As we move officially into “late summer” everyone (except the NHLers) is getting ready for the Olympics. At publishing time the puck is about to drop on what should be an interesting first of two friendlies between notorious hot mess Sweden and the up and coming host team South Korea. (The women’s teams, naturally. Look who’s writing this FTB after all). The second game takes place at 2 am Eastern on Saturday. If South Korea can manage to hold their ground, or even win one, we’ll know the Olympics are going to be very interesting indeed.
