Second Guessing

Maybe goaltending was a problem after all for the U.S. olympic team. With Rick DiPietro looking very medicore at times in the 4-3 elimiation lose to the Finns and with neither Roberet Esche or John Grahame providing stellar performances maybe Ryan Miller would have made the difference for the U.S.
DiPietro played well in the round robin portion of the tournament but when the stakes got higher in the elimination round he failed to make the saves that win the games. Not all of the blame should fall on the goalie. The U.S. defenceman are aging and not even the years of experience could make Chris Chelios or Derian Hatcher fast enough to catch the speedier competition on a larger ice surface.
Chris Drury had an excellent final game of the tournament finishing +1 with an assist. Come on home and rest up for the playoff push. That's what really matters.
Could Miller have been the difference? Maybe, but the rest of the team is in transition right now. In four years we can see Ryan Miller bring the gold back home.
