two golds on ice

first gold - the womens hockey team beating the u.s. 3-2 in overtime. the states had a 2-0 lead yet canada came back to send it to overtime where they won it on the powerplay. canada had a penalty, then the u.s. took two in a row in short order. that is what did it. the u.s. gets silver and switzerland got the bronze beating sweden 4-3. it is canada's fourth straight gold matching the mens soviet union team that won four straight in 1964, 1968, 1972 and 1976. meanwhile in curling jennifer jones beat sweden 6-3 to win gold there. canada basically ran sweden out of rocks in the 10th. jones became the first womens team to go undefeated through the entire tournament AND first womens curling gold for canada since 1998 when sandra schmirler did the job. that is now 7g 9s and 4b for 20 medals. wow.
