WC: Quarterfinal Pre-Game Talk

After seeing Team Canada crash and burn in the QF's for the past five years, all i want for the love of God is for this team to make it to the Semis for once. Please end this QF curse. Exiting the QF's for five straight years, even in years when they looked so dominant in the Round Robin games, has not been a good look for this country.
That being said- I like Canada, USA, Sweden and Finland to make it to the Semis .

Hoping for Switzerland and Russia to win. Canada will easily beat Belarus and Finland - Czech is a toss up.

Though I am a big fan of Russian team it is unreal that Sweden could score the only goal against the team with no defence
It would be good from a World Championship perspective to have USA and Canada in the semi finals, and having a North American rivalry in the gold medal game could hopefully give it some attention overseas as well, giving this tournament a little boost.
However, I don't see it as impossible for both Belarus and Switzerland to knock them out and it would be really funny

Well, our chances would be much better if the Czechs could somehow score under zero goals... We will probably have like half a dozen unbelievably great scoring chances and then maybe end up winning with a ridiculous bounce via three players through the traffic. So, 1-0 to Finland.

Yesterday Finns had at least three chances to send a puck into the empty net but failed. So I agree with you.
