The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.
Since the Olympics (allegedly) have other sports, we might as well get a thread going.
Some sports started today - with the opening ceremony tomorrow.
Canada's off to a rough start:
Canada's three-time Olympic bronze medal snowboarder Mark McMorris crashed Wednesday night during big air training for the Milan Cortina Games and had to be taken off the course on a stretcher.
Does anyone have a list of medal hopefuls or people to watch
Canada's mixed curling pair won their first outing today.
In in an airplane somewhere above our Saskatchewan crew but there are lists out there I might locate and post tomorrow.
Speed skating (short and long), curling (mixed, men and women, hockey (men and women), freestyle skiing, bobsleigh, & ski jumping are events we have solid medal opportunities in.
