Have I missed something? Why does everyone want the Slovaks to win?

Because Swedes have the Sisters (Vancouver Canucks), aint it obvious when you're on the Flames forum? =)

As much as I'd like to see the Sedins get another medal, I think Slovakia is a weaker team (note: not weak, weaker) for Canada to face, which is why I'm pulling for them. Also I'd rather face Halak than Lundqvist.

It would amuse me if Slovakia scores a goal like Belarus did on Salo.

Sweden looked great against Finland...Finland looked great against the Czech's...Slovakia may beat Sweden...Russia looked terrible, Canada now looks like the best team in the tourny....im confused...

But ya slovakia would be the better matchup...

Halak is gaining invaluable experience in this tournament.

Wow the Swedes go down easy.

That is the only concern I have with facing either of these two teams, the Swedes seem set on diving their way to success and in international hockey that tends to be a successful way to cheat.

Gaborik gets a roughing penalty?

Sounds like an oxymoron

They are my 2nd favorite team in the tournament. They have Visnovsky and I like Gaborik, Hossa and Chara. Also I think it would be a better matchup for Canada which is priority #1.
