Perhaps the biggest game in US Hockey since the Miracle on Ice had finally come. The USA would face Canada one more time but now for Gold. The USA won the first battle last Sunday leaving Canada embarrassed on their home ice. Team Canada now had their chance for gold and a little vengeance.
Canada came prepared and seemed to own most of this game. They scored the first two goals and seem to be on their way to a blow out. But the US managed to fight their way back. They scored a goal in the second period and then scored the tying goal with just under 25 seconds left in regulation. However Canada came on the offensive in OT and Sid the Kid Crosby managed to score the game winner 7:40 into OT. Canada Wins 3-2.
Canada had won gold in their national pastime and had went crazy as if all of Canada had won the Stanley Cup. Though the USA lost, I'm not that disappointed. Both sides played a great game and Canada got to see their team win in Vancouver. That's one gold they will not forget.
P.S. Great game now get back to work (I.E. the NHL).
