Well, I am sorry USA did not get the gold, but we did better than I had feared. Well done Canada who deserved the gold, and well done USA for making them fight in overtime for a 1-point win.

Very good reporting. However, in English it's Sidney Crosby. He did not produce as expected for the last three games. He decided to break his goal drought at just the right time, and scored the gold medal winner. History is re-written, now we look to Sochi to reproduce or better the performance.

Not just the 14th of these games, but most Gold medals ever won by a Winter Olympics Nation let alone host Nation. Maybe we didn't win the most medals, but per capital compared with other more populous southern nations I think we did pretty amazing!!!
