From the Olympic thread.
"Wow, that was a game that was up for grabs. I am very happy with the result.
Looking back to the round robin game with the USA, our friends to the south may not know that the mood in Canada after that game could be likened to being in mourning. It is that important to us.
To see the players the hockey talent from Canada drained off to support (in my opinion) a watered down National Hockey League that has more teams than can be supported by small market southern teams, it is a burr under our collective saddles that the local teams have difficulty competing due to financial reasons.
That is why we get a bit bent out of shape on this. There was a shot of the Canadians serving in Afghanistan with a sign that said "Brothers in arms, but not on the ice." Pretty much says it all.
To take nothing away from the talent and the drive of the team from the USA, it very well could have gone either way. Congrats too, by the way for winning the total medal count.
Cheers!"
