  While supernova remnants have been identified as the most likely sources of
the galactic cosmic rays, no conclusive observational evidence for this
association exists. We show here that IceCube has the possibility of producing
incontrovertible evidence by detecting neutrinos produced by the cosmic ray
beam interacting with the hydrogen in the vicinity of the supernova shock
expanding into the interstellar medium. We show that the observational
information on gamma ray fluxes from the Cygnus region, although limited, is
sufficient to pinpoint the expected event rate of the neutrinos associated with
a single source of 0.5 Crab at the TeV level to within a factor of two, between
2 and 3.8 neutrinos per year. Finally, we note that recent gamma-ray
observations reveal the presence of at least three and possibly up to eight
such sources, raising the possibility of seeing more than 10 neutrinos per year
from these sources alone.
