Usa Vs Canada - 6:40Pm

[UNTflyer]

Huge game for Team USA. Even though we have a 1-point lead, the winner gets a bye into the quarterfinals.

Martin Brodeur is in goal for Canada, Ryan Miller for USA. Both have given up two goals in 2 games, but Brodeur gave up two critical goals against Switzerland which forced a shootout.

wow I know the first minute into the game, the US scored.

Huge Momentum Boost and it shows that the USA wants it more...

If America beats Canada in Canada it would be a national disaster for the Canadians

Wow--sounds like the greatest hockey game ever was played tonight. And I couldn't watch it because NBC wanted to show figure skating.

Still, way to go USA!!!

[CMJ]

Clutch saves by Miller.

[UNTflyer]

This is a BIG upsset.

Part of me hopes Germany knocks off Canada and part of me wants to see a rematch in the gold medal game.

[CMJ]

It was definitely an upset, but since it wasn't an elimination game I don't consider it gigantic by any stretch.

Great freakin' game. The U.S. now holds the advantage in their bracket for the next round.

But hey..........

.......Jim Craig?, Never heard of him. But I just saw Ryan Miller beat Canada, so this is definately the greatest U.S. Olympic hockey era in U.S. history,.....EVER!!!!

Blasphemy, I tell you!!!

BLASPHEMY!!!!!!!!

Although I did watch the USA-USSR game in 1980, and this game kind of flowed the same way throught the 1st 2 periods (didn't see the third). Canada/USSR dominated the puck and were constantly in the US zone, but couldn't put in the net. Meanwhile, the US maximizes thier scoring chances and wins despite being outplayed (again, at least through the first 2 periods of this game).

We actually outshot them 13-12 in the second. But they regained a huge shot-on-goal advantage in the

third 14-4. If you haven't seen it yet, you gotta see Kesler's reach-around shot

on the empty net there at the end.

Great stuff!
