Canada wins the gold in sudden death OT with a goal by Sidney Crosby! I think Canada has a new hero. Great effort by both teams!!!

Men and Women's hockey was dominated by North America. Big day for Canada. Big day for hockey.
Will be interesting to see if the NHL let's their plays off for the Olympics 4 years from now.

I agree North America certainly dominated Hockey and I think the NHL will let their players participate in many Olympics to come and they certainly should cause it makes for better hockey. I think it also encourages other countries to get better that way.

If they don't then the Canadian, American, Czech, Russian, Slovak, Finnish, and Swedish teams would have to drop out of the Olympics.

As a US fan, I must congratulate the Canadians. They definitely outplayed the US in the finals. GREAT forechecking - an awesome performance.
But the Bruins are going to beat the Montreal canadiens on Tuesday . . .

Vince,
Sorry but I didn't record the game. I don't know if this will be of any help or not but I could send you a copy of Gilligan's Island!

Actually the Wilds are a interesting team ... 24 players, 3 Finnish, 2 Czechs, and the rest are all Canadians. Not a single American on the team.

Hopefully I will be able to get it mate...I know during the Olympics they were not allowed to show anything on the net...most frustrating. I just tried the link and it wouldn't bring up a video of any sort....fingers crossed for tonight mate.
Cheers, Vince

Odd if you click "Install Silver Light" it should work. That is how I have watched more of the games then I would have just watching TV. The joys of computers at my college.
