ly, reigning Vezina Trophy winner Tim Thomas was the clear cut number one guy to lead the USA Men's Ice Hockey Team to a Gold Medal. But his play suffered early, as his Bruins currently sit at 11th in the Eastern Conference with a 6-7-2 record. The troublesome stat that may worry Team USA officials is that in his first three games Thomas suffered twelve goals against, also posting a dismal .870 save percentage in that span. It is just the first three games, but the Olympics are a short two weeks where teams can play up to 8 games in about 11 days. The Olympic committee will have worries if Thomas cannot handle the pressure of jumping right into a situation on the ice.
