With the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, complete, it was the host nation that earned the most medals, while the United States and Norway finished in second and third, respectively.

The Russians earned 13 gold medals, to go along with 11 silver and nine bronze medals. America finished with 28 total medals, beating out Norway for second place by just two medals.

Canada sweeps hockey

For the second consecutive Winter Games, Canada won the gold medal in both men’s and women’s hockey.

In the men’s bracket, the Canadians defeated Sweden 3-0 in the final, just two days after a hard-fought 1-0 win over the U.S.

Goals for Canada were scored by Jonathan Toews, Sidney Crosby and Chris Kunitz. Montreal Canadians goaltender Carey Price earned his second consecutive shutout of the tournament, saving all 24  shots he faced.

On the women’s side, Canada roared back from a 2-0 deficit against the Americans to win the gold medal 3-2 in overtime.

Team USA saw its 2-0 lead disappear when Canadian Brianne Jenner scored to make it a one goal game with three minutes, 26 seconds left. With the goalie pulled, Team Canada tied the game with 55 seconds left, just moments after a U.S. shot that would have sealed the victory hit the post.

After a questionable call sent American Hilary Knight to the penalty box for cross-checking, Marie-Philip Poulin scored the winner for Canada, earning her country the gold medal and sending the U.S. home with a silver.

Men’s hockey fails to medal

Despite going undefeated in the preliminary round, the U.S. men’s hockey failed to medal for the first time since the 2006 games in Turin, Italy.

Following a semifinals loss to Canada on Friday, it seemed that the Americans had run out of energy, getting destroyed by Finland 5-0 in the bronze medal game.

This was the first time in Olympic history that the Americans were shutout in back-to-back games, while the 1-0 loss to Canada provided the USA with its first goal-less performance since 1976.

Shiffrin makes history

American Mikaela Shiffrin, 18, made history as she became the youngest Olympian ever to win a gold medal in the Slalom portion of alpine skiing.

Finishing with a time of 1:44.54, Shiffrin beat out Austrians Marlies Schild and Kathrin Zettel, who came away with the silver and bronze, respectively.
