In what was the best hockey game I've watched from start to finish USA's TJ Oshie became an American Fucking Legend with 4 shootout goals to beat Russia 3-2 this morning. In a back and forth spirited game in Sochi in front of Putin the Americans showed their resiliency by never backing down and sacrificing limbs by blocking a tremendous amount of shots from Russian stars Ilya Kovalchuk and Alexander Ovechkin.
Oshie will forever live in hockey folklore with his clutch shootout goals. International rules allow teams to send out the same shooter if they want and Oshie got the call today. Silky smooth with calm hands Oshie showed why he was the pick to click by delivering in front of a hostile Russian crowd. Speaking of delivering check out Oshie's wife Lauren. Oshie is already a legend off the ice apparently.
Almost forgot what it was like going out on a Saturday night 🙆 @OSH74 pic.twitter.com/EU42dM8VZA
