Game over!
6-0
Game over!
Go USA1 Bobsled!!!
The USA is playing great! USA vs Canada is going to be UNBEAVABLE!
they said that about russia vs canada too, well... i guess russia outdid itself, but whatever
The U.S comfortable lead allowed them not to to play Ryan Miller in the 3rd.
He will be rested before the Gold medal game.
Anybody watching the Canada game? Not sure the Slovaks can generate enough offense to come back from the 2-0 deficit, even though there are two periods left to go
Didn't get to see the US game, but the highlights were awesome. Still not sure if they have a chance against the Canucks(assuming they win), playing the way they are.
Who cares. Congrats to the Canadian Women. They deserve to get in hammered and enjoy their victory.The International Olympic Committee will investigate the actions of Canadian women's hockey players who celebrated their gold medal victory Thursday night by swigging beer and smoking cigars on the ice in Vancouver.
A number of players, including 18-year-old superstar Marie-Philip Poulin, were drinking alcohol on the ice following the team's 2-0 defeat of the United States. (The legal drinking age in British Columbia is 19.) Players lingered for more than 70 minutes after the awards ceremony reveling in the arena, which was empty except for media and arena staff. (Click here to view a slideshow of the celebration.)
Gilbert Felli, the IOC's executive director of the Olympic Games, said that drinking in public was "not what we want to see" from athletes at an Olympic venue. The organization will investigate the actions and will speak with the international hockey federation and Canadian Olympic Committee and ask them to "act accordingly."
Steve Keough, a spokesman for the Canadian Olympic Committee, told the Associated Press, “We condone celebrations. … We don’t condone actions of irresponsibility. I think Canadians understand it’s quite an emotional moment for our team. It was not our intention to go against any IOC protocols.”
To be sure, the Canadian women's hockey team should have acted with more class and been a little more discreet with its celebration. But to do something drastic like ban the team from the Closing Ceremony or force them out of the Olympic Village would be an overreaction. In past Olympics we've seen steroids, political boycotts, cheating and judging scandals. A few puffs of a cigar hardly seems to be in the same league.

Damn, Halak really left on his own
Nothing much he could have done
USA vs Canada will be EPIC. I think we have a chance.
3-2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! C'mon Slovakia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sid is a defensive liability...why is he in there?
in Canada almost gave up that lead, Slovaks had a great chance there with time running out...Canucks dominate the whole game and then fall apart toward the end. That will be in their head going into the GM game
Slovaks deserve a lot of credit! Great finish!!
Also, gotta think the Slovaks are the fave for the bronze. They really have a solid squad
I would have disagreed before I saw the Canucks collapse toward the end
this game is going to be great
I feel bad for Halak
No more debate in Montreal
Carey "Toskala" Price, GTFO
Halak was fantastic! Dude really kept them in it
Wow Canada vs. US round II
Win or lose i think there may be a riot of laker proportions in downtown Vancouver lol
No way man, gotta believe the peeps in Vancouver have more class than that.
I do hope it's a good game, but my question is this: which Canada team will show up?
I've also gotta think that Miller has a bad game in him, and I hope it isn't against the Canadians.
Nevertheless, It's great to have an all North American final!
I want to believe that as well. However 94' Stanley cup and canceled GnR concert tells me otherwise
though this time with the amount of cops i saw downtown it'll probably be prevented.
Canada played well enough to win last time against the US, Brodeur on the other hand did not. Hopefully Luongo will play well on sunday

Canada will win gold in hockey.
Congrats to Justin! Olympic gold medalist
You are right, Canada will win gold in hockey...
in women's hockey.
The men will have to settle for silver.
