Perhaps its time for Canadians to find a new national pastime...
In a wild upset, Team USA took down Canada last night 5-3 right in Canada's own backyard...
As hard as it was for me to watch Martin Brodeur get lit up like a Christmas tree, watching Ryan Kesler somehow score that empty netter at the end of the game was that much sweeter...Hands down, that was the sickest empty net goal I have ever seen...Somewhere Alex Ovechkin was giving him a standing O....
For Devil Brian Rafalski had himself quite the game as well with 2 goals and an assist...Chris Drury may have scored more goals last night than he will for the Rangers for the remainder of the season...
This was easily the biggest win for Team USA since the "Miracle on Ice" 30 years ago...I personally felt going in that we were the 3rd best team in these Olympics behind Canada and the Russians, but this team is showing true grit and play like this will have them smelling Gold by the end of the week...
In the meantime, Doc Emrick has a chance to regain his voice...you know a game is off the charts when he's hoarse by game's end...Lets go USA!
