WJC: Is it really possible for Sweden to beat the US?

[Future GOAT]

I figured Sweden would beat the US. Aside from that weird game vs Canada the US didn't look all that great and definitely hasn't lived up to the hype they had going in to this tournament.

Definitely don't think Canada is a level below USA and Sweden.

Me neither, in fact I think it's likely Canada wins Gold. Wouldn't be a shocker to me though if Sweden wins either, I just think Canada's offense might be the deciding factor.

Sweden and Canada are clearly the best two teams of the tournament.

I think Sweden has this easy, the US players are way slower on the skates and have less pure talent. I think it will a relatively effortless game for Sweden, I say 5-2

Wow that was quite the upset!

It was only an upset if you didn't expect Sweden to win... they have the strongest roster and great national team pedigree.

 

[JETZZZ]

Despite the game being over and all, I still strongly feel that Sweden has 0 chance and anybody saying its possible is still kidding themselves. American team is just way to strong.

The question has been answered, no need to keep this open.
