With one match in the novels, Team Europe will now have to win two straight games to take the World Cup of Hockey — something Thomas Vanek, a forward on Europe, said could be“impossible“. Team Canada has yet to lose heading into Game 2 of their best-of-three string with Europe and will seem to shut the World Cup curtains Thursday night at the Air Canada Centre.

Carey Price is 4-0 with a .954 save percentage along with a 1.50 goals-against average in the World Cup.
Team Canada was true not good in Game 1 of their closing and if you listened to post-game interviews without looking at the score to begin with, you would have thought they’d lost based on how negatively the gamers spoke. They were more than good enough to get the job completed and came away with a 3-1 win. Canada outshot Europe 38-33 at the competition and the team that outshoots their competitor wins, as we have seen throughout this championship.
The traces have narrowed a little for this particular match but Team Canada remains a heavy favorite in BetOnline in which they’ve been tabbed with a moneyline of all -900. Europe had stretches of play Canada in Game 1 through which they looked after shooting down the defending Olympic gold medalists. Call me a broken record but, man, +550 is crazy worth for a baseball game where a goalie can acquire or lose a match based on what kind of day he’s having. Europe has played Canada demanding in their matchups up to now and has proved they can beat good teams.
I begged you to choose the +110 worth on Team Europe’s +2.5 puckline in Game 1 and if you didit paid well. Canada is once again a 2.5-goal favorite and I once again believe this game remains nearer than oddsmakers do — I’m predicting a 4-2 lead to favour of Team Canada.
