The Good Ole’ Hockey Game

March 11, 2010 by Alison Solven

11 Mar

Hello Stampers,

WOW – what a wild month we've had in Vancouver.  The Olympics were an unbelieveable once in a lifetime experience for everyone living here and across the entire country.  We were so proud to have earned the most Gold Medals EVER in a Winter Olympics by any country before us.  What an accomplishment for a country of 30 million!

Now for THE hockey game – I'm talking about the Gold Medal game last Sunday.  It was such a roller coaster of emotions – we were up 2-0 and then the US tied the game in the last minute of play.  Off we went to overtime.  I phoned my friend Sue who told me not to worry – we were an experienced team and we'd pull it out of the bag.  I wasn't so sure.  The US goalie Miller was amazing throughout the tournament so I wasn't sure if we'd ever crack him.

When Sid the Kid (Sidney Crosby) scored the winning goal in overtime I think the entire country of Canada exploded!  Apparently 85% of all Canadians watched part or all of the game.  I know other countries get mad at us for saying this but it's true – HOCKEY is OUR game. 

Here's a cute video about the Hockey Tournament. 

PS – Our Women's Hockey Team won the Gold Medal for the third straight Olympics too – now our sledghockey team will take the Gold in the Paralympics for a Trifector!
