Winter Olympics

How is the U.S. going to do in the olympics? Can the U.S. hockey team win the gold like they did 20 years ago in Lake Placid?

i agree with most of you in saying that the U.S. probable won't win gold. we have a great team, but it's going to be tough. and as far as canada goes, they are a powerhouse, and with mike babcock and stevie y involved they are going to be almost impossible to beat. (i'm from michigan, and a HUGE redwings fan.) and i agree that russia has a great team with datsuk and ovechkin, which are unbelievable two way players. but i'm suprised that sweden hasn't come up in the discussion yet, (that i saw). they have some great players on that team, like 8 time norris trophy winner and redwings captain, nick lidstrom, who is one of the, if not the best defensemen that plays the game. and lets not forget hank zetterberg, who could probably win the whole damn thing by himself.
i'm sorry this is a long post, i'm just a big hockey fan. i hope the U.S. does well, but odds are against us.
