Holy crap, that was a quarter of an inch from being a chance (albeit a small one) at a USA/ Slovakia final! Of course, the Mighty Ducks movie taught me that a quarter of an inch the other way misses entirely.
Instead, we get the chance to prove that we are, indeed, THE supreme power in international hockey against Canada. Oh well, somehow we'll manage.

Team USA News:
- Blues88 passes along word that our Johnson is huge, even on Team America.

NHL News:
- Rene Borque re-upped with the Flames.
- And Cal Clutterbuck re-signed with Minnesota.
Olympic News:
- Doug Wickenheiser's cousin, Hayley, says "Get real..." regarding the Canadian Women's Team's Gold medal victory celebration. Frankly, that's all the explanation I need.

Other Stuff:
- Assassins be trippin'
- Apolo Ohno be trippin'
- Real or not, I'll take this Twitter account over The Tonight Show with Jay Leno any day of the week.
