One of the best 2 or 3 hockey tournaments of the year kicks off On Dec. 26th in Malmo, Sweden. Team USA tries to defend its gold medal from last year when goalie John Gibson, D Seth Jones, and F Jon Grimaldi played huge roles.
This year's team is again stacked and in group A with Canada, the Czechs, Slovakia, and Germany. Group B has Russia, Sweden, Switzerland, Finland, and upstart Norway.
The top 4 of USA, Canada, Russia, and Sweden is pretty well established and a cut above.
Official website is linked and there will be cable TV coverage of some games, which I'll post as I find them. This is a great tournament with end-to-end action and the NHL stars of tomorrow.
