In a last minute upset, the USA men’s hockey team scored on Canada to put the game into overtime. We’ve already discussed how this game is probably the most important event for our country’s morale in the Olympics, and just when it looked like Canada was going to beat our collective butts, our scrappy team came back with the shot heard round the world.

Update: Canada won, but still.

Watch the Overtime Goal and Canada’s Winning Goal, Along with our favorite tweets below.

FelixSalmon: How is it that more people I follow on Twitter seem to be watching this hockey match thingy than watched the Superbowl?

Rachel Sklar: Omigod. Across two nations, Canadians suddenly barf in their mouths.

Chuck Todd: It’s one thing for US to piss off all of Canada if we win today. Imagine, tho, if Team USA makes noise this summer at the World Cup.

I agree, it was a hell of a game, and I don’t understand all the rules to hockey. But I was glued to the TV.

Unbelievable game start to finish, but why – WHY – did it have to be Princess Crosby potting the winner?! He was a non-factor all tournament. It killed me to see the expressions of the US players as they got their medals. The youngest team stood the tallest the past 2 weeks.

Rockin’Game! Hey, we lost but it was cool with high drama, overtime. I can’t complain because Sid Crosby of my fave team Pittsburgh Penguins got the winner.

Congrats Canada!
