46 years on from the Miracle on Ice, the American men's ice hockey team have finally won Olympic Gold again.
Taking the chocolates in a thrilling overtime win against their northern neighbours, the Americans have ascended to the top of the podium once again.
4 years after being bested by countries with way less money and resources than them, the Americans scored two minutes into overtime courtesy of a player who had chipped the fuck out of his tooth.
While the bloody mouthed goal scorer won his rightful praise, the man of the match was the American shot stopper, Helleybuck who stopped an absurd 41 of the 42 shots he faced.
With the Americans celebrating, one of their arch rivals are now figuring out where they fell short in the goal medal match.
Dirty laundry has already since been aired, with former Canadian players claiming team has been beset by 'internal tensions.'
"Won't win a gold when the boys are internalising and compartmentalising their identity on such a public stage," tweeted Connor Brady, a Canadian player from back in the day.
"Yeah, the bickering and infighting in this group needs to stop," said another.
"Should have wiped the dirty bathroom floor with these filthy Yank fucks."
"Instead we are taking home silver..."
"3 Gold Medals this century just isn't good enough."
More to come.
