Guest micah Report post Posted February 27, 2010 It's amazing how quickly people forget 2006, when the North American teams got smoked. I don't think anyone forgot that. I hope that everyone remembers that Olympic play includes 2 North American teams and 10 European teams. This year, the NA teams will take 1st and 2nd. Domination by the only two NA teams in the show.

VM1138 1,921 Report post Posted February 27, 2010 Exactly. Same with the WJ's. North American hockey is just a lot better. NA hockey also has a much larger talent pool to pull from. It has nothing to do with an inherent style of play being better. But when you have millions of extra talent to find excellent players, your teams are going to be considerably better.

They have more of a talent pool then the Americans do. Don't forget this article is strictly about the Russians. The Slovaks didn't play "Eurotrash" hockey.
