[Karl Eriksson]

Does anyone have any pictures of the Swedish venue(s)?

 

[meepster]

Dimensions? International or NHL / North American?

 

[Genuflexion]

Hope these Swedish fans are ready for some intense shootout action

 

[playasRus]

Why is it sooooo long until we see Doucheeeee

Wonder who Swedish fans are cheering for. We've got Karl and Claesson, they've got Lando and Nemeth.

Is it going to be big ice?

 

[johan f]

I think the crowd will be cheering for the game itself, no particular team. Landeskog is from Stockholm while Erik is the most known player. Biggest ovation I think Forsberg gets as he certainly is going be part of ceremonial drop puck or something.

They will play on NHL-sized rink since it is an official leage game. With refs and other officials flewn in from north america. Paid thru insanely expensive game tickets.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

"How to make sure no one watches your team for two weeks, by the Ottawa Senators, in association with the NHL"

I mean, two games in 15 days, squeezed in two days on a back-to-back, AND played early afternoon(one being a work day)? Wow........

GET HYPE.



I'm sorry, I couldn't resist. This scheduling + travel at the beginning of the season is just complete BS.

You forgot about the real reason Swedish fans will cheer for the Sens: Johnny muthaf*****g Oduya.

Apparently rumor is Alfie and Forsberg will dress and take the warms ups with respected clubs.

Oduya is a god for sure but he still doesn't come close to Carl Söderberg on the Avs.

Sadly for me, reasonable tickets was gone in minutes. 250 € is too much for me, considering I must add ship tickets and night or two in a hotel.
I would watch games on tv with exact same face as my avatar. Its so close

Now where did you hear this? Alfie is not part of the SENS org. anymore.

Garrioch mentioned it was a possibility.

When did Karlsson ever play vs Ottawa??

The year he was drafted, when he was still playing with Frolunda.

2008 season.

Alfie is going to burst out of a giant Ikea meatball

 

[topshelf15]

Need both games here,COL is even weaker now.These are the games we cant afford to give up points

 

[danielpalfredsson]

I know this is gonna sound like BS, but I have an inside source in Sweden, and it looks like Dorion is making another trade call, maybe we're gonna get that forward we're after. He snapped a pic of Dorion doing it so I'll see if I can upload.

Buckle up.

Figured out how to upload, here's the pic.

As long as they cooked the meatball before Alfie got inside it, I'm ok with that scenario.

The guy on the left is realizing that he has to eat it.

What does that have to do with anything? It's a game in Sweden, between Ottawa and Colorado, both of whom have Alfie and Forsberg as the faces of the franchise's and a huge part of Swedish Hockey.
