As someone who has seen just about every minute of action this Olympics, I can say unequivocally that the MVP of this tournament has been Jeremy Roenick. He has handled Mike Milbury deftly and brutally, making for fantastic viewing most every intermission.

It's only right, then, that someone paid homage to his brilliant work by wearing a vintage JR jersey behind the Finland bench Sunday night.

It's a good thing, too, because by this point in the break I had almost forgotten what the Flyers logo looks like.

The level of contempt is just excellent. I think everyone in the hockey world knows Milbury is a complete tool and it’s great too see Roenick acknowledge this, albeit he does so by refusing to make eye contact with him. I just wish he’d clock him in the face for all our benefit.

Gotta love JR with the verbal jabs. I don’t really think Milbury Dinglebury has caught on to half of them.

I was laughing my ass off a few times, JR just looks at him with a “WTF is wrong with you” on his face.

Best JR line in the Olympics to date...

Milbury, “i don’t think anyone’s going to get under Crosby’s skin and have a significant impact”

Roenick: “have you watched him in the NHL??”

LMAO!

He’s a great commentator. And his exchanges with Millbury are CLASSIC! Anyone catch them discussing the “most exciting player”? My sides still hurt from laughing.
