Congratulations to Canada for the win. Congratulations to the USA for showing what grit and determination look like in winning silver. I'm sure Ovie would have liked the chance to go for gold/silver.

Interesting that the gold/silver/bronze went to Canada/USA/Finland in both men and women.

Ever since I was playing as a boy and then as a collegiate, the US/Canada hockey connection has been celebrated as one of the best rivalries ever. As the the sign said" brothers in arms but not on the ice". Thats awesome!

Let the pinheads bring up politics and economics. Leave the glory of true sportsmanship to the athletes and their supporters.

Only gold is gold but silver ain't no consolation prize.
