actualy Pronger is mean and tough.. problem is they are play international rules.. so you have to be carfull how mean and tough you are or you spend the rest of the time watching from the stands.. personaly I was surprised sheldon suray didn't make it.. but then he got hurt so it wouldn't have mattered anyways.
there are a few others I would have rather seen on the team but I guess thats why we have fish tanks and don't run hockey teams.. people who know a lot more than us are making the desisions. over all team canada is very good, this was the hardest team they have played and the fact that miller had a preformance of his life is what stopped us.. if we played again today witht he same players we probably woudl win.. unless miller can pull two preformances in a row out of his A$$ which is unlikely.
look at the stats, we killed them in shots on net, prosession time, hits, ect.. we were skating circles around them .. but Miller rose to the ocasion and played way above his normal preformance level.
