I see Michael J. Fox is in the crowd at the arena and he's wearing a Team Canada hat.

I don't see how the USA has a chance after the perfect execution of that goal just now.

Canada 2-0!!!

Maybe that prank caller ought to be put in at goal for Team USA (see my post from last night).

That was an excellent goal. There's still 1 1/2 periods to go so nothing is wrapped up yet.

True that. It's now 2-1. I should have been more specific. I meant that if Team Canada continued to play as they were, and if the USA couldn't do anything better than 1-and-done shots on goal during their power plays.

Trying to watch and "blog" at the same time has its limitations.

I missed the goal as I had to leave, but I did hear the noise on tv as I was leaving the room. Now Canada better get down to business if they don't want to lose this game.

Luongo is starting to look a bit tentative goal, and Ryan Miller seems to be shaking off whatever nervousness he had earlier in the game and is showing the form of the past games in these Olympics. The momentum has, I am sorry to say, shifted to Team USA. The second intermission could not have come at a better time.

Now the game goes to overtime!
