They could have easily stole that win from us tonight. We gotta tighten up big time and I hope Bab**** fuckin rips into the boys tonight.

This and the 6-1 victory over Norway make the U.S. a much more threatening force in the Olympics.

In other news, RUSSIA LOST. Slovakia managed to squeak an upset in six shootout rounds, with Halak stopping everything except for Ovie's forehand.

No problem bud, I overreacted to a harmless mistake anyway.

Well, this is awkward... Marleau, Thornton, Boyle, Heatley-- suck it?? Go USA? Yeah, GO USA!

I've been following the Winter Olympics pretty closely other then the hockey. Biggest Dissapointment: Gretchen Bleiler getting 11th in Women's Halfpipe. We could've sweeped it. Plus, it blows seeing the 2nd most attractive American fall twice.

I'm watching the hockey game between Canada and the US right now. A really intense, fast paced game. Currently the score is 2-2.

The US breakaway, into Canada counter-attack break, into another US breakaway might be solidifying this thought.... One of the most exciting hockey games I've seen in a looong time.

... And we'll be back with Mankind's most cherished and time-honored sporting event in just a moment, BUT FIRST - How 'bout them Doritos?

And to top it off, Kesler's glorious bid for the empty netter at the end. Ryan Miller is absolutely on fire right now and if this continues through the rest of the season he'll surely be the top candidate for the Vezina trophy at the end of the year.

This is pretty much how Ryan Miller has played all year. I dont really see how anyone was surprised at all. I didn't even think it was that huge of a win. Miller is a systematic goalie, a new breed. The biggest surprise for me is a Russian loss. Between Malkin, Ovie, and Kovi they should be putting up ridiculous numbers. As much as I love Marty, thanks for that rad baseball play. USA walking into the Gold Medal game. Can't wait for the Rus/Can game! One formidable opponent is getting knocked off. I'm surpried thre hasn't been much talk of Sweden. They still have a beast of a team. Finland is diesel, and they made them look like chumps. Unbelievable hockey this time. Like others have said, between the b2b2b breakaways and the EN that was an incredible hockey game.

Canada plays Germany tonight. As for womens hockey, Canada basically walked right into the gold medal game, winning over Finland 5-0. The Finnish goalie played very much like Ryan Miller does. She was excellent, but the rest of Finland's team lacked on the offense. They only had 11 shots on goal and Canada had 50! Canada plays the US on Thursday in the gold medal match.
