Crosby may not quite have the points totals to put him in greatest of all time contention, but until it is surpassed, this will always be the most legendary goal in Canadian hockey history, and for that Sidney Crosby will forever be immortalized.
Can we just discuss how much smashing into the boards with his bare hand with the weight of 3 adult men must have hurt Niedermeyer? But he didn't give a fuck in that moment.
You couldn't ever hope to have it turn out that way. Simply incredible. Tell ya what, it wouldn't have been as "perfect" as this, but I wouldn't have been too upset if USA won. I'm a proud Canadian but team USA played it's ass off and could've easily won. Huuuge respect. But yeah, greatest game I've ever seen.
Gretzky to Lemieux 87 Canada Cup was better. It is incomprehensibly surreal watching the top two legends of all time on the same game winning historical goal. But this Olympic goal was amazing nevertheless.
Chris Cuthbert is the best play by play and general sports announcer in our country's history. I've seen him do hockey, figure skating and every single sport in the Olympics. The man is a gem
This never gets old and I’m from the United States. But I’m a huge Sid and Penguins fan. You can hear Sid yell to Iggy twice for the puck! That kid was born to play hockey. One of the greatest ever!
A once in a lifetime moment for Canada. So much was riding on this. Amazing moment that will never be forgotten. Most watched broadcast in Canadian TV history. One of Canadas all time greatest sporting moments if not THE greatest.
I grew up in North Vancouver and was 16 at the time of the games. Spent just about every night downtown attending the litany of free concerts, skipped school most of the games to watch or attend events, and I remember watching this one with my family in my childhood home. Never before those games and never after have I felt that kind of pride to be a Canadian. Thanks for the memories, I’m so grateful for them!

Came back for the vibes
This was definitely a golden goal but it wasn't as big as Henderson's platinum goal,never will be!
Gotta love Ron Wilson……"What the f*** happened" ? Way to be in the game Ron
All Crosby.
Gretzky to Lemieux 87 Canada Cup was better. It is incomprehensibly surreal watching the top two legends of all time on the same game winning historical goal. But this Olympic goal was amazing nevertheless.
I would have loved to hear the commentators from countries like Russia, Japan and Australia
Spain commentators shouting “Goooooooooaaaallll” made my life.
France TV was the best one
He didn't do SHIT the entire Olympic series and then he gets ALL the clout. 100% unfair to the REAL MVPs such as Iginla, Webber, and Luongo
I didn't expect to stay till the end and watch every one!
There was a wonderful game against Slovakia and you make no highlight with Slovak commentary? Shame.
no czech commentary? finns ? swedes ? etc
usa broadcast sounds SO DISAPPOINTED 🤣🤣🤣🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
I was hoping to hear Goal Goal Goal Goal Goal …….lol
Best goal for canadian hockey!
I’ve never heard Doc so depressed
I can still remember this game like it was yesterday. All the commentators were hyped up about that golden goal..except USA Commentator lol
This guy is amazing!!!. He's the Messi of the Ice hockey…
Holy shit France went NUTS LOL
This was really well put together, thank you!
Nothing beats the RDS call with "Et le BUUUUUUT!"
There is a reason its called "the goal heard around the world".
to this day I still get teary eyed.
Even the American commentators were happy about it
Face it America, nobody likes you.
Chris Cuthbert is the best play by play and general sports announcer in our country's history. I've seen him do hockey, figure skating and every single sport in the Olympics. The man is a gem
13 years ago today and still awesome!
After the Norway clip of the goal you see American coach Ron Wilson, who’s actually Canadian born, saying “who fucked up “?. What an asshole.
Not me getting chills 16 times
13 years later I still remember this moment, I get chills thinking of it again.
Who’s here after 13 years??? What a game that was!!!
Still throw my hand up every time!
GBR, ESP, ITA, this ain't soccer.
CROSBY SCORES! SIDNEY CROSBY! THE GOLDEN GOAL! AND CANADA HAS A ONCE IN A LIFETIME OLYMPIC GOLD!
This never gets old and I’m from the United States. But I’m a huge Sid and Penguins fan.
You can hear Sid yell to Iggy twice for the puck! That kid was born to play hockey. One of the greatest ever!
….so proud of Vancouver…Crosby from the Eastern tip clinching it for Canada at the Western tip.
A once in a lifetime moment for Canada. So much was riding on this. Amazing moment that will never be forgotten.
Most watched broadcast in Canadian TV history. One of Canadas all time greatest sporting moments if not THE greatest.
Thank you so much for vid. Brings back such great momories
0:02 IGGY!
"IGGY!!" – one of the most famous quotes in Canadian history.
Once upon a time I was proud of Canada
I grew up in North Vancouver and was 16 at the time of the games. Spent just about every night downtown attending the litany of free concerts, skipped school most of the games to watch or attend events, and I remember watching this one with my family in my childhood home. Never before those games and never after have I felt that kind of pride to be a Canadian. Thanks for the memories, I’m so grateful for them!
The European countries were more hyped than canada
Still tearing up 13 years later. Can't wait for fucking Olympic Winter
Everyone of those was cheering for Canada hahaha
The "Iggy" heard around the world….
That look on Wilson’s smug, highly punchable face will never get old.
