Twitter was ablaze with reaction around the NHL to the epic women's gold-medal game in which Canada rallied from a 2-0 deficit late in the third period to force overtime and capture gold with Marie-Philip Poulin's power-play goal 8:10 into the extra session. Patriotism was rampant in victory for the Canadians with Edmonton Oilers defenseman Andrew Ferance including a vine posting of his teammates celebrating the golden goal.
Woohoo!!!! #CANvsUSA https://t.co/TLkByKW4nP
