^ he was not quite healed 4 days before the tournament. That doesn't mean he wasn't healed by the time he played in the first game.
His performance in that first game would suggest he was close to 100% in terms of health.
His performance in the games vs the US would suggest he can't keep up anymore against the top players in the world.
If he's on next year's Olympic team, I worry it'll be like Sakic in 2006, where he was good against Italy and Germany, but all zeroes after that.
