I've got a bit of a stomach flutter going on just thinking about this one. It's quite ridiculous really, given my age. I mean I've attended European Cup finals, FA cup finals, Memorial cup finals, playoff games galore but I'm still acting like a little kid when thinking about this matchup. I guess it's because I'm so proud to be an adopted Canadian. Since moving here in 1992 I've watched countless old Canada-Russia games on DVD and the passion on display is incredible. I got goosebumps seeing Paul Henderson score "the goal". I may not be a born and bred Canadian but I sure feel like one now.

I see this one going to OT which is making me freak out even more!

4-3 Canada. Iginla with a couple. Crosby with the OT winner.
