No way!
Russia beat USA with special teams (on the power play), and that's a big reason why they're ahead of Sweden today too.
If Canada plays Russia, the Canadians will be the ones with possession drawing the penalties, and the Canadian PP is clicking at 46%.

Sweden's PP - 50%
Sweden's PK - 100%
Wow, so many moments for Russia
Russia usually plays mediocre against lesser hockey nations but they always bring their best against Canada. 0% chance Canada wins against Russia
Not against teams when it actually matters![]()
Now that was a pretty damn good save!
