I could copy/paste my previous post almost. What a hockey game! Another Gold Medal match,sudden death overtime. Golden goal for the Gold. Canada playing an amazing game, but the US men finished strong for the gold. Great game. All hail Hellenbuyck!

Final metal count. Full list here. I noticed that Kazakhstan won a single metal- a gold in figure skating.

As someone who normally isn't a big hockey fan, I 100% agree. That was amazing. Lots of back and forth, good sportsmanship. Just a great game all around.

Random tidbit: So I’m watching this clip of the Georgian pairs skaters using the Mortal Kombat theme for their music, and the announcer says “Mortal Kombat, I’m not sure what that means, but okay…”

And I’m thinking what planet was this dude born on? Is this just a kind of nerd shaming thing?

Or, who skates to musical themes based on a video game about ripping out people's spines? Is there a hidden message?
Given their country's relationship with Russia, it's not out of the question.

20 year olds, which is the age these skaters are?

Heck, me, if I were able to skate and they had 50 year olds league?
