puckMAN 01-27-2006, 06:12 PM Who will be satying up all night each night to watch the games?I know I am I live in the MT time zone so games start at 3:00 AM for me,I don't think the networks of NBC are showing replays of the hockey games so this is the only way to catch all the games.
12# Peter Bondra 01-27-2006, 06:45 PM I stayed up during the World Cup and the 02 Olympics.
These Olympics are thankfully in my time zone.
Alessandro Seren Rosso 01-27-2006, 06:47 PM In italy they'll broadcast nothing so i won't do :(
Holly Golightly 01-27-2006, 06:48 PM Oh you better believe that my lame butt will be up all night watching the games!! I'm in good old Mountain Time as well.
WOO HOOOO, bring on the caffeine!!
:handclap:
joe_shannon_1983* 01-27-2006, 06:48 PM I am in Eastern Time Zone. Thus, I won't have to stay up all night to watch games.
I will, however, have to get up pretty early some mornings to watch games, which I plan to do. It is during my winter break from school, so that makes it better.
Holly Golightly 01-27-2006, 06:52 PM In italy they'll broadcast nothing so i won't do :(
You're joking right? They won't be broadcasting anything? Is that because they expect you to be at the games? Hmmmmmmm....
steafo 01-27-2006, 06:56 PM Sounds like they are taking a page out of Wirtz's book
Alessandro Seren Rosso 01-27-2006, 07:01 PM You're joking right? They won't be broadcasting anything? Is that because they expect you to be at the games? Hmmmmmmm....
Well...it's not that they won't broadcasting anything at all...i meant that they dont give a **** about hockey.
And being at the games...can a person attend 54 games in two weeks? I can't afford 1 game at that reddicolous price, imagine 50+ of em...
helicecopter 01-27-2006, 07:02 PM In italy they'll broadcast nothing so i won't do :(C'mon, who told you so!? That's not going to be true.
(disfattista!! :) )
Steadfast 01-27-2006, 07:02 PM Not going to stay up all night... I'll just set my alarm for the Canada games. The first game against Italy as at 4am my time.
Subway Schenn 01-27-2006, 07:05 PM I can't wake up early in the morning, so yep, I'll definately be staying up all night to watch the games.
shawn_kemp* 01-27-2006, 07:20 PM I stayed up during the World Cup and the 02 Olympics.
These Olympics are thankfully in my time zone.
I had to get up at 4.30am during the Nagano Olympics, I had to stay up at night until 6am to watch Salt Lake.
These Olympics are finally in my timezone!!! :yo:

You gotta be kidding me! The round robin games are 40 euros! Is that expensive?
helicecopter 01-27-2006, 07:32 PM You gotta be kidding me! The round robin games are 40 euros! Is that expensive?Yes, actually it is. 40 euros it's for the cheaper tickets, in the PalaIsozaki that means seats in the shorter side of the standings (behind the nets) and 40 euros for that kind of places is pretty much. And the prices become very high in the next phase btw.
That said, i think kidhander could and should have bought at least one!
SChan* 01-27-2006, 07:45 PM I wish the olympics was at a better place. No one in italy seem to care. Germany would have been much better.
Leo Naphta 01-27-2006, 07:46 PM I wish the olympics was at a better place. No one in italy seem to care. Germany would have been much better.
Not to mention Sweden... ;)
shawn_kemp* 01-27-2006, 07:49 PM no one in Italy cares, but who cares as long as the arena is sold out, and that all of Canada, Russia, Sweden, Czech Republic, Finland, Slovakia and USA are watching???
Hedberg 01-27-2006, 07:55 PM I can't wait. I'm in the Pacific Time Zone, so the Gold Medal game is 5 in the morning.
puckMAN 01-27-2006, 08:03 PM I can't wait. I'm in the Pacific Time Zone, so the Gold Medal game is 5 in the morning. Looking at your location the 2010 games are right in your own backyard so you can make up for it then.
helicecopter 01-27-2006, 08:26 PM I wish the olympics was at a better place. No one in italy seem to care. Not so true.. kidhander is Italian for example and is not the only Italian hockey fan on these boards! ;)
Alessandro Seren Rosso 01-27-2006, 08:48 PM Not so true.. kidhander is Italian for example and is not the only Italian hockey fan on these boards! ;)
Well...yeah i love hockey and so do a lot of italian people but one can't state that italy is a hockey-loving country :shakehead :(
Tricolore#20 01-27-2006, 08:52 PM Helicecopter is another awesome Italian fan.
I think its almost better that the games are in a neutral venue for hockey, especially after the laughable World Cup where the semis and final were played in North America, and where Canada and the US played every game at home, while every other team had to travel. This is going to be a great tournament, where those excuses will not be applicable anymore.
Chileiceman 01-27-2006, 08:53 PM In italy they'll broadcast nothing so i won't do :(
You'd think that the country in which the olympics are in would be the country that would most show the olympics on TV.
In Chile no one knows that there is such a thing as winter olympics, so I don't think I'll be watching too many games :cry:
helicecopter 01-27-2006, 09:15 PM Well...yeah i love hockey and so do a lot of italian people but one can't state that italy is a hockey-loving country :shakehead :(Never tried! ;)
Helicecopter is another awesome Italian fan.:eek: :allears:
Thanks man!!
:yo: :naughty:
ALF AmericanLionsFan 01-27-2006, 10:38 PM Won't be staying up all night,but I will get my butt to bed early so I can get up and watch the games before work. Can't wait for the Olympics. Just too bad so many guys will be missing due to injuries.
Stevedude530 01-27-2006, 10:45 PM Most of the US games are at a managable time for me. 3 PM, 10 AM on Saturdays, so I'll manage.
