The Swiss Olympic team isn't much of a threat compared to U.S.A, Canada, Sweden and Russia but they will still be able to create a very good team surrounded by their defensive group. They will have decent goaltending with Jonas Hiller in net but their weakest part of their team will be their offensive group. With two former 1st round picks, Nino Niederreiter (2009) and Sven Baertschi (2011), the offensive group for Switzerland is still young. If Hiller can keep the puck out of the net and they can chip in the odd goal, they might have a chance to surprise some teams.
