THE GAME!!!

[Silver]

Wow.
What an emotional roller coaster that was! The U.S played 100 times better than they did when they stole that victory form us earlier in the tournament. Both teams played their guts out. Congrats to the U.S. for an incredible tournament. Congrats to the Canadian boys for a hard fought win against a worthy opponent.
I never thought I would see the patriotism displayed by my countrymen that I saw today and over the course of the games, the masses of people filling streets, bars, and community halls across the country wearing our colours, cheering, and spontaneously breaking into our anthem has been incredible.

Wow.

Congrats to the Canucks. Helluva game and hockey has a new fan here in Iowa.

I had a meeting to go to at 5pm and had my coat on and remote in my hand ready to turn the TV off when I hear "SCOOOOOOORE, TIED GAME!!!!" I was thinking holy crap.

Well that was some of the best hockey you will ever see! Way better than NHL hockey in my opinion. Much cleaner.

Closing ceremonies are fairly spectacular, too. It never ceases to amaze me what the people of this world can do when they decide to cooperate.

"Now you know us, eh?"

Long standing ovation at the mention of our final gold medal and the crowd starts to yell "Luuuuuuuuuuuu"

 

[Yanuck]

There was some serious yelling going on at our house when they tied it, went to feed the lot and came back just in time to see the replay of Crosby scoring the winning goal...always proud to be Canadian but especially today!!

Out with a bang!


Tomorrow I'm gonna watch a replay of the Golden Goal!!!

[hillsdown]

My mistake Burnt, sorry;;; although most times we should be apologizing for NB.. :lol:

Great show, and I speak better french than the MC does..Who knew that would come in handy after all of those years taking it in HS and Uni..

 

[per]

I was hoping they would finish it with a little Randy B. He must have been hunkered down on Saltspring. I'm sure the French police will want to write a ticket to the MC. :roll: Niel Young is getting old on us. :shock:

I missed the game live was on the road coaching Emily's PeeWee team-we found out that the U'S tied it justas we got on the bus to go home. Then it erupted when the text came in that we won. I( watched it late last night-probably one of the greatest games of all time between the two greatest countries on earth. It's no consolation for the U'S right now but they were a great young team. It amazeedme the composure of both countries young guns-for Crosby to come through after carrying the expectations of an entire country on his back is amazing-you don't script it any bettrer than that. When I watched Marleau get his medal I thought of the journey he took to the medal-the frozen feet in the small town rinks,the bus rides all the ups and downs of all the athletes. On the way home we passed a groiup of kids playing road hockey and I can just bet every time there was a goal it was Crosby from Iginla-my generatioon it was HENDERSON SCORES!!! I watched more Olympics than ever before-cancer does have some benefits-I've never been prouder to be a Canadian-yeah I teared up during the anthem-for Mike Babcockto rally the team after that crushing U'S second goal speaks volumes. A great game in the world's greatest sport.
