Conner definitely went to Hell-n-back. He's gotta be the MVP

Hey Canada, you guys could have had a hockey gold too.

I agree, GMC2003. Hellebuyck kept the U S in the game. Another Hockey GOLD!

 

[ajbert]

I haven't watched the game yet but heard they won on the news this morning. Not sure about any other countries this is the first time the US won gold in both the men's and women's teams. Wish I hadn't heard the news this morning as I was really wanting to watch the game without knowing.

What a great game between my two favorite teams! Hard to imagine the last time the men won gold I was still a senior in high school lol

 

[SmokinEdge]

Another miracle on ice! USA USA USA!

How about the Nelson/Christian family. Three generations of gold medal winners in USA hockey. I'm not sure I want to be the next generation. Gotta be a ton of pressure there.

I was turning 20 that year.

That's hard to do. Unless your off the grid.

I'm not sure, but I think woman's hockey has only been part of the Olympics since sometime in the 90s.

Really,

I took no ill towards it , but these are the times I guess.

I'm good Chris, your humor is the same as mine though. It does get me in trouble sometimes . Especially at home.

Congrats.

That dude was focused . It's so easy to cave in that situation , especially after the onslaught he faced in the 3rd period . He was on it .

Used to go watch the Blues years ago with the wife . They'd play both Anthems as they do ,, the wife always said " I like thier song better than ours " WTF .
Thought you might enjoy that more than I did .

I do have a question for my Canadian brothers. What's with the black maple leaf on the jersey? They should have gone back to my favorite from 1976.

Growing up so close to Montreal. We got Hockey Night in Canada twice weekly. Roger Doucet always sang their anthem. He was kind of like Kate Smith singing God Bless America in Philly - revered. I went to hockey school in Canada and boy did they really picked on us Yankees.

Yes he was stand on his head focused, and you guys hit our post a few times. And that double post hit was something else, I thought you guys had won then. Until the replay I thought it bounced out of the back of the net.

And yes thank youy , it was funny about the antthems.

Yes I get that, All of the this year outfits
Some people are saying that it reminds them of the Tim Hortons Resturaunt outfits and colours. lol

I like the dark look

It was designed by Nike

" The red jersey features a bold, multi-shade black Maple Leaf with two black stripes on the arms and across the bottom, and perforated white numbers on the back that allow the base colour of the jersey to be accented. The white jersey features a similar look, with a multi-tone red crest, two red stripes that differ in colour to match the crest and red perforated numbers on the back that give the jersey a clean and classic Canadian look.""

Sometimes they are good , sometimes not. But I do like the dark this time.

David

PS: They would have looked so much better with a little GOLD around the neck.... lol
