There's an NBC stream that probably works fine. My work blocks it. Dooohh. I'm checking some Boston Globe blog site to get updates on what's going on. Too hard to wait to watch the DVR when I get home.

Currently been using the official site for updates. Not necessarily play by play but it works at work. I tried the streaming thing they have setup but I don't wanna deal with getting my cable provider involved in the office. crazy

Solbes nice call on the NBC stream. Hoorah!

All zeros, US not looking to good right now. They can't seem to bury their chances and the Swiss had a few scoring opportunities.

No goal by .01 of a second.

For those that cannot watch, the puck was shot at the Switz goalie and it bounced over his shoulder and into the back of the net, but it was a tenth of a second late.

End of 2 0-0.

Shots on goal after 2,

USA 32

Switz-about 8

No shots on goal after 5 penatlies for both theams combined.

Sorry about the Martin comment, trying to do too much at once here side tracked. MArtin is great and is a distant friend. I was trying to say martin has played a shut down defense with Brodeur. He isnt the goal scoreer any more. He plays well with Brodeur. I was mixing together 2 diferernt replies.

Pay no attention.

Play wise, the USA has been awesome but Hiller keeps stopping the puck.

They will get it by if they continue to put the pressure on. I cannot believe Hiller can stop them all.

Or at least I hope not.

We all know what a hot goalie can do for a team and Hiller is HOT.

.01? ouch. that's going to come back to haunt us i bet

I was just thinking the same thing but didn't want to actually type it in case it comes true.

We need one of those "insurance goals", they do say a 2 goal lead is the worst lead in hockey and I would agree if we were playing Canada but these Swiss don't have much fire power so one more goal should take care of them.

Our IT guy had the game in his office. I walked in and got to catch the last 5 minutes, what a great game, or at least the small part I saw. Now, time to get ready to go home and watch Canada-Russia. That will be a good one!

Never thought I'd be rooting for the Ruskies but IF the U.S. makes it to the gold game the Canadiens scare the #!*^# out of me.

      I'm not there, so I can't tell exactly what's going on but it looks like a large area of open water developed in the last day with all of the heavy snow on the east side of wake em up Narrows. These two photos are from my Ring Camera facing north towards Niles Point.  You can see what happened with all of snow that fell in the last three days, though the open water could have been wind driven. Hard to say. .

      Black Bay had great ice before but a few spots near rockpiles where there were spots of open water. It looks like the weight of the snow has created a little lake in the middle of the bay.

      On the south end...   Thanks to some cold spring weather, ice fishing continues strong for those still ice fishing.  The bite remains very good.  Most resorts have pulled their fish houses off for the year, however, some still have fish houses out and others are allowing ATV and side by sides.  Check social media or call ahead to your favorite resort for specifics. Reports this week for walleyes and saugers remain excellent.   A nice mix of jumbo perch, pike, eelpout, and an occasional crappie, tullibee or sturgeon being reported by anglers. Jigging one line and using a live minnow on the second line is the way to go.  Green, glow red, pink and gold were good colors this week.     Monster pike are on a tear!  Good number of pike, some reaching over 45 inches long, being caught using tip ups with live suckers or dead bait such as smelt and herring in 8 - 14' of water.   As always, work through a resort or outfitter for ice road conditions.  Safety first always. Fish houses are allowed on the ice through March 31st, the walleye / sauger season goes through April 14th and the pike season never ends. On the Rainy River...  The river is opened up along the Nelson Park boat ramp in Birchdale, the Frontier boat ramp and Vidas boat ramp.  This past week, much of the open water skimmed over with the single digit overnight temps.   Areas of the river have popped open again and with temps getting warmer, things are shaping up for the last stretch through the rest of the spring season, which continues through April 14th.   Very good numbers of walleyes are in the river.  Reports this week, even with fewer anglers, have been good.  When temps warm up and the sun shines, things will fire up again.   Jigs with brightly colored plastics or jigs with a frozen emerald shiner have been the desired bait on the river.  Don't overlook slow trolling crankbaits upstream as well.   Good reports of sturgeon being caught on the river as well.  Sturgeon put the feed bag on in the spring.  The bite has been very good.  Most are using a sturgeon rig with a circle hook loaded with crawlers or crawlers / frozen emerald shiners. Up at the NW Angle...  Ice fishing is winding down up at the Angle.  Walleyes, saugers, and a number of various species in the mix again this week.  The bite is still very good with good numbers of fish.  The one two punch of jigging one line and deadsticking the second line is working well.   Check with Angle resorts on transport options from Young's Bay.  Call ahead for ice road guidelines.

      With the drifting, kind of hard to tell for sure, but I'm guessing about a foot and still lightly snowing. Cook end!

      How much snow did you get on Vermilion? 
    • Mike89
      lake here refroze too...  started opening again yesterday with the wet snow and wind...  very little ice left today...
    • Hookmaster
      A friend who has a cabin between Alex and Fergus said the lake he's on refroze. He texted me a pic from March 12th when it was open and one from 23rd when it wasn't. 🤯
    • SkunkedAgain
      I don't think that there has been any ice melt in the past few weeks on Vermilion. Things looked like a record and then Mother Nature swept in again.   I'll give my revised guess of April 21st
