It was nice to come back from the weekend from hell to this news!

Yay Canada!
Way to go guys! Woooooohoooo!
Quite impressed with Toews, too bad Jordan Staal didn't show better, happy for Armstrong. Amazing final goal for Nash; have never seen a player score such a goal while carrying a defenceman on his back.
Wish Brewer was still an Oiler. Was a little upset that Ward got the final call over Roli (what the hell?! grrrrrr).
New perspective on Phanuef; in the midst of all the celebrating he made sure he included Roli's contributions to their success there. I started thinking about how much he's hated for his awsome hits - kinda of like Raffi I think. Yet off the ice these two seem like decent, thoughtful fellows. Then with Pronger's vicious assault the other night, this became even more significant for me. Comes down to character.

I hope that because Roli didn't get the final game, it wouldn't be a detriment to his confidence. Roli wanted the game...he wanted it bad.
Go Canada!

I think Roli is a tough vet who knows what he can bring, but I do wonder if his ego got a little shiv tho'. I'd sure like to know why Murray went with Ward.
I'm really happy Roli's season ended on a positive note after this frustrating year.

I don't know why Murray went with Ward. If I had to guess, I would think it has to do with the way Ward plays. He's solid, but unspectacular. With Roli, we all know that he has his fair share of mistakes, but he would always make up for it by stoning the opposition. I guess in the final gold medal game, one mistake may be too much. Whatever. It's hard for most people to understand the brilliance that is Roli. :)
