On Tue night, Team Canada defeated the US 2-0 in Women's World Hockey to claim their 8th consecutive gold. I was studying, but I caught snippets of it and was rather impressed by the women's skating skills (fast).

About 15 mins into the 3rd period, the US women scored a goal. At first, it looked like the puck hit the post. Whistle was blown, and the decision went upstairs. In the meantime, the commentators went over the play from all possible cameras, and you could clearly see that the puck went in: a fast shot that hit the back post and bounced out hard. Unfortunately, the Finnish referee waved it no goal. It was sad to see the players get robbed of a goal, and it dimmed the Canadian victory.

Well, just a little. I'm still glad we won. :)
