The U.S. Men's Hockey Team stunned Canada on its home ice with a 5-3 win in the preliminary round. But these two great international rivals would meet again one week later, Feb. 28, 2010, to decide the gold medal. The U.S. fought back from a 2-goal deficit to tie the game with 25 seconds left in regulation and send it to overtime. But at 7:40 in the extra session, Canada's Sidney Crosby scored the game and gold medal-winner, 3-2.
