I'll get shot for this but the answer is no.

Good question.

Probably not with our luck.

This one is a hard one to predict. I wouldn't say Scotland is better than Canada. They are probably about the same level. Both have a few players seeing regular time in Europe's top leagues, and many role players playing in the lower divisions of England, or less heralded leagues.

True. However Scotland will be playing at home while the Canadian team NEVER plays at home (unless it's WCQ).

The game will definitely be on TV.

And we will break them, so tell'em to watch themselves.

It's not listed on Sportsnet... what might it be on?

If it's going to be on it will be on Sportsnet. But I guess they haven't made a decision yet.

The Scottish forwards don't scare me much and they will be playing a few days after a big ECQ game. Their defence is strong, but as long as we don't get over-run in the midfield I don't see us being dominated.

If we can generate some chances on a fairly decent defence I think we'll pot one and that should be enough to win. I'm prediciting a tie (possibly 0-0), but until we see the squads I wouldn't put any stock in predictions.

What I really want to see is McKenna-Menezes-Devos as a back three. If they can't handle a strikeforce like Kyle/Thompson or Kyle/McCann or whatever they end up going with I think we'll need to look at other options. If that trio is fast enough to deal with most teams I think it's out ideal starting three. If not I think we have to start looking at a 4-4-2.
