Icehockey WC
Ooh boy, this match I would "love" to see, but I will be watching Finland opener vs the Czech at the same time...
Now the thing is that these two are in my books CLEAR top-3 candidates for the gold this year, together with Canada. Team USA announced their team, and what star team they have - basically 10+ guys from 1st or 2nd line from NHL including guys like Johnny Hockey Gaedreau, Boldy, Caufield, Kevin Hayes, Brady Tkachuk, Zegras, Brock Nelson in their offense... Defense is also full of offensive talent with guys like Luke Hughes, Werenski, Seth Jones. In goal will be Alex Lyon, and although I think he is solid goalie in NHL, I dont think he can stop the Swedes here from scoring.
Well well, Sweden is also full of "star power" this year. First I want to mention their D-mens - how does it sound when they have Erik Karlsson, Dahlin and Hedman in their D? Yes RIDICULOUS good for the fans, and ALL of those guys are offensive D-mens. Besides their offense is also a strong one with guys like Eriksson Ek, Raymond, Zetterlund, Olofsson, Adrian Kempe.... Soo strong team overall, especially when we think the offensive aspect. In goal I dont have too much trust for Gustavsson or Ersson although they are from NHL!
Play goals in this thrilling opener.
