It's Olympic hockey time! The U.S.A. opens the preliminary round in Vancouver today with a 3 p.m. (EST) match against Switzerland. Russia, Canada, and Sweden are the clear medal favorites, so if the U.S. is gonna make it to the podium for the first time since '92, starting goalie Ryan Miller will need to get hot. Quickly. "It's just a short two-week tournament, and the room for error after the first few games changes significantly," says the Buffalo Sabres netminder. "So, I'm going to have fun with the Olympic experience, but also dial it in and have a good tournament." Incidentally, our connection with the 29-year-old Michigan native goes beyond the fact that we're hockey fans—Miller's currently dating Noureen DeWulf, a former Hot Complex. (Eat your heart out, Avery!)
Our High Five columns usually feature "best of"s, but for this edition, we had Miller name the most unrealistic hockey movies of all time. Everybody loves Slap Shot and Youngblood, so these are the hockey-inspired movies that make Miller say, "Puck outta here!" Read on for his list...

I don't want that to happen.
