Canada

 

[Vic Rattlehead*]

What it comes down to is goaltending and defence, and I believe that Canada has the edge on all teams, so I pick Canada.

 

[canucksfan]

Canada. They have the best forwards, defence and goaltending out of all the teams.

 

[Canuck21t]

You mean who will win the Cup? There's no 3rd nor 2nd place at the World Cup right? Therefore there's no medal.

Anway on paper, Canada should win.

 

[Ocelot]

I'm gonig with Canada.

 

[Kerberos*]

Canada is the best hockey team in the world bar none. They will win it all. No contest.

 

[Crosbyfan]

This poll should end up 90% Canada to reflect the fact that Canada has a roughly 53% (no more, no less) chance of winning the Cup.

 

[Crosbyfan]

I'm gonig with Canada.

I'm goniginla too! (I'm drinking while posting)

[Markov]

Russia. If they could get their crap together.

 

[Burnaby_Joe*]

I'm going with Canada, but I question their defence.

 

[Psycho Papa Joe]

Canada. Unlike the other sides, they don't seem to have any glaring weakness other than the fact they may not have chosen the best players they had available.

All of the other sides appear to have significant questions marks, especially in goal. If Sweden can get the goaltending they will be tough. The Russians will also be tough if they get their crap together.

Well vote and give your reasons why you feel that particular team has the best shot. The poll merely reflects who the favourites are. Obviously any of the teams, other than Germany, has a shot.

 

[MissCanuck]

Canada, the team looks solid at all positions.

 

[wilka91*]

Canada (or USA) because they play at home.

 

[Fish on The Sand]

Canada (or USA) because they play at home.

so do the czechs.

You mean who will win the Cup? There's no 3rd, 2nd nor 1st place at the World Cup right? Therefore there's no Gold medal.

Oh my bad-used to refering world hockey to gold,silver and bronze.

I picked USA in that one but Canada in this one. Looks like Canada is getting a bigger percentage here so I think it's as close as you're going to get to an unbiased poll.

 

[CH Wizard]

CANADA NO DOUBT !

 

[Took a pill in Sbisa]

Whoever voted for Germany is such a homer

 

[Canuck21t]

Well what I wrote was wrong too. Of course there's a 1st place. What was I thinking? This is the tournament where the all-or-nothing mentality apply to all.

The World Cup of soccer has 1st 2nd and 3rd places with there being a bronze medal game.

 

[n00dles]

Canada - They have it all.
With these awesome players on every position, a focus on team chemistry and their recent success they should be able to go all the way.
