Olympic predictions

Post by Frusciante »

I thought it'd be fun to see what some of you folks thought about the upcoming olympic tournament. I know we already have a thread about the olympic hockey, but it seemed to be more about womens hockey than the stuff that actually matters. :) No offense.

I have been able to see some projected line-ups, taken from the first day of training for some of the competing teams.

They'd be as follows:

Canada:

Chris Kunitz – Sidney Crosby – Jeff Carter
Patrick Sharp – Jonathan Toews – Rick Nash
Patrick Marleau – Ryan Getzlaf – Corey Perry
Jamie Benn – John Tavares – Patrice Bergeron
(Martin St. Louis, Matt Duchene)

Duncan Keith – Shea Weber
Jay Bouwmeester – Alex Pietrangelo
Marc-Edouard Vlasic – Drew Doughty
(P.K. Subban, Dan Hamhuis)

Russia:

Just got the forward line-up here, given that Datsyuk sits out the first game.

Ovechkin - Malkin - Semin.

Radulov - Svitov - Kovalchuk.

Kulemin - Anisimov - Tarasenko.

Popov - Tereschenko - Tikhonov.

Sweden:

Gabriel Landeskog - Henrik Zetterberg - Alexander Steen
Daniel Sedin - Nicklas Bäckström - Loui Eriksson
Gustav Nyquist - Patrik Berglund - Daniel Alfredsson
Carl Hagelin - Marcus Krüger - Jimmie Ericsson
(Marcus Johansson, Jakob Silfverberg)

Oliver Ekman-Larsson - Erik Karlsson
Niklas Kronwall - Jonathan Ericsson
Johnny Oduya - Niklas Hjalmarsson
(Henrik Tallinder, Alexander Edler)

Finland:

Just got the forwards here as well:

Mikael Granlund - Aleksander Barkov -Teemu Selänne
Lauri Korpikoski - Olli Jokinen - Tuomo Ruutu
Jussi Jokinen - Petri Kontiola - Juhamatti Aaltonen
Leo Komarov - Jarkko Immonen - Jori Lehterä


Would be interesting to see what you americans will place on the ice. Any news there?


My prediction:

1. Russia
2. Sweden
3. USA
