Went to shootout anything can happen, which I'm not a fan of. I do like the way BCJH league has it setup.
First OT 4 on 4 for 5 minutes, if no winner
Second OT 3 on 3 same 5 minutes, this usual settles it.

Re: 2014 Men's Olympic Hockey Team
Woo-hoo we kicked Finland's sorry butts!!! Hee hee - actually that was a lot closer than it should have been. Anyone else have any nails left? Yikes I was sure they were going to find a way to blow that game...it just seemed like the similar game we've seen all too often, Team Canada misses opportunity after opportunity and then blam the other side scores on one of their only chances. My heart was in my mouth there when Salo took that shot in the OT. So close.

So we meet the winner of Switzerland vs Latvia in quarter finals.
So far Canada has had it very easy the hardest challenge being Finland, which may (?) come back to bite us in the *bleep* later.

the entire country needs to change it's diaper now. What a joke, how the hell could $149 million worth of players almost lose to a bunch of bums? I don't get it.

Full credit to the goalie & Ted Nolan on Latvia success.
Almost forgot a small supporting roll to Ref on the missed call for a penalty shot…. players hand covering puck on the goal line.

Wouldn't have mattered, there was no way we'd have scored on the penalty shot anyway.

They certainly haven't played inspired hockey thus far.
