My Prediction for USA Canada hockey (cause dick loves it when I predict things).

Canada wins 3 to 2 in OT.

Yes, they go to a shootout after one OT.

If it goes to a shoot out, I don't see how Canada doesn't win. Should be a good one. I'm buying into the "too much pressure" scenario for Canada. This USA team is loose and playing very well as a team. I absolutely love the line of Kane / Kessler / Brown. Especially, Dustin Brown. On top of scoring, he does all the small things that win games. They're gonna hafta tighten it up on defense to prove my prediction. I'm taking the States in a 5-2 victory.

Either way, a Penguin comes home with a gold and a silver. Orpik or Crosby & Fluery

Patrick Kane has been insane, and so has Brian Rafalski. The US team was way more stacked than anyone was giving them credit for.

I forget the stat on Rafalski. Its something like, in 750 career NHL games he has 4 multi goal games. And then during the round robin he had two two-goal games in a row. Thats impressive for any blue liner.

Fun stat of the 1st intermission: Brian Rafalski has played 750 NHL games and had 4 multi-goal games. He has back-to-back 2 goal games in the Olympics with his 2 in the first tonight.


Damn, I remembered that right on the money.

I'm going to predict that whichever team scores the first goal will go on to win. Getting off to a good start is so important to both teams.

I predict which team has the most points at the end of the third period will win. Wink

Wink And I predict it's going to be Canada. They won't be surprised by anything the U.S. does this time, and that home crowd is going to be a big boost.
