GANGNEUNG, South Korea (Reuters) - The Olympic women's ice hockey tournament will be remembered for two goals -- one by Jocelyne Lamoureux-Davidson that gave the United States the gold medal and one from Randi Heesoo Griffin for a unified Korean team that found its way into the Hockey Hall of Fame.

Lamoureux-Davidson's 'Oops, I did it again, now you see, now you don't' shootout winner was a thing of beauty that gave the U.S. a 3-2 victory over archrivals Canada in the final, ending nearly two decades of gold-medal frustration.
