Ugh. He left the net way too much, and let in a couple goals he shouldn't have.

The second goal! What the hell was he thinking going for a home run on a clearance attempt?!?

The offense was there (but Miller was sensational), the defense is suspect, and we need to go with Luongo the rest of the way. Germany on Tuesday isn't a problem... but a win there leads to RUSSIA on Wednesday. That is NOT good.

If that was the final score the suicide rate in this country would more than double.

	Empty-netting was a mistake. We could have scored just fine if we'd had that extra minute. As far as defense, we had none. The best defense was a good offense for most of the game, if brodeur had done his part we'd have easily won :/ ____________________ <@Bitmap> Be completely humble and gentle; <@Bitmap> And tell them to shut the fuck up

In other news, I think last night was the first time I've watched an entire hockey game.

Whooooooooo

Canada gets gold in ice dancing... and, fun fact, Russia gets shut out from figure skating gold for the first time in 50 years.

*The more you know~_-~-~_-~

They were awesome!

And I really don't watch ice dance but... they were clearly above the competition. First North Americans to ever win the gold in ice dance, BTW.

And either way, the Americans finished 2nd, so... it was gonna happen.

The Russians must be ticked off, with all these other people winning.

Gotta hate the terrible constant cutting back-and-forth and delaying on Women's figure skating. My Mom and sister are outraged at it.

What made it worth it, though, was how Kim Yu-Na skated to the James Bond theme, holy shit. And her score even set world record for short programs lol
