U-S-A! U-S-A!

Watching Olympic hockey is great. Not only is the U.S. winning, including tonight's epic win over Canada. (An awesome game that I'm guessing a lot of people didn't see because it was on MSNBC, while NBC showed bobsledding. Is it any surprise the Winter Olympics are by far the less popular of the two in our country?)

Brian Rafalski has been huge, scoring two goals for the second straight game and adding an assist tonight. He's the oldest and probably most decorated player on the U.S. roster, but he's been the best player in the tournament. And he lives in Waupaca in the offseason.

Dany Heatley scored for Canada tonight, second straight game that's happened. And Joe Pavelski and Ryan Suter had assists in the last U.S. game.

What other college hockey program can boast of success like this in these Olympics?
