The World Cup of Hockey

Are you pumped!!! Are you excited!!! Are you psyched!!! This is it -- after this there won't be hockey for a very long time. I can't wait. Even though I won't be able to see a single game on TV probably.

Will Canada, the favorite, win?
Will Sweden overcome their Bill-Buckner-esque play from the Olympics (good job Tommy Salo) and finally win with this, their best national team ever?
Will the aging US stars pull out one last international victory?
Will the gritty Finns score enough?
Will the Russians be able to come together in spite of the absence of many of their stars and questionable goaltending?
Will the Czech Republic elevate their game in the wake of the death of their national team coach, and childhood hero to many of the players, Ivan Hlinka?
Will the Slovaks defense and goaltending be good enough to allow their potent offense to win high-scoring games?
Will Germany win a game?

Do any of you care?
