Call me negative, but I'll probably end cheering against teams with people I don't like rather than cheering for those which I do. After all, the Canadians have Stevie and Babs, the Americans have... American people... the Russians have Dats and Ovy, and the Red Wings.. er, Sweden.. have Nick, Z, Mule, etc.

On the other hand..

The Canadians winning with Crosby would be intolerable.

The Russians playing politics with all those crappy KHL players is annoying

The Americans, while Burke is going through a tough time, I don't want a medal added to his 'GM cred'

So I could see myself going for the Swedes, Finns, Czechs, or Slovaks

This is the big one for me. Go Sweden. Seriously...

American rooting for Russia. I've always liked Russian players, and their Olympic team gives me the same sort of butterflies-in-the-stomach holy-s***-they-are-talented sick feeling that our '02 Cup team gave me.

That said, in women's hockey, I'm USA all the way!

If I had to pick A team, it would be Russia. The Russian Five brought the whole hockey world so many thrills and innovations. They probably even brought a whole new work and play ethic to American and Canadian players. Yeah, I know - none of them will be there except Fedorov, but I feel I owe them the return favor. Least I can do.

i think it would be ideal for the Red Wings if Canada won, as Yzerman, Babs, and Kenny will have hockey world glory, as opposed to being shamed forever lol. i think this outweighs the "Crosby Hype" if Canada wins...
