Word: Borje 10. Written, 50 to 200+ words. What do they do different? We’ve seen Tampa Bay and San Francisco make the finals twice in a row and both 3 times in the last 5 seasons. What do they do differently that other teams should follow for better success in their future playoff runs? In successful organisations, everything starts from the top. The winning culture is created by the owner of the franchise. In this case, the biggest reason too is that the owner of the Pride is very good in his task. He knows how to handle the players, GM's, coaches, managers, scouting staff and employees. Of course, Pride has too some quality players like Logan Webb who was monster in the regular season. Dominik Winters is good center, Sydney Shaw can move the puck from the blue line, Levin Schattedxg or whatever his name is written can bring some secondary scoring, Viktor Hargreeves is a proven two-way centerman, Oskar Scholz is very talented Danish winger, Mercedes Bayle is as fast as the Mercedes-Benz Car and can burn defenses that way, Filip Svatos is skillful Czech winger, Lucas Raymond is a Swedish diamond and in the net Justin Time is almost as clutch as Mat Smith was once upon a time. So, the player material gives them a chance to succeed but of course you need to have too some solid coaching. Bruce Cassidy is one of the best in the world at his job. He can really organize team defences without losing too much offensive firepower. Words: 204 13. Written, 50 to 200+ words. Old Reliable IIHF Analysis Write your predictions for this year's IIHF tournament or WJC! Tell me about your team! What are your expectations for your player? What teams are you watching out for this time around? Did last season's results surprise you and how much do you expect them to change this time? Team Finland is always a medal contender. Last season it failed to win a gold medal. It was a disappointment. This time they can go all the way and not lose in the playoffs. There are some youths coming up and ready to take bigger role. So, I would like to guarantee that it will be a better hockey team this year but in sports in general everything can happen and puck luck has a huge role too so I can not do that. I can just promise that it will give themselves a chance to win and hockey gods will then decide afterwards if it really wins or not a medal. Carpet in the net gives it a chance to beat other powerhouses every year. It is up to skaters and coaches to perform well too. When it comes to other teams, I expect big powerhouses like Canada, USA and Sweden dominate the event too year after year. The hockey culture is so incredible deep in those countries so they should contend for medals every season. Simply no excuses. Teams like Ireland, Japan and UK should not celebrate at all in the international stage. Maybe Switzerland always improves from last seasons. So, those are my excellent predictions and preview for the upcoming tournament.
