In the last few years often one or mulitple of the NHL stars were not on their highest level for whatever reason. And line chemistry of the top line was also often subobtimal as well. Those issues doesnt seem to be present this year. But there are still question marks. Like that almost all of the offense comes from the NHL guys. And then I am also not sure if goaltending will hold up against teams with actual snipers on the roster. Such as Canada, Sweden and the US.There are a few differences to last year. Josi is here, Hischier isn't battling a jetlag and Fiala is on fire. Switzerland is a contender but yeah, every game after the round robin starts with 0:0 and every opponent is at least capable of doing the same.
Swiss are just dominating hardDenmark is falling apart.
