Good article.

You're right, that was a good one. I liked Parros' quotes

Canada
USA
Sweden

All 3 teams are deep top to bottom. Canada's biggest issue is goaltending.

Jeez... Karlsson, Kronwall, Ekkman-Larsson on defense. This team has got some ringers for sure

Steen too!! Killin it this year!

Big ice will favor the international players as well. Look for the U.S. and team Canada to struggle.

Plenty of guys from KHL who can step up...NHL players represent a very small fraction of Russian team
