I prefer watching the Nordic skiing and biathlon (will be sad with no Bjorndalen) to the downhill events. I also get hooked into curling. One thing I'd love to see in person someday is bobsled/luge/skeleton - we almost went up to LP a few months ago as a last-minute trip when there was a World Cup event there.
As someone who's all-time favorite sporting moment was watching the Miracle on Ice game as a 14-yr old, I'll still watch men's hockey (local rooting interest with Harvard's Ryan Donato and BU's Jordan Greenway). I'll admit that with some of the ridiculous young talent that has come into the NHL in the past 2-3 years it would have been fun to see them in the world stage in mid-season form, but I'll watch regardless. Women's tournament should be good as well.
