Olympics on the Big Screen

        Cineplex Entertainment and CTV have been broadcasting the Olympics since the opening ceremonies.  Last night was the first time I experienced the games on the big screen.  It was really cool how the night came to be!  My plans had fallen through for the night so I thought I’d check out at least one game in super size J On the way out of my building I ran into my buddy Mike, who had gotten of work early.  Perfect timing if you ask me.

Canada pushed as hard as they could but it wasn’t enough.  At the end of the first period Canada out shot the U.S. 19-6 but the U.S. were still up by one.  Canada came back to tie it up early in the second.   Shots on goal were 23 - 9 in favour of Canada at the half way mark of the second period.  This to me says they should have had more goals.   A hit late in second involving three players from Canada had fans worried but luckily all were able to continue.  Just minutes later the U.S. too...
