Who do you think will win the Olympic gold medal in Men's Hockey? For bonus points, comment who will be in the final with them. |

As far as I know silver is the best the German's have ever done in Olympic hockey. I wonder if the Russian's drug tests have come back yet - Germany may yet end up with the Gold by default!
Did you hear about the retired proctologist? He spent 40 years saying "what's a place like this doing in a girl like you?" |

Notice I didn't even put an "Other" option in the list because there was "no possible way any other team could win1" Oh man! |

Absolutely! So I created this pool, and it is perhaps my personal worst call in NHL hockey (Well maybe the Golden Knights not making the playoffs is a little worse lol!)

Germany? What the heck? And they deserved to be there too. Well done. Just didn't see that coming.
And so I suppose the answer to my post is Germany is the surprise sleeper in these games.

Canada with a QF win over the Finns, will now play Germany in the semi-final. massive upset win over the Swedes! |

been pretty solid so far with their only blemish being a SO loss to the Czech's. tough test ahead in the QF though when they play the Finns. with the winner more than likely playing Sweden.
in recent history I believe the Finns have been the most consistent as far as making the podium goes. may not have won gold, but I think only once (maybe twice?) since Nagano have they not medaled. of course that was with NHL players, but nonetheless. Canada will need their A game for sure. |

I absolutely love the Winter Olympics, I can’t wait for them every 4 years. This year has been no different. I’m like a zombie these days, up way too late watching them and then up early in the morning as well. I just can’t get into the mens hockey tournament like past years though. I really miss seeing the absolute best players representing each country. I’ve followed Canada’s games so far, but haven’t actually watched them. I watched speed skating and ski cross the past couple mornings instead. Hoping I’ll get more into the hockey once Canada (hopefullly) gets to the semis. |

I'll tell you this is a more difficult pick this year without the NHL participating. If NHL players were involved there are the usual suspects. I put up a post a week or so ago asking if anyone expected there to be any surprise sleepers. Turned out no one really had any idea and neither do I.
