Spolier Alert: USA! USA! USA!

Now THAT is how you start a Saturday morning! What a game between the USA and Russian men's hockey teams. Pavel Datsyuk was incredible for Russia playing on one good knee and almost willed them to victory. It was St. Louis Blues player T. J. Oshie who stole the show with his 4 goals on 6 chances in the shootout. It should be noted in the Olympics in a shootout after your first three shooters the coach can go back and keep sending the same guy out. Luckily U.S. head coach Dan Bylsma did just that.

AMAZING game. If you didn't see it make sure you watch a replay. Great players playing a very up-tempo game, controversy, overtime, breakaways, then an eight round shootout.

To quote Eric Cartman, "Kiiiiick ass!"
