So Ice Hockey starts today and I am excited about it. 2002 was some of the best hockey I have ever seen. I even skipped classes so that I could watch the games. USA vs Latvia today

ANybody know what time or times that game will be shown?

**CorpoRasion** · 02-15-2006, 03:18 PM

On the official Olympics site it says 9:05 PM start time. Is that Eastern time or what is that? Anyone?

**SueveDobe** · 02-15-2006, 03:18 PM

Well Helton here is a GREAT website SOMEONE showed me...so I'll show it to you.

http://www.nbcolympics.com/results/1...tml?qs=pt=espn

I'm assuming its all Eastern time cause thats how it always is.

Yeah that's what I thought but Canada already finished their game and it wasnt scheduled to start until 11:35 AM. That makes no sense haha

**DianaDrk** · 02-15-2006, 03:31 PM

Today's USA game starts at 3pm est.

**medifastwoman** · 02-15-2006, 03:58 PM

Today's USA game starts at 3pm est.

Well that's pretty stupid. I dont understand all of those times in the official Olympic website then. I was all excited that the games were going to be in the evening so people who work during the day could actually watch them. Will they replay the games or just accept the crappy ratings they'll receive as a result?

subtract 6 hours to get Eastern time.

The games are going to be shown live on MSNBC I believe.

Those are italy times. If you want the local times, go here and it'll give you the TV schedule: http://www.nbcolympics.com/tv/index.html

Why in the hell would they put the Italy times on the website? That doesn't really make much sense. Well I guess I won't be able to watch any of the games then haha. I get all excited and they show crap in the afternoons. Smart

**Arbinknit** · 02-15-2006, 04:05 PM

I just realized it says "Torino" next to the times on that website.

**nermise** · 02-15-2006, 05:52 PM

Wow, the Czech Republic is getting a hell of a game from Germany.

**Yifnvmzp** · 02-15-2006, 05:54 PM

Supposedly the ice is complete shit, because it's already been mentioned as a big complaint from both teams.

**clomoll** · 02-15-2006, 05:55 PM

Here's another complaint...SHOW THE GAMES ON NORMAL TIMES OF THE DAY. How about that? God thats so aggravating

**SingleMan** · 02-15-2006, 05:58 PM

Um, they are. It's on right now on MSNBC. They're not going to suit the games to US time zones considering the viewership was so bad even when it was in the US.

**bestbyV** · 02-15-2006, 05:59 PM

There's 6 games today. You can't have them all at night!

**Kemapreedasse** · 02-15-2006, 05:59 PM

Hejduk just missed a Penalty Shot on Kolzig. Still 2-1 Czech.

**Frierlovene** · 02-15-2006, 05:59 PM

I think he means when most people are able to watch them. Us working people don't have TV's near by to watch.

**himecthekWiff** · 02-15-2006, 06:00 PM

Once again, this is the Olympics, not the NHL playoffs. They can't just accomodate us.

**Wmshyrga** · 02-15-2006, 06:02 PM

I know. I agree 100% with you.

Do you know if they are going to replay the US game tonight?
