I'm a bad hockey fan and I've been slacking with it. Who are in the final running?

USA v Canada, 3 pm (eastern) Sunday.

That was one heck of an intense game. I don't remember the last time I was freaking out with excitement over a game. Canada played a great game and congrats to them winning the gold. Have no fear, USA; we have the silver and a medal's better than nothing.

Well, that was a great game. It was great to see it go into overtime, but would have preferred a different result! I'm still happy that we got the Silver. It was a great Olympics for team USA.

Exciting game... we can't be anything but proud of our team. The Silver medal is a great accomplishment for the US whenever hockey is concerned. Way to go guys!

It was a fantastic game!! The way they came back from 2-0! What was there 23 second left when they tied the game. To take the Canadian team into over time. The Canadian team WAS the NHL all-star team! I am so proud of the USA team!!

I also can't say enough about Miller!! What a series he had. His goaltending kept us in their!!

Wasn't he the MVP?

I thought I was going to have a heart attack in that 3rd period!

Good Job Canada, and good job Syd!

Don't forget the statement sent around the world. North American hockey took gold and silver in BOTH men's and women's this time around. Should be interesting to see how this plays out for the 2014 games.

Skull - I'm glad we had you sweating... It would have been quite a statement to take down Canada on it's home soil. Congrats on the win. I DESPISE Sid the Kid... (I'm a CAPITALS fan, if that explains it)

And the rivalries resume. It was a long break, but it feels good knowing the NHL season is back underway.

Jacca - Hey now... I remember a certain playoff series with the Blue Shirts last playoff season... Good series...

Len - Don't you know it... Are you a Devils fan?

I do not recall such a series. I am getting old (I'm gonna be 50 this year) and sometimes my memory fails me.
