Have to go with the Red Wings.\n\nThe previous post mentioned their age as a factor, however the Red Wings are much younger this year then in previous years.  A lot of their production is coming from those younger members.  (Zetterberg, Dutsyuk, Samuelsson, and Williams are amoung thier top scorers.)\n\nTheir older players (Shanahan, Lidstrom, and Schneider) add leaderhsip and are preforming great.\n\nOsgood is handling the Goalie duties very well.  \n\nFinally, the seem to have a coach in Mike Babcock that the older guys respect and the younger are learning from.\n\nHard to beat that combination. \n\nIt's a long season and lots of things could change after the olympics.  Watch for key injuries at that time that will change the future for several teams.

THE BEST ICE HOCKEY PLAYER RIGHT NOW HAS TO BE JAROMIR JAGR. BUT WATCH OUT FOR ALEXANDER OVECHKIN AND SID 'THE KID' CROSBY.JAROMIR HAS FOUND HIS PASSION FOR THE GAME AGAIN. HE'S INSPIRED TO PLAY EVERY NIGHT AS OPPOSED TO TAKING GAMES OFF EVERY NOW AND THEN LOKE HE DID IN THE PAST. LET'S HOPE HIS SHOULDER INJURY DOES NOT PROVE TO BE A HINDERANCE IN THE FUTURE.

Kahn is quite good but getting older He is now Germany's no. 2 keeper for the World Cup (this is somewhat controversial). Hildebrandt is also quite good but will likely be Germnay's no. 3 in the World Cup (since Arsenal's Lehmann is the new no. 1, but Arsenal is an English team). One should also consider my favorite, the American no. 1 keeper Kasey Keller of Borussia Moenchengladbach. He likely saved 'Gladbach from relegation last season and has contributed highly to their better play this season. He has been selectet to the 11 of the Week by Kicker a number of times as well as the player of the game (including this past week).

the best goalie is Patrick Roy which he is retired from the Avalanche. and the next goalie is David Aebischer which the manager just had to trade him to canadian montreal for this guy name theodore.. so the goalie now is Peter Budaj.. which he is really nice b/c i met him once.. ok anyways the best captain is Joe Sakic from the Avalanche also.. and the best rookie is Marek Svatos but he just got injured and is out for the season.. ok sorry for talking too much.

Soccer teams if you refereed as Clubs are the follow according from 2005 to 2006, not including historical issues or old cups):\n\nSpain: Barcelona, Real Madrid, Villareal.\n\nEngland: Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester.\n\nItaly: AC Milan, Juventus, Inter de Milan.\n\nNetherlands: PSV Eidenhoven, Ajax.\n\nGermany: Bayern Munich, Shakle 04, Bayern Leverkusen.\n\nTurkey: Galastasaray.\n\nFrance: Monaco, Paris Saint Germain, Lyon.\n\nBrazil: Corinthians.\n\nArgentina: River Plate, Boca Juniors.\n\nMexico: Chivas, America.\n\nOther teams to consider: Junior (Colombia), Nacional (Ecuador), Atletico Madrid (Spain), Benfica (Portugal), Celtic (Scotland), Asuncion (Paraguay), Dynamo Kyiev (Ukraine), Sparatak Moscu (Russia).\n\nThe best player for chivas would be Omar Bravo who is forward and made two goals to Iran in this world cup, some other critizice him, but well that is my opinion.\n\nAlso defendr Franciso Rodrigues would be a good option, he is good and born in Mexico, wich for me counts more than a player born in another country.

The definitive favorite for the World Cup is Brazil with the world's best offense featuring a wealth of forward talent--Ronaldo, Adriano, and Robinho--along with a spread of midfielders--including the world's current football king Ronaldinho--equal to England's. It doesn't hurt to have a fantastic keeper in Dida and defenders like Roberto Carlos and Lucio to fall back on if and when the goals dry up. Look for Team "Brasil" to win a second straight World Cup and a record sixth in their rich football history.
