Who's gonna win it all? Obviously Canada is the favorite, but Slovakia, Russia & Czech Republic are close 2nds. How's the US gonna do? Right now they are in a helluva game w/ Latvia <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :x --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/sick.gif ALT=":x"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br>What's everyone's thoughts?<br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/glasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>Elk River AA State Champions- 2001 Boys & 2004 Girls</p><i></i>

I agree with blue breeze completely with the medalling<br><br>and about a canadian sweep...I could never live it down with my family in Canadia... <p></p><i></i>

They have looked a lot better in the first two periods against Kazakhstan. Only 3-0 but play is being dominated. Hopefully they can pull an upset in one of the final 3 games against Slovakia, Russia, and Sweden.<br><br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://p100.ezboard.com/bmnhs.showUserP ... @mnhs>Blue Breeze</A> at: 2/17/06 1:35 pm<br></i>

They should be able to beat Sweden especially when they are without Forsberg & Naslund.<br><br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START 8) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/glasses.gif ALT="8)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>Elk River AA State Champions- 2001 Boys & 2004 Girls</p><i></i>

They couldn't take down shorthanded Sweden, but they have at least looked better in the past 2 games. It's almost certain they will advance, so hopefully they figure out their goal scoring problems before then. Canada is all of a sudden very beatable after the loss to the Swiss and a 2-0 deficit to Finland after 2. <p></p><i></i>
