Okay, that game was insane. INSANE. So sad, though, that the US didn't get the gold. Yes, silver is good, especially since almost nobody gave the team any kind of chance going into the Olympics.

UGH. and seriously. Out of all the players on Team Canada, it had to be that donkey-lipped pig-fucker to score the GWG? ugh. Like we needed something else the NHL can use to shove him down our throats. He does almost nothing the entire tournament and decides to show up then? BOO. FUCK YOU, CROSBY.

but congratulations to the rest of Team Canada (except for Brodeur because I still hate him. and Pronger. He can fuck off, too). Especially you, Toews. You're adorable and I still love your little glee!face.

and Team USA...oh, boys. You were amazing, especially you, Ryan Miller. Maybe now you'll get the recognition you deserve. Parise, that is the only time I will ever be happy you scored a goal, so I'm glad it was a good one. Drury and Cally? You did us all proud. All of you did (yes, even you, Ryan Malone, although I still make it my life's mission to get you to wear an undershirt). The hockey world mocked the roster, questioned it, said the team would go nowhere. So much for what they all know. You took Canada to OT in a gold medal game. You played your hearts out. You showed the world what you were made of. As far as I'm concerned, you guys are the winners tonight. <333

I'm also a winner because the AMAZING girl_wonder finished my fic! I'd won her in the help_haiti auction, and she wrote me THE BEST STORY EVER: Paid the Price (to live with myself), which is a WWII hockey rps AU. I just. guh. GUH. SO AMAZING. Even if you're not into hockeyfic, you should read it because it's so so good. Especially if you're into the WWII stuff, like I know some of you are. ::draws sparkly hearts around the story::

OH MY GOD, I NEARLY THREW UP WATCHING THAT GAME. It was an experience and while I'm on cloud nine now that it's over, I'm not eager to relive that experience again any time soon. My house was full of screams of agony and then screams of joy.

And Ryan Miller was a STAR. You guys should all be really damn proud of him (but I know you don't need me to say that).

I don't hate Crosby. In fact, I've always really kind of liked him so I'm beside myself that he scored the winner. But... I dunno... I wish he'd done more, though I am thrilled he eventually showed up. But I know I'm a minority in that respect, so I'll just sit in my lonely corner.

I've always liked Miller - except for when the Rangers play against him - so I am beyond thrilled that people are finally noticing how good he is.
