Canada always juggles through the prelim rounds. The last 3 or 4 Olympics, the goalie who started the first game was either the back-up or in the press box for their last game.

I wouldn't really be all that confident in price or luongo. I'm very confident in quick and miller

Exactly.

Also, maybe leight, but Carter off the top line and late add St. Louis on the top line.

According to lineup, St-Louis with Crosby-Kunitz, Marleau with Toews-Nash, Duchene with Getzlaf-Perry. Carter with Tavares, Benn,Bergeron.

Think the following team would have any chance of medaling?

JvR Carter Voracek
Streit Sharp Jagr
Handzus Nedved Radivojevic
Raffl Thoreson Nodl

Hamhuis Timonen
Krajicek Meszaros
Bartulis Kukkonen
Vaananen Tollefsen

Bobrovsky
Kovar



- Tomahawk

Kovar would get lit up like Barney Gumble in Ireland


EDIT: I do LOVE that Branko Radivojevic is playing in these Olympics. I liked him.

The same happened when they had Luongo and Brodeur, Brodeur & Cujo...the Canadian trend is go thru prelims and ride the hot hand.

I hate their unis too

Canada shouldn't have taken Weber.

Raffl and Grabner seem to have some chemistry

Canada shouldn't have taken Weber.

Surprised they let him go on a plane with that rifle

Carter is not remotely slow. He is an excellent skater.
- MJL

then perhaps he is an unmotivated one. my opinion is comprised of more than just one game with team canada in which the whole team appeared disinterested that norway required them to try.

That red band on just the left arm was a big mistake. Like, "invading Russia in the winter" level mistake.
