No we can beat Russia. Canada wont even get a medal this year. Looks like they have to play Russia and Ovechkin > Crysby. Canada's hockey team is a disappointment this year. But with Miller in net we wont lose.

LUUUUUU gonna be on fire. We can beat Russia. We massively outplayed the US but Miller is OP. The Canada Russia game is gonna be real close. But don't count us out yet. That game is gonna come down to defense and goaltending. You cant say Canada lacks Firepower when every game has been over 40 shots.

As, far as Ovechkin > crosby I would say it is more like Ovechkin=Crosby. They are the two best players in the world and have been within a few points of each other every year. As far as crysby, he is not a wimp anymore. His first season he was but the past 2 seasons he has stepped up his physical play and i havent seen a dive out of him since his rookie year. He also doesnt dish out questionable hits left and right and you wont see him knee-on-knee anyone like ovechkin.

it will be a good match for sure.

Both teams has a gritty play style. If Finland is able to put pressure on USA´s defence then Miller will have a tough nigth,but if USA can control the center and keep their calm then its pretty much gg for Finland.

Can go either way really

Edit: 3-0 after 10 mins...

gg

gogo Canada!
