Synopsis

And faster than you could blink—not a second, but a
fraction—

Crosby shot the puck before Miller
reacted.

It slipped through his pads and like that
it was done,

The country erupted—Canada had won!

The Vancouver Olympics, 2010. Canada’s best hockey players
battle Team USA for the Olympic gold medal in men’s hockey. The stakes are high,
and the game starts off fast with both teams fighting for the puck. At the end
of the second period, Canada is ahead 2-1 and the gold medal is within reach.
Then, with minutes left in the third period, the US scores to tie the game.
With millions of Canadians on the edge of their seats, the game goes into
overtime and thirteen minutes in, Sidney Crosby shoots and scores. Sid the Kid
and one of the greatest hockey teams ever assembled clinches the gold medal on
home ice for Canada, the birthplace of hockey.

The Golden Goal captures the energy and excitement of
the game and celebrates the tenth anniversary of this iconic moment in Canadian
history. Perfect for reading aloud and sharing with kids of all ages.
