The Winter Olympics continue on
Sunday with another healthy dose of live television coverage. The
focus, as always, is on hockey and figure skating.
The U.S. men's hockey team hits
the ice at 7:30 a.m. ET against Slovenia, hoping to build on their epic
shootout win over Russia. That game can be seen on NBCSN, and the
network could see a ratings bump after T.J. Oshie's heroic performance
on Saturday. The Canadians take on Finland at 12 p.m. on USA Network.
Figure skating picks up again
with the ice dance short program at 10 a.m. NBCSN has drawn rave reviews
for their live figure skating coverage, both for showing every skater
and for the natural chemistry between Tara Lipinski and Johnny Weir.
Expect to see more of the same from them on Sunday.
The American curlers play
Canada in what should be intriguing rivalry matches, but with both the
men and women teams well out of contention, they get the tape delay
treatment. You can still see the women's team live on MSNBC, if only to
watch them play out the string after a 1-6 start. Elsewhere, cross
country and biathlon have medal events set to air on NBCSN later in the
day.
Here's your complete television
schedule for the day. All times are ET and medal events are in italics.
You can stream every event on NBCOlympics.com
or simply wait for NBC's primetime replay, which begins at 8 p.m.
Meredith Vieira is manning the studio again with Bob Costas still out of
commission.
