Sidney Crosby scores the Gold Medal Winning Goal at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics

My amazing Vancouver 2010 Olympic experience capped off with Sidney Crosby scoring in overtime to win the Gold Medal Hockey Game for Canada. Non-stop action leading up to the game-winning goal. I was lucky enough to be recording and capture the moment!

[@iseered22]

Watching this still gives me the chills, and being from Vancouver I get emotional. No other nationality will ever understand how much this meant to us, to win gold in Hockey, on home ice. Hockey is, and will always be Canada's game!

[@jackflynn779]

It was amazing! I was in Van for this too. And what a street party after. But I'd say now years later that Neymar's goal @ the 2016 Brazil Oly's was the equivalent of this, and gave Brazilians that same home country hero moment in a sport that they are just as insanely passionate about.

[@shootstraight91]

@@chrismcintyre1836 I used to disliked Crosby a lot during his first 2-3 years in the NHL for diving, instigating stuff and being a cry baby but he matured since. I never disliked a player because of their skills, it's more about what they do with it and how they carry themselves. He's definitely amongst the greatest but there's still people that stills sees him as Cry baby Crosby and there's a few video about it.

[@wilsonmcc1]

It’s true. I don’t think there is a country with a more single-minded sporting obsession than Canada and hockey. New Zealand and rugby union is close, but I don’t they’re quite up there.

[@Partypoppers55]

Idk about that, the US beating Russia and then going on to win the gold at home in Lake Placid was ten times more monumental than this and it's not even close.

[@THE-WAY_THE-TRUTH_THE-LIFE.]

@@anonymouslyawesome895 nah, Canadians have always cared about hockey, and probably always will. This ain't the U.S.A. here. Hockey has been the biggest sport in Canada for decades, and was bigger than Canada's "national" sport at the time. When you think Canada you think hockey, and that'll probably never change.

[@THE-WAY_THE-TRUTH_THE-LIFE.]

@@Partypoppers55 no way was that more monumental.. Notice how no one ever really mentions it, and that underdog story has happened too much in games now, that it's no longer impressive. The U.S. had won the most medals at the 2010 winter Olympics, and no one even talks about it, because most people were focusing on Canada. Not just because Canada finally won a gold medal while hosting at home, but they also had set a new record for the most gold medals won by a hosting Country at the time. Them beating the arch rival Americans in a close call, in the most important game of the Olympics/year, in the biggest sport in the country. (And the Canadian women's ice hockey team wnning gold before the men made it more big of a deal when the men won.) Canada was on top of the world that year, and all these things combined is what made this win so special. I agree that what the U.S.A. did was great, but I wouldn't consider it to be more monumental than this.

probably the most exciting 3 hours of sports i've ever seen in my life. what an incredible game. this is why i love hockey. Sid the Kid really set himself as a great this game. So much respect for him and the rest of that team. the USA showed some heart but we came up short. I'm an american and this is the greatest hockey game i've ever seen. Kudos to Canada, you earned it.

[@FOEKROKA]

Ryan Miller was absolutely incredible that night. For a few moments I thought he was gonna carry them to the gold.

[@ExicuteGaming]

@@FOEKROKA loved it

[@thearsenalmisfit2414]

it was a great win but the 72 series against the USSR far exceeds this for drama and what it ment. It was more than just a gsame for a gold medel. It was a fight to prove whos was the better way of life. Democracy or Communism . We had to win. Even though I was young I realised what was at stake. We all knew about the cold was as we were growing up in it and short of firing wepons this series was war, West against the East. I have no idea of what would have happened had we lost, but it would have effected the way we precieved the way we looked at our game. The end of the game 4 in Vancouver proved that when Team Canada was Booed off the ice after another loss. It was a feeling that persisted after the series as well. I remenber after the New Years Eve match beween the Red Army and the Canadians that ended 3-3. Peter Mahovalic was interviewed and he apologized to the country for not winning. Yes these were just games but they were and felt much more at the time.

[@alexjohnson95]

At first the commentators weren't sure what happened as he skated into the corner with hands up. It had to sink in for us that he scored, and we won. Can't quite imagine what a monumental experience it was seeing this live in person. Absolutely beautiful footage from your vantage point. Thanks for letting the world see this.🇨🇦✌🏻

I was a volunteer at the Games and my time was spent working at the cross country skiing/ski jump venue in Whistler. I had the last day of the Games off and watched the Gold Medal match in the Whistler town square. That moment was the greatest moment for bringing our country together and these days, now more than ever, we need to remind ourselves of how important these Games were for all of us.

[@buffalomafia7162]

I remember this game. I was watching it on TV at my grandmothers house. (She is no longer living). I am a Sabres fan, I loved Ryan Miller. This was a double-blow for me because Miller was in net and I HATE HATE HATE the Penguins and Crosby. Then when it ended, man it was pure depression, anger and heartbreak.... Just another day I would like to forget. Who knew four years later ,at the same time that the 2014 olympics was going on, that my grandmother went ill and died. And there I was watching the US getting there ass kicked in the bronze medal game. But this time she was not with me, we where at her house to pack up her things. That was one of my last times in my grandmothers house, its a day that I'll never forget. :(

When we arrived there was a group of my team and parents huddling around a teammates parents suv listening to the game. As both teams showed up to play, each team was huddled in the parking lot in their own groups and the parking lot lit up of when Sid the Kid scored the game winner. Both teams were in the parking lot until 10 minutes before the game was supposed to start lol. What a memory that was.
