Much better for Canada in hockey tonight. Solid, good game in all aspects. Now can they pick it up against Russia? Should be some great games tomorrow.

The game against the Germans looked like a practice. Other than not having a day to rest between games, I think the Canadians will do fine. It's a pretty even match.

It's a highly wealthy and developed country, and it has no shortage of pride. What's not to understand?

Totally awesome and unbelievable for Canada in hockey tonight! They should make this day a national holiday.:yes:

Good for the Americans too. Hope to see Canada and US play again in the final.

This is the greatest miracle that ever happened to my nation. To become intrested in sports.

In 1954 Germany won the world soccer championship and that was a miracle that changed a whole country cause the only thing the land knew since then was war.

Since then the enthusiasm about sports has redefined the whole nation and became the new driving force in our lives.

I bet that's a thing you didnt know about Germany.

Go Canada Go!!!!

A Gold in Womens Hockey and a Bronze in Womens Figure Skating!!!

The bronze was truly inspirational....... Joannie Rochette lost her mother tragically just before her short program Tuesday night, and somehow gathered the strength and courage to skate.... she finished in 3rd place, then again she skated last night, and again finished 3rd and getting a Bronze medal :)

she left this comment

"I'm really glad I did this," she said (Joannie Rochette ). "I didn't really feel like skating. My mind wasn't really there, but I'm glad I did because 10 years from now when the pain has gone away a little bit, I would have wished I had skated here....That's what my mom would have wanted me to do."

I know, that is truly shocking. I thought the USA would probably win, but I thought it would be a very tight game. Now I'm torn about the other semifinal. I think we would have a better chance against Slovakia, but the appeal of a Canada/USA gold medal game is undeniable.

Second period... score: Canada-2, USA-1.
The score is not what I would like but it's an exciting game!
