Olympic Predictions 2/18/10

Canada 6 - Switzerland 1
The offensive fire power of Canada can exceed 6 goals against an inferior Swiss team but Hiller has the tools to keep it close early, look for Canada to break the score open late.

US 5 - Norway 0
The Americans are not likely to steam roll any opponents in this tournament but with great goaltending, solid top two forward combos, and a punishing blue line do not be surprised to see this team medal.

Russia over Slovakia
Peter Bondra would tell you Slovakia but Peter Blogdra disagrees.
Between the two creators of this blog there is no consensus on the final score. One of us is reasoning that games on back to back nights coupled with a lesser level of talent should yield a lopsided win for the Russians. The other is under the impression that a healthy Slovakian team is as dangerous as any in this tournament. Nonetheless the Russians should win so long as they do not treat this as a mens league game like they did against Latvia.
