Women's Soccer because Canadian women can field a good team.
Women's Rugby was intense in 2016 with Canada getting the Bronze.
Swimming, Gymnastics, some Track & Field, plus whatever sport Canada is expected to do well.
Love seeing athletes break out like Penny Oleksiak did in swimming. Canadian women tend to kick ass at the Olympics.
NBC's coverage has turned me off from the Olympics over the years. Nothing is ever aired live, the event are broken up for primetime ratings. When I can find a live world feed without commentary, it's awesome. That being said, unlike you, I don't much diversify...I watch the same sports I watch the other three years of the quadrennial. LOL
Gymnastics, figure skating, hockey.
I have noticed that about NBC coverage. Canadian coverage is is great. If North American time zone, you'll have several channels broadcasting various sports all day long, then repeats in primetime. Often a partnership of a couple networks like of CBC, CTV, TSN, SportNet and their affiliate stations.
I've also booked time off work when it was in our time zone.
So...what are the reasons *not* to move to Canada?
You guys getting the raw NBCSN feed? Also, how appropriate that he name gets censored.
Yep, full on NBCSN tonight. Not even the SNET guys for the intermission.
It's funny which games "they" decide will be a hijacked feed + custom intermission vs. completely hijacked. NHLN rarely does any IIHF themselves, just started doing USA games in the last few years. This is why I know the TSN studio team so well.
oh, and apparently you were right - Marc Methot is doing IIHF coverage. Saw that on the tweet machine.

Yeah, I'm a pretty big Olympics fan. I may have been known to book time off work in order to watch in the past....
That would suggest you guys get to watch live during the day. I'm jealous.
oh yeah, CBC pretty much goes all Olympics all day. How "live" the events are depend on where it's being held, of course, but they will cover every event all day.

Wonder what the schedule will be like with the Games in Japan. Working from home means I can stream them on one of my monitors for the recap/replays I guess.
yeah, it's always harder with the time differences, but I can usually find something I haven't seen yet to keep me entertained

Oh, hey, do you guys need a hug? You know, because of Latvia?
I didn't even know until just before this game. Totally forgot that was today. So....
I'm ~45s old since I found out. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Latvia missed at least edit: **three** ENs near the end, one of which was totally a SHOULDA HAD THAT! If Canada had tied it up and then the difference was one of those missed ENs, that would have been tragic.
Worlds could be pretty interesting this year, L-O-T-S of first timers.
edit: added the number, kinda important to the story
