It's a round robin. Everyone plays a few games to try and get home ice advantage, and then it goes straight into the playoffs.

Yes, go Slovakia.
Slovakia isnt a bad team, though, if I'm not mistaken. But I dont think they can stand against Canada.

I am not pleased. I hate our team, they dissappointed us. Idiots. Gah!
And as a Swedish person, I will not cheer for Finland. It just....isn't done. And not Canada either, because they beat us in the finals last time.
So this World Cup has been of very, very little interest to me.
