Great game, you could see that tieing (sp?) goal coming.  Canada might not "own the podium" but we own that top step! <party>

Bob..
Sauvignon Blanc today for me Michigan is a blazing 41 degrees ! So what is the flower in the bouquets and the end of the game?????

Congratulations Canada on your hockey gold!

Now the talking heads are calling this the greatest moment in Canadian Sports History.  So what do you think?  Was it that big? 

I'm not a huge hockey farn, just turned it on when I was in...

They are green mum. Here is the story on the flower shop that makes the bouquets, it's pretty cool.

Go Canada, couldn't have wrote a better fairy tale ending.

It was a good game. But I still haven't figured out how the "first loser" can actually be the gold winner. It seems like the the series is tied, so therefore, no clear winner.  This is like having the world series tie at 3 games apiece and then awarding the trophy to the last winner.  I say, after the olympics, they play again... winner take all.

It was a great game!!!  Now everyone knows who's game it is (lol) <party>

Canada lost in the  "round robin" round and had to play and win a extra game to get to the " Championship round".

Excellent series - 2 really great teams - great final game - Miller was fabulous - wanted the USA to win but was glad Canada won on home ice - US hockey is comin' on  but I thought the bouquet was cauliflower 

 

[farmboy]

that was a good game... eh

All the Olympic Gold winners were given those green bouquets... looked like broccoli to me. Seeing the Olympics were in BC I wondered if it was a new Marajuana plant that they had developed especially for the games. In BC, the sale of marajuana means more to their economy than fishing or tourism.  It was a great game... as for the greatest moment in Canadian sports... I say a definite NO. I can think of a few better moments in sport than this game.

Canadians would be ok. They just talk funny.Like Sarah Palin. ;D

Sorry Canadians , It was a great win, but 99.5% of us aren't really that upset over it. Had we won the streets wouldn't have been flooded with partiers.Would like to see an All Star football challenge between the two counties though.

Our CFL football is a fun game to watch and I am a season ticket holder.
The best of the CFL would have trouble with most of your college teams never mind the NFL teams.
A different calibre of professional player.

That's what I thought as well, the boquet sure reminded me of not yet mature cauliflower!
