Wasn't Slovakia expected to contend for at least a bronze?

Re: The Official Olympic Hockey Thread
I assumed all of the top 7/8 teams not Canada and US were competing for the bronze. Once they were put on the same side of the Bracket, I assumed all of those teams were competing for Silver.

Just because you are playing (competing) for something doesn't mean you have a realistic shot (contending) at winning it.Idoit40fans wrote:Ok then replace every compete in my post with contend. They are equivalent to me.

Re: The Official Olympic Hockey Thread
Do we know if th semi-final times are set? I.e., do we know if a would-be USA-Canada game is at 6 or 11? Or is that decision still pending?
