I'll be on Sweden. They are always as talented as anybody, but now they have been spending more time together. Getting 5-1 with them is insane.

Well maybe this will be my first time BBD. But I dont need to have action on a game or event to enjoy it. When it comes time, we will see what the lines are set at, and go from there.

I have to go with my home country Finland with 1 unit. It's been a tradition for me to toss one unit on Finland winning the tournament every WC and olympic games.

Needless to say i haven't got lucky yet. Many 2nd places at world championships but no gold after 1995. Ofcourse olympics are better. Very entertaining to watch, as all the pro players are free to play here. Last time we lost to canada 2-1 in quarterfinals at Salt Lake City.

I will also take one other team with one unit to make it more exciting to watch. With these prizes i probably have to go with Sweden.

Yanks at +1233 for me, but I'm betting more with my heart than head, though it seems like a reasonable line.

Can't we find someone better than Rick DiPietro to start in net? The USA could legitimately score 10 goals in a game and still lose.
