I like the way their team is built.

I think they will be hard pressed to get into the gold medal game.
They played well in Vancouver, but Miller played out of his mind - it is hard to imagine that they will be the team with the hot goalie two tournaments in a row.
Also, Russia shat the bed in Vancouver - I highly doubt that happens in Sochi. Sweden will also be better on the big ice than they were in Van.
The US simply doesn't have the depth. IMO, they are the fourth best team this year.
