WAS TOLD THAT THE IIHF WC LINES WOULD BE UP AT 5DIMES BY NOW, BUT ALAS THEY ARE NOT.  CURRENTLY, STILL BET365 IS THE ONLY SITE THAT HAS LINES, AND THEY JUST RELEASED THE OUTRIGHT LINES...

I've looked into the teams of each group and I was trying to pick out a winner from either side, but in the Stockholm Group it really seems like it could be Russia or Sweden. While in the Helsenki group it could be Canada or Finland. I just wish Canada had better goalies and then I would definitely pick them to be the points leader in their group. Canada's best goalie on the team is Cam Ward, but hey atleast they don't have Loungo on the team.... or even worse Fleury

Alfie gives Sweden a boost

Daniel Alfredsson gives the Swedish national team..

...the good news they need...

...after five straight exhibition game losses.

 The 39-year-old Ottawa Senators forward accepted...

...the invitation to the 2012 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship.

He gave GM Johan Garpenlöv the good news on Sunday evening.
