It's all come to this, folks...
VS

One week ago, in a stunning upset heard 'round Vancouver and the hockey world, Team USA stole first place in the group and first overall heading into the elimination round from Canada in a tale of two goaltenders, with heart and grit providing the subplot. Ryan Miller played light's-out while Martin Brodeur played burnt-out. Too many turnovers plagued Canada, as American forces pounced on every juicy opportunity and cashed in with aplomb.



Since then, the world has turned upside down yet again. Canada looks like an unstoppable engine of devastation with Mike Babcock behind the controls as line combinations fall into place and Roberto Luongo steadies the team with his play between the pipes. The entire roster came alive and the five-man units pounded both Russia and Slovakia into submission. At the other end of the bracket, Team USA has found the groove it had been looking for. Dominating for nearly entire games with salvo after salvo of shot and dozens of blocked shots spread around the entire roster, the Yankees have gone from a team no one gave a chance to medal to a possible snake in the grass for the host favorites.



Can Crosby, Skills, and Nash take an entire nation off of suicide watch, or will Inglourious Backes, 20 Cent, Captain Clutch, and the Millercle on Ice avenge the "Curse of the Loonie" in 2002?

Let's...play...some...HOCKEY!!!
