another olympic memory. 1998 nagano winter olympics. tara lipinski became the youngest gold medal winner in winter games history when she won figure skating gold at 15 yrs old. great moment for her. she's my favorite. womens ice hockey was added and the u.s. beat canada in the gold medal game. nhl players were used in mens hockey for the first time and the czech republic won gold there.
Quarter finals 3 and 4
Heartbreak for Canada. Lost to Czech Republic 4-3. Rough first, better second and great third until a borderline penalty call on Canada (it was a clean hit) Czechs scored on power play and that was it. Heartbreaking, frustrating and disappointing finish to said game. Other quarter finals had Finland beat Slovakia 5-3. Semi finals has Sweden vs Finland and United States vs Czech Republic. Both games on Saturday.
