Once again, the two greatest powers in womens hockey will collide with Olympic gold on the line. Austin Seferian-Jenkins Jersey . Canada and the United States square off for the gold medal on Thursday. Listen to the game live on TSN Radio starting at 11:30am et/8:30am pt. Both teams were able to show their strength in the semifinals but in different areas of the game. The United States pummeled Sweden 6-1, bringing their output to 20 goals for the tournament thus far. Three American forwards – Amanda Kessel, Kendall Coyne and Brianna Decker – sit tied for second in tournament scoring with six points apiece through four games. The trio combined for seven points against Finland. The Canadians, meanwhile, won a war of attrition against Switzerland. Stymied often by Swiss netminder Florence Schelling, the Canadian women showed grit and resilience in a 3-1 victory to make their fifth straight gold medal game. In two games against Switzerland, Schelling stopped 109 Canadian shots on goal. Canada was timely with their offence in the semifinal, however, scoring their three goals in a span of just over four minutes in the first period. Canada and the United States have met in three of the four gold medal games in Olympic history. Canada won gold in 2002 and 2010 with the Americans claiming gold at the inaugural tournament in Nagano, Japan in 1998. Canada also won gold in 2006 after Sweden beat the Americans in the semifinal. The Canadians got the best of the Americans in the preliminary round, winning their round robin finale 3-2 thanks to a pair of goals from Meghan Agosta-Marciano. That game marked just the second time in the history of the Olympic womens tournament that the North American rivals met without the gold being at stake. Prior to the Olympics, the Americans topped Canada at the 2013 Womens World Championships in Ottawa, beating Canada 3-2 in the gold medal game on Amanda Kessels game-winner. Canada would respond by topping the U.S. in the 4 Nations Cup in November, winning their game 4-2 en route to claiming the tournament title. The continental rivals have also met six other times since October in an exhibition series. The United States took the final four games of the series which were all contested in December. Canada won the opening two games of the set, back in October.

First, the Red Wings scored the tying goal after officials missed the puck hitting the protective netting, then the Kings wound up losing in a shootout. That could affect playoff positioning in the Eastern and Western Conferences, and thats a concern for everyone. Malik Jackson Jersey . The 2014 edition will be the ninth meeting between the Caps and Vikes in a tradition that dates back to 2005. "Since the original Whitecaps, the club has enjoyed fantastic support from fans in Victoria and all across Vancouver Island," said Whitecaps FC president Bob Lenarduzzi. http://www.thejaguarsfansshop.com/Jaguars-Brandon-Linder-Draft-Jersey/ .ca looks back at the stories and moments that made the year memorable.TORONTO - Ontarios Liberal government cannot say what the budget is for security and transportation at the 2015 Pan Am Games in Toronto, Tourism and Sport Minister Michael Chan admitted Thursday. "We dont have a finalized number on that," Chan admitted to reporters after ducking Opposition questions in the legislature. "Look at the Vancouver (Olympics), where they had one number come out on security and they had to revise it about four or five times, so I dont want to speculate." The final bill for security at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics came in at just under $1 billion, almost five times the original budget. The Ontario government was already under fire for admitting the $700 million cost of building the athletes village for the Toronto games is not included in the $1.4 billion budget, and the Opposition accused the Liberals of trying to hide the final bill. "Theyve decided theyre going to have that $1.4 billion budget to cover a certain amount of things, and then any time anything comes up thats going to inflate that budget, theyre going to put it somewhere else and not be honest with the public about what these games are really going to cost," said PC critic Rod Jackson. The Progressive Conservatives said the Liberals wasted over $1 billion cancelling gas plants to save seats in the 2011 election, and the fact they still dont know the budget for security and transportation at the Pan Am Games is appalling. "For him to not be able to answer what the security and transportation costs are going to be for the Pan Am Games is terrifyiing to me," said Jackson. Marcell Dareus Jersey. "This is a minister who doesnt have a grip, is a disaster on this file, and he needs to step down." The New Democrats also lashed out at Chan for refusing to say what the government has budgeted for security and transportation at the international sporting event. "Its another example of a government claiming it wants to be open and transparent and not doing the basics like letting people know what the costs are at the games," said NDP Leader Andrea Horwath. "You cant claim you want to be transparent and open and then not provide figures and information when asked by the opposition." But Chan was insistent that he did not want to provide a budget figure now only to have to change it later on, and he lashed out at the Conservatives for saying the security bill alone will be hundreds of millions of dollars. "Mr. Rod Jackson mentioned a lot of numbers but to me those are rubbish numbers, fantasized numbers, because at the moment I dont have a number," he said. Jackson said he doesnt know if the Liberals have a budget figure for security and transportation that they dont want to release or if they truly dont have a budget yet. "Either way, its appalling and terrifying that this government doesnt have a grip," he said. The government had to tell officials with the TO2015 Pan Am committee to tighten the rules on expenses after some questionable claims by executives, who are eligible for a total of $7 million in bonuses for staying on the job until the event is over.
