Vancouver Winter Olympics. Gold medal hockey game. Canada vs. USA.
The neighbours drop by Emmett's house to watch one of the most exciting match-ups ever. The game is exciting beyond belief. Team USA ties the game with seconds left in the third period.
Emmett's mom chews her nails down to the nub.
Emmett is completely riveted.
Then, Sidney Crosby scores the winning goal in overtime, Canada wins gold, and Canadians from coast to coast to coast go completely crazy.
All of Canada, that is, except for Emmett.
