Canada (Nhl Selection) vs Finland (Nhl Selection) Prediction & Picks - 4 Nations Face-Off
by Stephen Abiola | in Hockey Picks
After squaring off against the United States on Saturday night, Team Canada will hit the ice on Monday evening to face Finland. Canada came into this tournament as one of the favorites, as they squeaked out a victory in overtime against Sweden in their opening match. Mitch Marner scored in extra time to give the Canadians 2 points after surrendering a 2-goal lead to the Swedes. Their struggles continued against a heated matchup against Team USA where they fell 3-1.
In their first assignment, Finland suffered a 6-1 humiliation against the US. They managed to stay a goal behind for most of the match before Team USA surged ahead in the third round to win convincingly. Finland came into this tournament with a weak defense after Miro Heiskanen was ruled out with a knee injury. This could seriously hurt them against the Canadians who boast Grade-A skills in attack. The Finns simply can't compete with the Canadians talent-wise.

Our Canada (Nhl Selection) vs Finland (Nhl Selection) Prediction
We expect Finland to employ the same cautious strategy they used against the United States. The Finns knew they didn't have the star power to match the US, which is the same in this case. Therefore, they resorted to playing off the Americans' offensive aggressiveness by using a counterattacking strategy. This almost worked when Zach Werenski made an interception to score the opener. However, Canada will be eager to blow the doors wide open in the first period and lock up the game. Players like Connor McDavid and Sidney Crosby could easily destroy the Finns if the underdogs play too defensively. The Canadians could get a big win here. Our prediction for Finland vs Canada: Canada to cover -2.5 handicap.
