The Canucks haven't been able to come together up front and I think they'll have a real tough time getting enough scoring from the blue line to beat the US. Let's hope they didn't have a fire lit today with another close call.

As much as I want to think we have the upper hand Canada is still Canada and they will be ready for us. I expect a pretty tight low scoring game. Hopefully Quick can display some of his 2012 form.

Man how great are the semis going to be? Biggest rivalries in international hockey (Swedes/Finns, US/Canada) playing to get to the gold medal game? Gonna be cool

I can't wait for the Women's game today. Actually home sick and it's one of the few times I can remember being happy about feeling like crud, cuz I'm home from work and can watch the game.

Game should all come down to speed. If the US can use their speed on the big ice to get to the middle and break down the Canadian D, US wins. If the Canadians can keep the US to the outside and defend the middle, Canada wins...

Canada is going to try and be physical. If the ref's don't let the cheap stuff and the grabbing go the USA team should have plenty of power play opportunities.

I hope for good goals and a good game. I hate to see games with so much at stack decided by a fluke goal or ref's that don't want to call obvious penalties.

Go USA Men and Women!!

Just checked in on the Women's gold, the girls are flying out there, I'd hate to see what I would look like on that ice right now. blush

I remember the first time I saw girls hockey, many years ago and I was not impressed at all, but I will tell you (which you already know Im sure) they have come a LONG way in a few short years.

Man can these women (and girls) flat out play hockey now! So impressed.

USA is up 1-0. Keep it up gals!!!

And yes, I am with you, they would skate circles around me at this point in my career too. You would think I would be in a lot better shape for doing nothing but drink beer and eat hot wings all winter. :-)

I know right?

2-0 lead and 10 minutes to go, can't ever count out Canada but I like our chances.

The USA seemed to go back on thier heels and play all defense the last 7 minutes and sure enough, gave Canada enough time inside the USA zone and something bad will happen.

I was hoping the USA would oplay the game that got them the 2-0 lead.

Too bad the puck had to hit the pipe.

Now I would guess the USA is rattled and down and they will have to pull out everything they have to hold a pumped up Team Canada from scoring.

    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
