Olympic Hockey Gold (and Silver and Bronze) Odds

People were betting on four outcomes yesterday: 1) USA over Switzerland handily; 2) Canada to beat Russia in a tight game; 3) Czechs over Finland in a tight game; and 4) Sweden over Slovakia.  The pre-game odds:

2) A Canadian blowout of the Russians

3) The Finns squeaking by the Czechs

4) The Slovaks upsetting the Swedes
