Loved the shot on CBC of the bar in Nova Scotia filled with a bunch of white haired old timers.  life goals.

Crazy ending!  I feel bad for Saros.

I feel like there needs to be an investigation into these refs, how can you see this on the replay and not conclude offsides

I hate that it was even up for review. The goal scored 50 seconds later! Whistle it down at the blue line on the spot or forever hold your peace. The only thing I hate more than offside challenges are automatic delay of game penalties for puck over the glass.

I don't blame the Finns for trying if it is available, but I get it

 

I just wanted to post a funny meme

Teemu's tears. No doubt MacKinnon milked it, but it was pretty clear the stick hit him right in the face. How would you not call that?

Ya a high stick is a high stick.  Can't blame people for being emotional I guess.

Larkin!

 

I want Canada to win the gold but Larkin to score a lot.

[slothfacekilla]

I really hope this Larkin comes back to Detroit this season

[lordstanley]

Shorthanded chance for Larkin.

Team USA looking comfortable up 2-0 after 1. Good, sail through, then face adversity for first time Sunday morning and need to switch gears on the fly.

Slovakia has to run one the oddest modern power plays, it seems like most of the time they don't have anyone in front of the goalie.  Seems like a huge mistake against Hellebuyck.

Team USA pulling away.

It must feel so satisfying to punch a Tkachuk in the face

Let’s go!

Canadian tv panel - Kevin Bieksa, James Duthie, Elliot Friedman - views USA as slight favourites Sunday. Deeper defense, will be first Canadian opponent to try to dictate tempo.

go america.

no O-ffense to my canadian brothers and sisters.  i actually have a canadian who works for me now and she is - predictably - the sweetest, most polite person.

that being said, i have yet to see her after a couple of labatts at the curling rink.

Ontario is allowing alcohol sales at 6 am on Sunday.
