Canada takes Gold! Wins Mens Hockey.
What an amazing game!
full on respect to the American hockey teams. You beat us the first time in the mens and that game was close.
I think you guys had a great team; especially Miller. He was just incredible.
But what a great game! What a great finish!
Canada has now won the most gold medals of any country ever at the winter games!
I was so dissapointed in how Canada they played in the last 15 min of the third. they were playing to stay alive, not to win.
They came back with a vengeance in OT. The US had nothing to offer in OT at all. We had them pressured and on the run.
Great game from our boys and The Kid comes through when it counts the most.
Big ups for coming back after having the game tied. It is really hard to get motivated after having the game tioed with 24 seconds left.

Amazing game..... but I'm pretty disappointed. I feel like the US team was the most solid all around. Total domination of every opponent throughout the tournament until the final game.

You know that is gonna be an epic win for Canada to look back on in 20 years. Think about it the Shoot out with the Swiss then the loss to the US team. Then the comeback by the US in the finals with a dramatic goal to tie up the game with less than 30 seconds on the clock. Hell even the fact that Crosby who is sure to be a legend scored the winning goal will add to its legacy.

O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.
With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!
From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

Well we did outshoot you 2-1 in the first game. Miller was the star of that game far an away. He won the game.
So I wouldn't call that domination.
edit: oh and the last goal was an empty net goal.

Totally agree.
Even if we do it in 2014 again it will be hard to top the feeling of these olympics.

I was going to say the same thing. Shots on goal were around 41 to 19 for Canada Miller definitely won that first game for the US. It is possible to be the better team and still loose.
Great game today though by both teams. One of the best I watched in years. |
