ROUND THREE MATCHUPSGAME 1
Czech Republic vs Russians No odds have been posted yet. I will post them when they become available
Going into the Olympics, the Russians were heavy favorites to win the Gold. The Czech Republic was ranked 5th, far behind the Russians. While the odds haven’t been posted yet, the Russians will be solid favorites in this one.
GAME 2
Canada vs. GermanyNo odds have been posted yet. I will post them when they become available
Going into the Olympics, Canada was the second ranked team, and it’s no surprise they made it to this game. Germany on the other hand was a long shot at best for the Gold. I’m sure Canada will be HUGE favorites in this game.
