I don't care if you like hockey or not, if you watched last night's game you would have been captivated by game. USA was able to take home gold over Canada for the first time since 2004 (Canada had won gold ever year since).
Canada was obviously the better team. USA was up 2 goals in the 3rd, but it didn't last long as Canada popped in two goals (which could have easily been 5). It seemed as though USA was done until Carlson beat goaltender Martin Jones on a 3-on-1 after U.S. goalie Jack Campbell made a save at the other end. It was the second goal of the game for Carlson, on loan to the U.S. team by his American Hockey League team in Hershey.
It was amazing, easily the best hockey game I had seen in years. Maybe the reason I was so into it was because Ray Bourque's son is on team USA. I was unaware of that fact until I started watching and did some research on the old IPhone. He seemed like a hell of a player to me, and is definitely something I will keep my eye on over the next couple of years.
Anyways, great game, and I hope at least some of you saw it...
