Maybe it's strong national pride or a major case of wishful thinking, but there was no doubt among Hound Central 5.0 readers about what nation will stand atop the podium with gold medals in mens hockey -- Canada.
Really, it's easy to see why. Team Canada fields a very strong squad. Lots of talent and, as always, stellar goaltending. To win, though, it'll have to go through Russia, Sweden and Team U.S.A., which won't be easy.
Imagine the pressure, though, of not winning gold in your home country. That's why, I believe, Team Canada has to play desperate hockey. Anything less than a gold medal will likely demoralize a nation.
Question: Hockey gold in Vancouver?
Canada: 31 votes out of 51 cast (60.8 percent)

Czech Republic: 2 votes (3.9 percent)
Finland: 1 vote (2 percent)
