Alas not for years now. She is happy in her life I think and does not wish to be disturbed. I am ok with that and will always have fond memories of her and the time we knew each other. She really was a lovely person to know and I feel fortunate our paths crossed. Hey ho...

If he enjoys the money also you shouldn't ! I am sure she does more to earn more not because she can't get enough of d***.

RE: supertricky question

So you are a guy and played in video with your friend's wife and want to know if you should tell him that she does more than just chat or whatever the agreement was? Did I understand correctly?

I don't even know how to answer you assuming I read your post correctly, but you, your friend, and your friend's wife all have some serious issues to deal with if I did. :p

Everyone get off your high horses. People like taboos. If the wife is hot I would be all over that.

Keep it to yourself and just keep going in to see her. This is hot!! I have a few friends wives I'd love to see here.



Reply

RE: supertricky question

Wow, this really IS a super tricky question. It will be interesting to see how people respond. The way I see it, there's a problem with your question. You're automatically assuming that your friend DOESN'T know his wife is working online -- but maybe he does. Maybe this is something they agreed to, so she could earn some spare money to help with bills at home. But here are 3 possibilities I'd consider...

1) As I said, your friend could already know she works here, but unfortunately they never really counted on this happening. They never really planned what they would do IF someone they personally knew accidentally stumbled upon her. So you could tell him, but you wouldn't be revealing any big secret.

So -- at best -- now he and she would simply get a little red faced that you know too, at which point they'd say "Shhh! We needed money and we're embarrassed enough as it is. Please keep this a secret and don't tell any of our other friends." However -- at worst -- once you tell your friend that you saw his wife online, then obviously the next thing he's going to say will be: "Wait a minute! Once you realized it was her, did you STILL make her strip ? If you KNEW it was my wife, why didn't you respect her and walk away? And for that matter, why did you anonymously play with my wife, you pervert!" At that point, odds are your friend is quickly going to become your EX friend. So I hope the show was worth it!

2) On the flip side, maybe your friend DOESN'T know what she's up to, which is a whole other story. I know some hosts won't like hearing this, but then you might actually be doing him a favor by telling him the truth. A while back on the message board there was a big debate when a host posted that she works here online...her hubby doesn't know...and she likes sex so much she even meets her guests on the side to fuck them. In that debate, it was interesting to see how quickly the battle lines were drawn and how it became a big moral debate. The question was simple -- IF you knew a friend's spouse was cheating on them, should you tell them?

In this case, the wife might only be working online. Or like I said, maybe she's trying to make a little money on the side. Maybe her hubby doesn't give her enough spending cash at home -- to buy some of the things she'd like -- so this was her best way of secretly earning some money for herself.

On the other hand, I have to admit there is an intriguing temptation to go back and see if the wife IS secretly trading emails or having Yahoo chats and getting extra personal with her guests, right down to meeting them and fooling around on the side. If that were true, then you would be doing your friend a big favor by tipping him off to the secret life his wife is leading behind his back. After all, no one likes to be cheated on. Plus, think of it this way -- what happens if someone ELSE spots her online or even meets with her and THEN your friend finds out? What are you going to do when he says "Did you have any idea she was doing this or that she was cheating on me?" How awkward will it be THEN when you're forced to admit "Well, actually I did know. In fact I've been jerking off to her on cam myself for a while now."

3) Finally -- and I'm betting most people will answer this way -- you could just walk away. You could never go back and see her again since she is your friend's wife. You could keep your mouth shut about discovering her online. You could simply say: "This is their business and I'm staying OUT of it completely."

RE: supertricky question ~ enon

I think the most telling thing about this tale is the phrase "I couldn't resist". If you really were a friend to either her or him or both then you COULD have resisted.

Far as I can see you are no friend worth having if you behaved like that. Lying is never good at the best of times, but you lied to her, you will be lying to your 'friend' every time you talk to him and frankly can never be trusted at all.

There is nothing wrong with friends seeing other friends get naked or strip if they do so by accident or mistake. I know for myself this has happened a few times but it tends to be I am more embarrassed to see them and be forced to think of them in a way I am not comfortable with, then they are for me to see them, given they are chathosts and that is what they do.

I think deep down you are just plain jealous of your 'friend' and the fact you are willing to deceive either of them to get your jollies speaks volumes about you as a character.

Tricky question? No. A tricky liar? Yes.

RE: isnt that maybe a fantasy of yours? ~ Experienced host

Hmmm.. not sure I follow you there. Fantasy in what part? That friends on the whole try not to deceive each other and are trustworthy? Or about my own embarrassment?

I have many fantasies for sure. But being a dreamer or a romantic is not yet a crime to my knowledge. Still, if I were, to be locked up for thinking of an ideal world... I can think of worse crimes.

You should never feel guilty for dreaming your dreams. They are a unique thing about you that you that no one should be able to take away.

RE: clarify

I would tell him his wife does GREAT shows and I happened to enjoyed it. Anyone can see her. It's not spying, its her work and he is a member of this site. His friend shouldn't had told him in the first place if he didn't want him to see his wife. If he feels like telling his friend, I would go ahead and do it. I did when a friend of mine told me his wife decided to come back and work here and made him believed she never stripped in vid, not even in 121, lol. Did he get angry at me? No! He thanked me for letting he know what his baby really did in vid. Did he ended our friendship? No, that's what friends do. Take care of each other. BTW, they are still together and she still works here, but doesn't do shows anymore.

If the wife show her stuff at cc then its no big deal to her you or anyone check her do it, she already shown to 100s others. what is the big deal? But why tell the husband, he can easily find out himself what the wife doing if he wants to.

Reply

Enon, you need to clarify MORE

Wait...wait...wait. This story gets stranger by the post. When you started this, you made it sound like you found the wife online by accident, at which point you were wondering if you should tell your friend (the hubby). But based on your post up above, NOW the story has changed and you're telling us that your friend (the hubby) TOLD YOU she works here. You're also claiming that he didn't (or wouldn't) give you her screen name.

But that makes no sense (at least not to me). WHY would he tell you she's working here, but NOT give out her screen name? What, he's willing to tell all his friends that his wife is doing cam work -- he's even willing to name the site she's working at -- but then he doesn't think anyone would go looking for her? That's pretty dumb. Seriously, it just seems to me that your friend (the hubby) would do one of two things...

Either (1) he'd want his wife's cam work to be kept a secret, since he WOULDN'T want any of his buddies to check out his wife while she's working... OR... (2) he'd have no problem with her being online (which would explain why he told you she's here), at which point it would only make sense to ALSO give out her screen name, so you COULD chat with her and help her to make money. Like I said, logically it should be one or the other -- yet somehow you've got half of one and half of the other, which makes no sense.

Also, you admitted to taking her private -- you said you did it because you wanted to see her naked, and you did it anonymously so she wouldn't know it was you -- but originally you made it sound like you only did it once. But NOW you just admitted "after a few sessions I found out she does strip and much more. Maybe much much more." So if you've seen her for a FEW sessions that means you've been going back to see your friend's wife again and again.

So why don't you clarify this for us again. Just how long or how many times have you checked out or played with your friend's wife? And what has she said or done -- besides chat or strip a little bit -- to make you say "she's doing much much more"? Why are you accusing her of that?

RE: supertricky question

The most beautiful sound I ever heard
All the beautiful sounds of the world in a single word
ELENA
I just met a girl named ELENA
And suddenly that name
Will never be the same

ELENA
I just kissed a girl named ELENA
And suddenly I found
How wonderful a sound
Can be
ELENA
Say it loud and there's music playing
Say it soft and it's almost like praying
ELENA
I'll never stop saying
ELENA
ELENA, ELENA...

Say it loud and there's music playing
Say it soft and it's almost like praying

Actually, when someone posts a song meant for another person, it would be even better to pick a song with a happy ending! The song he's using to proclaim his love to Elena (but just changed the name) is MARIA from WEST SIDE STORY, which is sung by the character of Tony. But the funny thing is Tony does not get Maria. Tony gets shot and dies and the two lovers never get together. So I hope things go better for "I love her" and Elena since Tony and Maria's love song didn't end on such a happy note! LOL

I have problem this with my partner, when I sleep with him, I just jump up at my room, I cant bear after 15 min :)

Will you recommend your partner him/her if you marry with him to sugery to stop this? or how can bear you? I think, that is really nice idea someon huggin each other when they are sleeping each other the whole night, but someone making noisy, will be really big problem I think :) and someone making sudden stopping it's even comic I think :) how can U bear this, or r u sleep seperate at sofa or something?

RE: snoring problem :

my husband snores loud enough to literally shake the house. When he sleeps upstairs in his bedroom, I can hear him no matter where I am in the house, doors closed and all.

We talked to the doctor about it, and he recommended a sleep study. The sleep study showed he had severe sleep apnea (stops breathing momentarily 58 times an hour). Surgery is recommended ONLY as the ultimate, last resort procedure. What is recommended is a CPAP device which he wears at night and forces air into his lungs. He looks like an alien with the device on LOL but he sleeps better, breathes better at night, doesn't snore. The device is uncomfortable but he gets used to it. Snoring can indicate sleep apnea which is a dangerous condition as it causes the heart to work harder... hence, he is significantly more at risk for Stroke, Congestive Heart Failure, and other heart-related problems, not to mention that it causes severe fatigue (lack of consistent sleep) and poor mental alertness and functioning. People who are obese are more likely to suffer from sleep apnea than those who are not obese, but sleep apnea is not limited only to obese people.

Whatever you do about the snoring, for sure, get it checked out by a competent physician, and discuss options.

Reply

RE: snoring problem :

Agree, get it checked out. But if it's relatively minor (caused by congestion or smth), you can get little "snore strips" that attach like a bandaid across the nose, and help to open up the nasal passages. I don't snore all the time, but I've been kicked often enough in the middle of the night to wear these when I think I'll need 'em. :D

RE: snoring problem :

Everyone covered the topic pretty well. The CPAP is the best non-surgical method. The strips, mouth guards, special pillows, throat sprays...etc. are all pretty worthless. The CPAP fits over the nose or nose and mouth and pushes air with enough force to open the airway. When the airway is closed you hear snoring and the person snoring doesnt get enough oxygen and healthy sleep. There are surgical procedures where the nose and throat are surgically modified but they have mixed results. The CPAP is the way to go after a sleep study. They come with a container for water that moisturizes the air (use distilled water only). They must be kept clean and they are not cheap nor are the accesories that must be replaced from time to time. (mask, hoses, etc.). The CPAP itself makes a noise like rushing air but it tends to be what they call white noise or noise you can easily block out. It might even allow you to sleep better. Good luck.

RE: Congratulations to the Canadian Men's Hockey Team

I'll be okay. Just disappointing. The better team won, and it didn't come down to a freak goal or bad referee or anything like that so that's good. In fact, the American's first goal maybe came on an offsides play which would probably have caused some controversy had the USA won.

The USA set a record for Winter Olympic medals and Canada set a record for Winter Olympic gold medals so both countries had a great Olympics. I just like seeing my country do well especially in sports that we are not well known for.

But it was nice to see Canada win something so important to them. Americans think about the Olympics for a week before, the two weeks during, and a week after, and then we forget about them for the most part. We really don't care that much compared to other countries. It would have been a source of national pride for about a week so that we could say "Yay!!! See? We're good at hockey too" if we had won, and then people would forget about it whereas in Canada, it would have been a national tragedy had they lost. Unless you do something like Michael Phelps or the 1980 men's hockey team, we pretty much forget about the Olympics.

We just like to see we are at or near the top of the medal count. In fact, a lot of us were happy in some ways that our basketball team didn't win the gold medal in 2004 even if it is our sport since we sent a bunch of jerks over there that got what they deserved. Our professional teams are more important to us other than right around the time of the Olympics.

But hockey players are usually nice people, and it is disappointing to see the American ones lose. One American was from near where I live, and two Canadians play for my favorite NHL team so it was good all three did well. I just hate Crosby, lol. I wish someone else had scored.

Congratulations also to Germany. They had a great Olympics. And as for Russia, I have no doubt they will do a lot better on their home turf.

Let's see... Russian-American host? Where do you live? Want to comfort me? :-)

That was a great game. The definition of the phrase "nail-biter." I prefer the World Jrs for hockey tournaments. The Olympics men's hockey kind of has an NHL allstar feel to it. I like the heart of women's Olympic hockey better.

I thought it was kind of funny what you said about the usa not caring about the Olympics. I was just having a conversation about this same thing, and I've seen a lot of discussion about this previously, though it was from the complete opposite perspective. The usa sinks a lot more into the Olympics, training, athlete and money-wise and it really seems like a lot bigger of a deal there than in most other countries. If anything, medals and olympic status in the world's eyes just seem to mean a lot more to the people of the u.s. than to those of other nations.

From what I did take in, it seemed like a great Olympics this year. I didn't get to watch a lot of it, which is a shame because I enjoy the winter Olympics. The summer games have no interest to me at all.
I think the only downside was some individual and media pettiness at the beginning. Small minded people and organizations make themselves feel better by picking things apart (ie. apples to oranges comparisons to China's games), but every host nation must endure this anyway. No matter, it is always a great time for the world.
It feels good, in the end, to watch petty judgment crumble away with the fireworks of the closing ceremonies. The coming together of nations in celebration is always a success.

RE: Congratulations to the Canadian Men's Hockey Team

Maybe the U.S. Olympic Committee raises more money and things like that, but that doesn't translate into how the average American feels. Based on my unscientific sample of people and what is on television on the major networks, other than the time period immediately surrounding the Olympics, I don't think most Americans care too much. And when they do care, it is what you said... just being proud about how many medals we can rack up.

The major sports in the USA are a very small part of the Olympics. Yes, Americans compete in every sport, but the other sports certainly cannot be all that popular since the major sports dominate television, and if there was enough of an audience, other sports would be on tv, or at least not relegated to some obscure cable tv channel. Heck, hockey barely survives on American television.

You will have a large group of people into water polo or gymnastics or swimming or skiing or whatever, but looking at the country as a whole, few pay serious attention other than during the Olympics. We will be interested for two weeks since it is a unique event and we like to see our country do well, and then its back to what we usually watch. Sure, the ex-college water polo player will be into the Olympics, but I doubt he watches too much at other times. Instead, he is rooting for his favorite American footballl and baseball teams.

And think about what happened in... I think Finland... after the 2006 gold medal hockey game. The newspaper printed an article in the paper in Finland that listed the salaries of all the NHL players and titled it "Criminals". I highly doubt my paper tomorrow will say anything like that. And Norway was about to go into cardiac arrest before they started winning some cross-country skiing related medals this Olympics.

In the USA, we just say "First time we got the most medals in the Winter Olympics, and we set a record for medals in the Winter Olympics too.... Cool!" Then we forget about it. Yes, we will hope Michael Phelps can have a repeat performanace in next Olympics and be curious if our top NBA stars will go, but if Australia kicks our butts in swimming and Argentina wins in basketball, not too many people will worry about it. And Putin, for example, was really upset about the Russian man who won silver instead of gold in figure skating. You think Obama cares?

When you compare this to other countries, it is different. They are smaller countries that have their favorite sports and place a lot of importance on success in these sports. Dominating certain sports is about national pride for other countries and they take it a lot more seriously. The USA has the world series, superbowl, and nba championship. People focus on professional sports much much more and just hope to win a lot of medals regardless of the sport. And in terms of spending, I would think China spent a lot on its athletes, and after its disappointing performance, look for Russia to break the bank spending money to dominate on its home soil.

I missed all of the f's in of. Then again, I just woke up and read the sentence very quickly.

It might just be that the brain automatically sees the of, not that you cannot process it. For example, as long as the first and last letters of a word a correct, the ones in the middle can be scrambled around and most people can still automatically figure out what the word is without thinking about it.

Yes I missed all the f's in of too. Perhaps it is the way we (native English speakers) pronounce it. Now I'm sure that if I had read it very slowly I would have got all 6.

As for your other point about the scrambled letters I do not believe that one. I have seen the sentence based on the supposed Cambridge study but I have also seen sites where they use larger words and scramble them more and it can be very difficult to read those sentences.

RE: Count every ' F ' in the following text:

As a brainteaser it is fine. However the only reason it holds for most words is that with a word 3 letters or less you cannoy swap any of the letters. With a four letter word you can only swap the middle two letters giving only 2 possible combinationas and with a five letter word there are still only 6 possible combinations (assuming the letters in the middle of the word are all differnt from each other). Words of five letters or less probably account for a large proportion of the total number of English words.

Also in your example the words "rscheearch at Cmabrigde Uinervtisy" are hardly jumbled at all allowing for the correct word to be easily worked out and this then also helps to anticipate the next word. You also have an extra "ch" in research but hardly anyone ever notices this which they surely would if they were matching patterns (I only noticed because I was going to try and jumble it up more).

So it is fine as a party game / brainteaser. I just do not believe that if you really jumbled up the larger words most people would still be able to read them without a bit of thought.

Why are you picking on his manhood? There's no need for that. The guy is just hurting very bad. How about showing a little compassion instead. It's not like we haven't seen posts from some of you girls as well, where you'll whine & weep a little bit because someone broke your heart too. Besides, he explained he's not only heart broken, but the girl also took him for thousands of dollars. If I'd been tricked out of that kind of money, I'd be crying my eyes out too!

Lad, ignore those who say "you knew the risks" or "you should have known it was only an online fantasy" or people like Host who have the cold as ice attitude of "suck it up and be a man" because those are all just lame excuses, almost like they're trying to give this girl a pass for what she did to you. You went into things with good intentions. You trusted this girl because of what she said and did. So, in return, you gave her your heart and even your hard earned money -- and then she turned right around and screwed you over.

So here's my advice. Don't beat yourself up. Take a deep breath and realize she just isn't a good person. I know it sucks to hear that, especially about someone you cared for. But the truth is there are plenty of bad people and "users" in this world who will always take advantage of someone or prey on their feelings to get their way (which is what she did to you). So have a good cry, curse out loud in anger, get all the negative energy out of your system, and make a vow to never fall for her kind of tricks again. Then go find yourself a nice girl who isn't a player online, but is actually worth loving and trusting and having in your life. Good luck to you.

Why worries? A girl from internet can meet someone better than you in your place....you guys should keep it in mind such things can happen if a girl really looks lovely. Thats mean don't need to wait for 5 years. :)

Reply

RE: every rose has its thorn

Why would she have to wait 5 years? If I fell for a host or started an online romance, I would never ask her to wait that long. If I made a girl wait 5 YEARS before meeting her, I'd expect her to move on. After all, you can't wait on someone forever. There comes a point when you have to realize things are not going to work out, so you have to move on with your life.

When a couple starts an online romance BOTH the man and woman need to realize there HAS to be a day when you'll meet. Otherwise saying you have a relationship...or that you're trying to build one...is one big lie. If you're not building towards the day when you can finally kiss in person...or decide if the chemistry is right to become a real couple and settle down together...then what's the point? So if you're not working towards that -- sure, you could still be online chat friends or something, but that's about it.

But when you say that online guys should basically expect a pretty girl to start seeing a guy in her home town, that makes me (and I'm sure a lot of other guys here) frown a bit. If a host or girl decides to start up an online romance, she should work at it as much as the guy. BOTH of them have to be honest. And BOTH of them have to be loyal about NOT seeing some home town BFs or GFs on the side. I just think it's wrong to say guys should expect a pretty girl to be talking romance online, but then be making plans with a hometown guy because it's more convenient. Where's her sense of commitment? Why is only the guy expected to be faithful? And if she's so interested in having a hometown BF, then why did she say "yes" to starting up an online romance to begin with? She should have just said "no" from the start and also said "I only want to date guys in my hometown". Least that way no one gets hurt in the long run.

all this talk of romance and love? what?
I think that you are all missing the reality of what happened. He was giving her money, she was taking it. They never met, she will never see him, so he was easy pickings and all she had to do was some phone sex and sweet talk , and she has a steady income. This had nothing to do with love it was about money. She lied to him, and he lied to himself too.
I too have been down this road, and I understand the hurt of being taken for a fool. yeah it hurts, but it is what it is. Trust me, you do not want her to tell you why she did it, I did that, I insisted she tell me the truth, but all it did was sting more and trust me , with the way you feel now, you dont want to make it worse, cause if u push for the truth, you may just have to face up to it.
Everyone has an angle , if you are a nice guy , and dont say no to people, they are gonna walk all over you. Let this be a lesson to you.
Go out and meet some real people, and have some real fun and make some real memories. Stop thinking this place is real. when you are here or on the phone , you cant tell when you are being played. Better take your chances with a real woman. Cause some other dude is with the one you thought was yours. Chin Up man. It will get better for you in time.

I had a similar experience, but I never sent any money and I must say she never asked for anything, except my attention. It was really beautiful from the start, especially that she had the initiative to call me from her mobile. I was really surprised and flattered. She even sent me gifts from time to time. It was a great feeling. We decided to meet after 3 months of chatting and talking on the phone. We met in Yaroslavl, everything was beautiful and we even planned to meet again in 4 months. However.... after 2 months of our first meeting she confessed she had accepted back with her ex-bf. She confessed she always loved him, but wanted to forget him. He always looked for her and she finally accepted him back.... Well, I am sure it would had been different if I lived in her same city. The odds were against me. Her ex-bf had the advantage to live there and she knew she didn't had to get in the trouble of getting a visa and traveling to a country she doesn't know and especially facing the dilemma of leaving her relatives, friends, and all those memories she lived in her country. Ever since then I decided not to love over the net. It is just too complicated........

And your friends, you don't have any
Well just as soon as you've get back on your feet again

Congratulations to the Canadian Women's Hockey Team

Excellent goaltending. Good team play. The USA women were squeezing their sticks too hard. (Left that off my list, lol.)

Pretty good game and physical too.... Women are a bit too slow for my taste however. Lots of moments when you could see opportunities but women couldn't skate fast enough to take advantage of them. But was a pretty good game.

The Canadian men better beat the USA though if they play for the gold, or I think that will be embarrassing and lead to quite a few jokes. :p

Rarely. If the profile pictures are accurate and abundant it is usually not a problem. Hosts that hide their faces or pose is such a way to hide their bodies generally have something to hide. Also hosts who look great in pictures but look like a mess in video are disappointing. The issue usually is with attitude. Hosts who look like you are bothering them or not excited about the video. Sure it is the middle of the night and hard to get enthusiastic about the video but...they picked this line of work.

Don't despair, half of the Russian hockey players work and play in the NHL in Canada or USA. They did better back in the days (Soviet era) when they played together as a team year round. Now THAT was a team. These Olympic teams come together for just 3 weeks and they really aren't as good as the teams of old, even with a few superstars. Same could be said of USA and Canada teams.

mens olympic hockey has gone down hill. All these NHL players just try not to get hurt because of their real job in the NHL. Watch women's olympic hockey!!! it is great. these women play all out. Real team play, good passing. so the shots are not as hard, but it is much more exciting.

Reply

RE: it is over

You obviously haven't watched many mens' hockey games this Olympics. The play is extremely physical, at least when the USA and Canada are playing, and a number of top players on other teams such as Ovechkin have not backed away from their normal physical play.

In fact, I think it is more physical in terms of what is allowed as compared to the NHL I think I have seen about 20 boarding penalties and only one or two called at most. It is ridiculous how many dangerous hits from behind are being allowed. This is why fighing actually is a good thing in hockey. Anyone who cheap shots someone knows there will be a big price to pay in the NHL, but in international play (or at least in the Olympics), there is little to worry about.

Reply

RE: it is over

Russia didn't show up for the game, and they ran into a buzz saw. Put another way, Russia was not ready to play. For some reason, they were not focused, and Canada was ready to go from the first second. That happens sometimes in sports.

It was just one game, but in the Olympics, that's all that matters. But also remember, the game was played in a stadium in North America. That means the rink is smaller than one in Europe. Smaller rinks give more physical teams like Canada and the USA an advantage since it is much easier to hit people. For the same reason, smaller rinks take away from skills such as skating ability and passing. That doesn't mean Russia is better at those things than Canada, but Canada would not have been able to use its physical style as much to slow down the Russian team.

Another problem was the Russian goaltender was horrible, and ultimately, hockey comes down to goaltending. That is the main reason the USA beat Canada, for example. Plus, the Russian goalie's teammates let way too many shots reach him.

Additionally, after the 4th goal at the end of the 1st period, it was clear that the Russian goalie needed to come out. But for some STUPID reason, the Russian coach let him play at the start of the second period. The result probably would have been the same, but the Russian coach's stupidity guaranteed that there was no way his team could come back and maybe win.

Don't get too upset on your team. They have great players, and usually, your goalie is better than he looked yesterday. And if you see the USA play Canada again, you will understand what I mean by the smaller rinks and the more physical style. It will be a war especially since there is no fighting (which means players go after each other in other ways) and for whatever reason, international play seems to allow a lot more physical play without calling penalties than the NHL. I would have to pick Canada to be honest, but I wouldn't rule out the USA. They will give Canada a much more difficult test even though Canada has better players simply because it will be so physical and the ice surface is smaller. Plus, like I said, the smaller ice cancels out some of Canada's advantage in terms of players with skill.

Of course, the USA needs to play better or Canada may be playing somebody else, lol.

RE: it is over

there are or were 7 teams/countries that consisted entirely of nhl players and from what i saw every team/country has atleast 1 or more nhl players on it.since more then half the players play on the smaller north american rinks your theory that its a smaller rink doesnt hold water.

also i think smaller ice improves your skills.it takes more skill to finesse your way through the other team when the ice is smaller...but thats what i think

RE: it is over

While it is obviously true that a more skilled player has an advantage even in a smaller rink, that advantage INCREASES as the ice surface gets bigger. More room gives better skaters and better passers an advantage since they have more space to operate and makes it harder for other players to catch up to them in time to stick check or place a body check on them.

Think of it this way. Imagine a rink the size of a volleyball court, then a basketball court, then an NHL rink and then a European rink. At first, everyone is on top of each other and it is easy to bump into someone even if they are quicker since they have no place to go. As the rink gets bigger, it becomes increasingly more difficult to catch up to the other player. And when you do catch up, he has more space to get around you as the surface gets bigger.

A few years ago, the NHL changed the placement of the nets, the placement of the blue lines, elminated the red line in terms of the 2 line pass, and got a lot more strict with respect to interference penalties to open up the ice more. They needed to do all of these things because of the size of the ice surface and the style of NHL play. Everything was too congested. Nevertheless, despite all of these things, the European ice surface is physically bigger and gives skaters even more room and space to operate. The result is that the European players tend to be less physical and more skilled than Canadians and Americans. This is less true than it once was, but it is still true in general.

None of this means a European player or team cannot operate in an NHL rink. It isn't like there is a huge size difference. But the European style is different and is less suited for the smaller rink.

The fact that NHL players are on European Olympic teams doesn't mean anything. The point is NOT that European players cannot play in a smaller rink... The point is that Euorpean players, as a group, tend to be more finese players, and finese players are better off when they have more room to operate.

By the way, I believe 100% of Team Canada and Team USA are NHL players, as opposed to those on other teams, and these are the two teams that will be playing for the gold medal. It will be an NHL style game in an NHL rink with a few rule changes.

RE: it is over

All these players on the top teams are more than familiar with the NHL style rink and play, so your rink size argument has no merit in this Olympic tourney just like hockey fan said.

RE: it is over

It isn't about familiarity. It is about the fact that the skills that the European players have cannot be used to the same extent in the smaller rink.

RE: it is over

What surprises me most is that play is allowed on the 'american-favoured' small rinks. Granted, they may not have anything else there, but as far as I can see olympic games are the most international thing of all, and I would have thought international standards would have applied there.
So as a result, you have those who only use these rinks in the final.
Fair? Possibly not.
