Four years after returning home empty handed without any medal, the Canadian men's Olympic hockey team is out for a bit of redemption. The Canadians are usually favored in every international hockey event and this is no exception. But the Canadians are expected to get some serious competition from Russia, with Sweden and the U.S. in close proximity.
Games begin on February 16 and will continue through the end of the month, with the gold medal game slated for February 28.
