Хоккей Россия-Канада 5:4. ПОБЕДНЫЙ ГОЛ !
In case that title shows up very wonky in your browser, Russia beat the Canadians 5-4 to claim gold at the World Hockey Championships.
Here is a great videoclip of the Russian call of Ilya Kovalchuk's game winning goal.
Despite the fact that the evil Russians won, the game was highly entertained, and I don't feel all that upset that the wrong guys won :) Unlike some of the one-sided NHL Playoff contests we've been watching, this game had passion, speed, and lots of goals. This is the type of hockey the NHL wishes it could have on a regular basis.

Another random thought from our Southern Correspondent:
Going on the supposition that the Wings will eventually beat Dallas to face Pittsburgh, after the Cup final, it will be the first time in several years that the Cup parade will NOT be held in an arena parking lot...
Ooooh....
