Gold: Finland

I like this Finnish team too much not to give it the gold. As for Canada, they will get through to the gold medal game. Russia will beat Sweden for the bronze. The Czech Republic and USA will finish 5th and 6th respectively. In the Relegation Round, Switzerland and Slovakia will occupy the top two spots. Germany will beat out Latvia, sending Latvia packing to Division I.

Group A
1 - Sweden
2 - Finland
3 - Switzerland
4 - Czech Republic
5 - Latvia
Group B
1 - Russia
2 - Canada
3 - USA
4 - Slovakia
5 - Germany
Gold: Finland
Silver: Canada
Bronze: Russia
Relegated: Germany
My idea of this years WJC is that Finland would take gold because they had a strong start in the exhibition games. Canada is going for silver, as much as they got decent talent like Nathan MacKinnon I don't think they would be as strong with the younger players that are new with the Canadian side. Bronze goes to Russia because it's Russia.
