Even if he's not 100% he certainly is showing bigtime potential. Some team is about to be rewarded mightily for a horrible season or well timed trade which netted them another teams 1st rounder. He looks fantastic to me, though tougher tests await.

Can't take the Slovaks lightly! Hopefully Kadri steps it up even more, from here on out.

I'd first and foremost reunite the Spitfires.
I'd keep the Schenn line and Cormier line together because they have been pretty good thus far.
I'd put Kadri with Della Rovere and Caron. All three are physical but also offensive. You'd have a very dynamic 3rd line.

For the poll: depends if Canada can play a structured game or not. They got very sloppy later on in the first two games and made mistakes teams other than Latvia or Switzerland will take advantage of.

You can pull for the Canada win and for Slovakia to let in 5-6 goals only, that´s the best we can hope for in this game and well maybe scoring one or two.

Sounds like a plan.
...Athough the Slovaks looked really physical against the USA so maybe the can rough em up a bit too.

I´m starting to get afraid that the playing like a bunch of 5´10" Dion Phenauf´s will only cause us further inuries.

I thought most of the team was at or just over 6 feet?

This game is going to be uglier than the Swiss game in my opinion. The Swiss at least had solid defence.
