This is going to be one for the ages...
Always wanted to say that and have it actually be relevant.
GO CANADA GO!

The CTV hockey panel before this game should be fun. I predict the panelists will talk about Ovechkin vs. Crosby to the point where they literally become aroused. (I'm at work so if they have already done this than I apologize).

With any luck, this'll be the first of three games all worthy of being gold-medal finals.
Game on.

Almost as much as I want Canada to win, I don't want this game to be decided with a shootout.

That is my biggest fear. What a shame that would be to have one of the best sporting match ups in the world ruined by a breakaway contest.

Nash with Toews and Richards tonight. Head to head with OV and company.
|
How do the rest of the lines look now? Morrow moves up with the ANA line?

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.

~ 4 hours to go... this day has been a total waste at work.
With Nash-Toews-Richards as one line what will the other lines be?
Staal-Crosby-Iggy
Heatley-Thornton-Marleau
Morrow-Getzlaf-Perry
??
Bergeron as the 13th fwd?

Ugh. I completely forgot about playoff butterflies. The next 4 or 5 days could be like game 7's every other day. Too. Much.
Canada wills themselves to victory tonight.

Last I looked, I wasn't an NHL coach, but Nash on a line responsible for shutting down Ovechkin and Malkin? Yeesh. I have faith in Toews and Richards, but from what I've seen, Nash would be the last guy I'd saddle with that responsibility (or portion thereof).

I smell overtime tonight. What is the format? Same as yesterday's games? 10 mins 4 on 4, then shootout?

Yup, all games are 10 minute OT except the Gold Medal Final which will be 20 minutes.

The Bergeron pick was fataing ######ed. Whoever picked him over guys like St. Louis, Stamkos, CARTER should be canned from Hockey Canada.
Bergeron? Patrice Bergeron? WTF were they thinking??
What a waste.
