WJC: Who are you cheering for?

[Lauro]

1.) Canada (my hockey country)
2.) Germany (my country)
3.) Finland (Niemelä, Hirvonen)

 

[The Head Crusher]

Canada obviously, but I want Finland to have a good showing offensively for my world juniors pools sake.

 

[57special]

Tend to go for Canada or the US, but have been known to be a closet Finn supporter. Will also cheer for any prospect of my NHL team, so if, say, Russia beats Canada 4-3, with Khusnutdinov scoring a hattie, I'll be, " NOOOOOoooo....(yes, yes,yes!)....

Every year I find myself rooting for a stray.

If a team acts badly, then I will root against them, even it's USA or Canada.

 

[Chainshot]

I most frequently root for underdogs in individual games. I would love to see the Slovaks come out of this particular tournament with a win.

 

[Czechboy]

Czechs then Slovaks. I like all the nations. A part of me would be happy if Russia could win a gold. They're all over the medal tables but no Golds and their program is looking great.

 

[filip85]

Finland

I’m an American. I’m cheering for Slovakia. I hate Team Canada. I’m sick of all the political BS with USA Hockey. I love the Slovak kids. I even bought a shirt:

[TheDawnOfANewTage]

I’m kinda liking Germany. I’m ‘merican, but eh, I’d like to see German hockey grow even more. Also those unis are filthy. It’s gonna be Canada, of course, so I just hope Power has a strong showing.

Thanks! I’m fatter than him though. I’m 6’1 215lbs of marshmallowy dad bod. Lol. I usually get told I look like Patrick Warburton.

 

[Ezekial]

I'm not some sort of nationalist or jingoistic person, but I root for USA in nation on nation tournaments.

But I have enjoyed the Slovakia game vs USA and tonight against Sweden so I hope those kids make a run if the USA falters.

 

[ZEBROA]

Sweden, but we mostly play like a B nation i WJC. But gets hated like a A nation. Finland gets treated like underdogs While being better then Sweden most times. I root for Finland when Sweden dont reach medal round, wich are most of the times.

 

[BigRangy]

General Rules:
1. Canada
2. The host country’s team

[EK47]

Sweden, then Finland. Then the flavour of the month.

'cuz the Devils face paint?

 

[karhukissa]

Finland, Sweden and then Slovakia.

 

[Lartsaman]

Finland obviously. If we are eliminated, I dont really care who wins. Slovakia allways have my sympathy and I wish all the best for them, but not really cheer for them.

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Since Germany is safe and wont play for medals I'm not gonna say Germany.

1. Slovakia - got a darkhorse feel to them. Love that they might have a new golden generation coming. Lack G maybe. Dunno, but I'm excited for their future.

2. Sweden - haven't won in ages and the roster is mental on D imo. Super strong, super talented kids. Feels like we're gonna see everyone of them in a big role in the NHL.
