Tough loss today to team Canada in Olympic Hockey. In one of the better played contests that's already being discussed as the greatest Olympic Hockey game ever played, the label of tough loss silver medalists belongs to Team USA. Far from the offensive explosion one week ago, each possession from both teams was met with collapsing, smothering defense, but in Team USA's case, it also featured some unreal goaltending from Ryan Miller.
Producing 36 saves against the high powered, fast skating, sticky puck-handling Canadian team, Miller more than held his own in winning tournament MVP. He also showed tremendous class and good sportsmanship afterwards in defeat.
Today's loss won't stop The Beard from chanting "U-S-A!"
