2010 Winter Olympics - Men's Ice Hockey Pre-Lims

Tuesday, Feb 16th 2010:
  • USA def. SUI 3-1
  • CAN def. NOR 8-0
  • RUS def. LTV 8-2

USA played well enough to win over an underrated Swiss team. It's pretty evident that the US team lacks some firepower up front and will have to grind out games in order to make a run. 

Canada is an offensive juggernaut and poised to take a run for the gold. Everywhere you look on their roster you see an excellent player. Wait till they get to practice more...

Russia seriously outplayed an overmatched Latvian team. If their defense, a point of weakness for the Men in Red, can hold up and play solid, look for Russia to be in it till the end.
