Photo of Team Canada's dressing room...
Leave no doubt…this is OUR game. This was the slogan plastered all over Team Canada’s dressing room. My co-worker’s brother works for Easton and had incredible access to the dressing room and the players. He has a great photo of he and Luongo with his gold medal after the game in the dressing room. Wow! How lucky!
What an incredible journey this Olympics has been for Canada…
14 GOLD! The most EVER won by a host country…in fact a record for gold medals for ANY country in the winter Olympics. In European terms, Canada is the outright winner of the games, since they tend to judge the winner based on the number of gold medals, not the overall medal count. We did OWN THE PODIUM!!! Way to go, Canada!!! Our athletes were amazing from curling to speed skating to moguls to hockey.
Sure, the Americans had the most overall medals, but Canada still scored 26 medals in total…a RECORD for Canada and 2 more than our previous high of 24 in Torino. And Canada missed many medal opportunities because our athletes were going for gold and wiped out or crashed because they were pushing so hard! We had more top 8 finishes than any other country!
Canada kicked ass, and won the most important gold medal of all…HOCKEY GOLD…in dramatic fashion, in a game we'll remember here in Canada for all time, 3-2 over the brash American upstarts. It was payback after losing to the USA in the round robin game 5-3. Sidney Crosby redeemed himself after a failed break away in the third and caught the magnificent Miller off guard in overtime. WOW!!! And I thought the stunning victory over Russia was amazing!!!
16.6 million Canadians watched the game making it the most watched program EVER on Canadian television. After the puck went in the net the entire country erupted in one great cheer that was heard around the world! From Sidney Crosby’s hometown in Nova Scotia to the LiveCity site in Yaletown, Canadians were overcome with joy, winning hockey gold here on our home soil. Team Canada skated around the rink waving a massive Canadian flag as tears of happiness rolled down the cheeks of millions red and white clad fans from coast to coast to coast. Thousands of Canadians took to the streets…closing down most of downtown Vancouver and even Yonge Street in Toronto! Oh Canada!!! What a finish to the greatest Olympics ever!!! Whoohoo!!!
I might add that Team Canada scored more goals than any team has ever done at the Olympics. Simply put, the boys got the job done.
I am prouder than ever to be CANADIAN!!! TRUE NORTH STRONG!!! Go Canada Go!!!!!!
