I thought that the US and Russia were the favorites?

Yep, USA are heavy favourites.

USA vs Czechs for the Gold Medal game.

 

[hameenlinna]

Finland.

- Great goaltending (Rask, Rämö, it doesn't matter which one starts)
- Good offense (Korpikoski, Tukonen, Lindgren, Wirtanen, Sailio, Seitsonen, Lehtonen)
and I think we will see some
- Defensemen (Laakso, Korhonen, Jokinen)
elevating their game to championship level.

We haven't had a team this strong since 2002 in Nova Scotia.

Let's go boys

The US is going to win this tournament. They have overwhelming talent.

Keep an eye on the Czechs though.

Homer picks----ahoy!!!

That's really all that can be said right now. You really have to see how each is doing in the pre-tournament games through the first game or two of the tournament to really predict.

That being said, U.S. looks strong, Finland looks strong, Canada's always good.
the czech's are interesting to me----they could take a run or fall like a stone. If Malkin plays then you just can't count Russia out. He'd be the top player in the tourney or at least he should be.
