Why is Canada so quiet tonight?

Hahaha, I sort of snorted when I saw the thread title.

I live in a really settled-down kind of town, in a quiet area of it at that. I rarely hear anything here at all. But now I think there's still people screaming outside my window every once in a while.

Either it's the zombie invasion or we won the olympics. Oh wait

I have to share this little comment that came out of my 75yr old father before the game today... it was meant in jest when it was said, as it is when posted here.

My wife is an American and my Dad, like me, is Canadian. They were exchanging some barbs about the first meeting between Canada and USA during these games when the old man says "I would rather be from a place where it is sacrilege to lose then one where it is a 'Miracle' to win!"
