OK -- here's the deal:


This thread will stay on topic.




You do not want us to start pushing buttons.

I haven't seen the Czech team so far, but here's to hoping we don't overlook them.

 

[Rabid Ranger]

Tough call. The U.S. clearly outclasses the Czechs on paper, but rarely does that matter. I say the U.S. sucks it up and beats the Czechs 4-2.

The US will bounce back from the disappointing outcome of last night.
BTW is this game going to be televised?

My question exactly. Center Ice? Anywhere, in the States?

I don't think it is. The next game aired (on tape delay) looks to be the semi-final game on the 3rd (if the U.S. makes it there of course).

Is that one on CI?

 

[shaner8989]

the swe/ fin game is on tsn. the usa game should be on

No, FSN

No more games on CI unless they are nice enough to add the QF game.

 

[Russian_fanatic]

Is Schneider starting, because he should because of was awesome vs Canada, and was right there with Pogge all night.

 

[El_Scoobo]

I'll say 4-2 for the U.S.

The game is televised in Canada (on TSN). FIN - SWE at 7pm & US - CZE at 11pm.

 

[Den]

I want an upset

I think its the other way around, according to the commercial I just saw, but anyways, both games are on TSN tomorrow. Should be a good day of hockey for me.

Anyways, USA 8 CZE 2, SWE 2 FIN 1

I can see two things happening. Either the USA wins by 4 goals or more or the Czechs upset the Americans. I'm picking the Czechs to win 4-3.

I dunno... If you go by the IIHF website it's what I said http://www.iihf.com/Hydra/Tournaments_06/output/w20/hydra.iihf.com/IIHF_Core/jsp/content/web_output/index.jsp@compId=55

You could be right though... I though I may have heard that they switched it around..

It all depends on how the Czechs play. If they bring their A game, then they might have a chance (albeit a slight one) to upset the U.S. but I think the U.S. will easily handle this team.

Its Russia I'm very worried about.

 

[Shoalzie]

I have a bad feeling that Team USA is self-destructing. The Czechs take this one, 4-3. All that promise and hype over nothing...

 

[Rise from the Ashes]

go CZECHHHHHSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS MAREK SCHWARZ!

 

[SIBIR]

4 - 2 Czech

 

[CSKA]

5:4 Czechssssssssssssssssssss

 

[RangerBoy]

No, FSN

No more games on CI unless they are nice enough to add the QF game.

FSN has the semi-finals game on January 3 and the gold medal game on January 5 if Team USA gets that far

3-2 Usa
