It’s hard to believe with the playoffs going on that we will have more Team Canada Hockey coming up! The 16 team tournament begins on May 7th and goes all the way until May 23rd. The following are a list of the pools:
Pool A: Russia, Belarus, Slovakia, Kazakhstan
Pool B: Canada, Switzerland, Latvia, Italy
Pool C: Sweden, Czech Republic, Norway, France
Pool D: Finland, USA, Germany, Denmark
I think it is safe to say that Canada should win their group! The Team Canada brass released their roster recently and one of the biggest things that jumps out at you is the youth involved in this years team. Personally I think it is a great idea as we will hopefully see many of these players play for Canada in future Olympics (should the NHL allow their players to continue participation).
