The Ice Yanks Will Play for GOLD

The US Men's Hockey Team will play for GOLD! After killing the Finns in a game that was decided in the first period of play, our boys have advanced to the finale. The Ice Yanks' opponent will be decided tonight when Canada and Slovakia take to the ice at 9:30 ET on CNBC. After losing to Team USA in round robin play, the Canadians have played flawlessly and should be very difficult to defeat especially with their countrymen cheering them on in Vancouver.

The Gold Medal game is scheduled for Sunday afternoon at 3:15 ET on NBC.

Once again, congrats and good luck to (my Gen-Y crush) Zach Parise and the rest of the Ice Yanks! USA! USA! USA!
