2026 Winter Olympics (Milan - Cortina, Feb 6-20)

Looks like we'll get Sweden in the semis. The setup makes no sense. We're the 1 seed, but we play the clear #3 team in the tournament instead of the Swiss-Finland winner who Canada gets.

Another gold and OR for Jordan Stolz. 500M this time.

Braendli is killing it for the Swiss. Through two periods, she's perfect against 24 shots on goal.

Watched women's half-pipe last night. Our gal, with two golds previously, 'slipped' to a silver. As noted by Fungo above, believe only one or two who finished upright (!) did not get a medal. Don't believe any of the podium placers made it down on all three runs....some grissly crashes. Not for the faint (nor me!)

Kid who won had a horrific crash on her first run. I think she was KO’ed, although I didn’t see any confirmation. Big ass girl balls on that one.

Holy shit. Braendli just put in one of the best performances of the games. As a huge underdog, the Swiss win 1-0. Braendli had 40 saves and played the last four minutes against a power play. An epic goalie performance. Swiss only had 15 shots, but one got through.
