Guess nobody else is betting it.
Saturday games:
Slovakia -2.5 @ -138 to win 3 units
My darkhorse pick to win the tourny, they have plenty of offensive talent and get a weak team to pick off in this first game. They have solid tending and should shut out this bad Norwegian squad. Gaborik might pot 3 himself in this game.
Sweden - 3.5 @ -143 to win 1 unit
Asking for a lot of goals but this isn't much of a italian squad. I expect the Swedes who are short on talent this year to play a solid team game. If any of todays scores are any indications even the lesser talented versions from the traditional hockey powers are laying the wood to these bad teams.
Canada - 3 @ + 104 x 1 unit
A lot is being made about the no shows for Canada but they still have a very solid defensive corps and some decent talent up front. I don't think they'll struggle here at all, I'm expecting them to roll actually. Murray will make sure they play solid team hockey from the net on out. I'm expecting a shutout with the style Canada will most likely employ. 5-0 type of game.
