Finland-Sweden Olympic Clash Predictions
Finland and Sweden square off in a Group B bloodbath that reeks of Nordic rivalry, with the Leijonat desperate to shake off their shocking opener loss to Slovakia. Sweden's Tre Kronor roll in as medal favorites, boasting a head-to-head edge and depth that Finland sorely misses without captain Aleksander Barkov anchoring the middle. Front offices back home watch every shift, knowing these results could ripple into NHL trade talks and roster tweaks before the spring push.
