MILAN — The next six days can be the six days of their lives, the 25 men of the United States hockey team who can finish the job started but not completed one year ago at 4 Nations. The 3-1 win over Canada a year ago Sunday briefly vaulted the sport onto a stage unlike anything it has seen in years. But avenging the 3-2 overtime loss to the same team five days later with three straight wins and Olympic gold here in Milan would give American hockey a triumph for which it has waited 46 long years.
