Well, in round-robin competitions, they have a schedule to comply with, figure-skating, etc. so they have to do something like that in the preliminary rounds. I don't know but if I had to have to guess, the medal round games are played until there's a legitimate goal.

Nope. At Nagano, Hayek stonewalled the Canadians in the shootout to decide the semis

Yes, that's right (although it was Dominik Hasek). One would hope they've changed that by now.

Spell check, apparently

It was called off because the goal had come off the post on the previous save. As I understand it, in the NHL it's a goal, not so in International Hockey.

Also not a goal in high school, juniors, and college hockey. Should have been whistled dead before the shot.

Heck of a game. Tough result for Russia.

I know jack squat about hockey. I haven't watched a second of NHL this year, but even I was into that game and have the DVR set for the game tomorrow to watch when I get home from church.
