Press Secretary Robert Gibbs opened Friday's daily briefing sporting the Olympic Team Canada hockey jersey. The appearance was a make good on a bet with Canadian counterpart Dimitri Soudas-- spokesperson to Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper . The wager was over the Gold medal match between the U.S. and Canadian women's hockey teams-- Canada prevailed 2-0. However, just moments into the briefing, Gibbs pulled somewhat of a powerplay by peeling off the Canadian jersey, revealing the Team USA colors.
