Sorry, out of the loop yesterday.
Canada beat the US in OT, capitalizing on a bad play. It was clear from the start of the game that the Canadians didn't want to get into a wide open game because they can't match the U.S team in skating or shooting. They went to a defensive strategy and played the clutch and grab game all night, pulling U.S players to the ice whenever they could. Not a pretty win for sure. They took advantage of some pucks which bounced their way toward the end of the game to pull even, and then score in OT. This broke the run of 3 straight gold medals by the U.S with Canada getting its first gold since 2007.
