Gustafsson and Markov the deserved players of the game.

 

[Garyboy]

Congratulations to Sweden. Full credit for the win. They were the best team. Very worthy champions.

 

[AVSfan2daMAX]

Best team won, simple as that. So glad to see Sweden win. Very deserving and it's been a very long wait for them. Enjoy it, see you next year.

 

[RussianShark]

What the **** was that Russia? Anyways congrats Sweden you really hustled hard the whole tourney and deserved it. To a good Juniors next year!

 

[PBandJ]

Congrats to the Swedes.

Awesome game!

 

[TonsofPuppies*]

So glad Russia lost. Would have been a travesty to see them luck their way to a win in this game, after they did that last game against the Canadians. Congrats Sweden, you deserved it!

 

[Muh]

Awesome to see the crowd acknowledge the Russian goalie.

 

[KRM]

I can't believe we won.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Haha, Friberg is a midget compared to Klefbom and Brodin.

 

[Diatidialga]

I think Russia got overly confident beating Canada and it ended up costing them

 

[Clyde Donovan]

Damn, boo a kid who just lost just because he dumped on your team.

 

[Densin219]

I like sweden's style a lot. Forwards are backchecking and forechecking like crazy. That's why Russia is always pushed back into their own zone. Sweden's D also jump into offense at the right time. They deserve the win.

 

[Toasty95]

Cmon Calgary no need to boo Kunetzov, the kid is already sad enough. Jeez I feel bad for the guy.

 

[espo*]

Is that a tear in your eye Kuzzy old boy?

 

[PhiladelphiaKessel]

Why are people getting on the Canadian crowd for cheering for Sweden? Russia beat Canada so ya were going to cheer Sweden. PLus Sweden deserved it. The crowd provided an electric atmosphere, would it have been better if they were dead quiet? didnt think so

 

[Systemfel]

What a move by Zibby, just unbelieveable. So clutch.

Can't believe it's the 92s that win it in the end.

 

[vippe]

Glad Zibanejad scored the gamewinner.. he was the best swedish forward today. Klefbom has been simply fantastic the last few games aswell.

 

[Dares]

whos #7 for Russia?

 

[AwesomePanthers]

The refs were excellent in the final, kudos..

 

[KRM]

lmao I thought they called Friberg the ugly duckling, but they referred to the age group.

 

[Polansky]

I think Russia got overly confident beating Canada and it ended up costing them

Everyone saw Kuznetsov's quote. The Russians don't care if they win gold, all they want to do is beat Canada. Must be nice to aspire to be a loser.

 

[vsk92]

finland should get a medal since Zibanejad is half finnish

congrats to sweden though

Damn, boo a kid who just lost just because he dumped on your team.

Coming from someone from Philly?

 

[Frank the Tank]

Love seeing Canadians showing "class" again when their team isn't good enough.

As for the game, one of the better games I've seen. Congrats to both teams.

You would have them sit on their hands all game? The fans are going to pick a side and cheer. That is what watching sports is about.
