NBC Olympics TV and streaming schedule for Feb. 5
Saturday night will feature figure skating, snowbarding, and some Team USA curling action
Saturday’s action at the Winter Olympics in Beijing is highlighted by figure skating, snowboarding, and some American curling action.
In the morning, the U.S. women’s ice hockey team will take on the Russian Olympic Committee (Russia’s name, flag, and anthem are barred from the Winter Olympics for doping) at 8:10 a.m. on USA Network. Team USA won their Olympics opener against Finland earlier in the week in their bid to defend their 2018 gold medal and become the first U.S. squad to win consecutive titles.
Saturday night will also feature the women’s snowboarding slopestyle final, which is expected to include two-time gold medalist Jamie Anderson and air live at 8:30 p.m. on USA Network. 2018 Olympic gold medalist Red Gerard will lead the U.S. contenders in the men’s slopestyle qualifying at 11:30 p.m. on USA Network.
