Canada is a much more skilled team. We could bring a bunch of guys like the US players if we wanted. That's actually what Canada has done a ton of in recent years, picked a ton of size/hitters instead of skill. Also pounding the likes of Germany/Norway really isn't that impressive and a bit of a jerk move. You're going to beat them easily, no need to physically pound them into the ground. Save that for the teams that matter.
The non-televised Switzerland/Sweden game is a bit of a barn burner early - 3-2 Sweden after one.
