    Canada wins the game in a shootout, and will play Finland for the gold medal tomorrow. The USA will play Sweden for the bronze.
     
    Travis Noe does score, off the crossbar and in, but it's still 2-1 Canada after 2 rounds.

    Canada shoots first, and Thomas Woods scores, off the post and in stick side.

    Timeout Canada. They want to win this game before it goes to a shootout.
     
    51:00
    And now an incredible stick save by Leggat lying on the ice! I don't know who the US player was, Junior Cadiz I think, but it looked like he had the game on his stick!
     
    50:45
    Foote with a slapper through a crowd, blocker save Kuhn.
