Canada is still hands the favourite at slightly better than even money but with the format of this 2 week tournament (read here) it may be wiser to play the home town spoiler bets of Sweden or USA as well. Note Slovakia has gone from over 69:1 down to 44:1 and could be the darkhorse worth watching.
