But I think it went five hole." Crosby said about his golden goal. But it wasn't all fine and dandy as Canada blew a 2-0 lead." Well it's not a good felling when you blow a 2 goal lead. But we still had a good chance. And we stuck to our game and finally got one in there," Crosby said. The other medal results are: USA will get the silver and Finland will get the Bronze.
