Has nothing to do with the NHL. No-touch icing has always been the rule in international competition.

It does not appear that the US will win. Under five minutes, down by a goal.

Gotta give it to the Canadians...the US will be proud of their Silver Medal.

Heh, I knew the U.S would score at the last moment. Nice defence, Team Canada—leave two guys alone in front of the net. It's like watching the Maple Leafs play.

EMSoccerCoach · 02-28-2010, 06:36 PM

GREAT game!

silvam14 · 02-28-2010, 06:37 PM

YES!!!! Go USA!

RBLwebguy · 02-28-2010, 06:37 PM

Good for TV ratings I suppose

They must have tied up the fat lady or something. Maybe they are saving her for tonight.

I can't remember the last time I watched a hockey game before today, as I've never really liked hockey, but this has been a great game. Go USA!

RchW · 02-28-2010, 06:44 PM

Bobby Lu can't squeeze the puck!

If I were the US team in overtime, I'd shoot the puck in the zone, high on net and make him catch it.

The sentiment among many people from the USA unfortunately as it is a good game to play and watch.

That was a very good goal. So let's all hope this ends in overtime. Shoot-outs are fun, but I don't want them determining the Gold Medal.

RchW · 02-28-2010, 06:46 PM

Wow, overtime is 4 on 4. That favors the US as they have some exceedingly fast skaters.

Might i say this is the greatest hockey game i have ever witnessed. Can anyone think of a better game that meant more?
