Capitals goalie Logan Thompson quiets doubters with impressive Olympic performance

One of the more discussed storylines for Team Canada heading into the Olympics was whether or not Washington Capitals goalie Logan Thompson was going to be on the roster. He was left off Canada's 4 Nations team last year that won the Gold Medal in an overtime win over Team USA.

Thomson clearly felt snubbed by last year's team, and he wasn't about to let that happen again. Earlier in the season, NHL insider Elliotte Friedman hinted that Thompson was being fueled by last year's omission in an attempt to get on the Olympic roster. He did, and it didn't take long for him to make an impact for the Gold Medal favorites.
