do you ever get to see the views of
what's happening daily and nightly
on robson street, or whistler village
on nbc?

VANCOUVER — The coaches and players of the Canadian men's hockey team thought they played their finest game yet at the Vancouver Olympics, but their best wasn't good enough on Sunday.

The United States upstaged its North American rival with an important 5-3 victory in a hostile environment at Canada Hockey Place on the final day of the preliminary round.

The brilliant Buffalo Sabres netminder made 42 saves to keep his team a perfect 3-for-3.
