Fully agree. Great win, but these guys are pros. This wasn't the "Best Ever". In fact, this would rank behind the Sweden, Czechoslovakia and Finland games - - along with the USSR classic of the Lake Placid Olympics.
Doesn't even come within 3,000 miles of 1980.
Great stuff nonetheless, but be careful with the hyperbole.
Also: it wasn't for a medal, just seeding. AND it ended in a shootout. Great contest but hardly historic.
