I know you like Pettersson but from what I've seen today he has been quite weak on the boards. Invisible otherwise.Yeah benched by kempe who hasnt been doing anything either.
I guess thats the end of pettersson this whc. Dissappointing.
Has made a lot of crisp passes. You think kempe has been good?I know you like Pettersson but from what I've seen today he has been quite weak on the boards. Invisible otherwise.
It's the end of a close game and Pettersson isn't winning any board battles, why would the coach want him out there when they aren't looking for offense? It's not the end of him at the tourney lol c'mon. You did the same thing in the pre-tourney threads. Just stop.Yeah benched by kempe who hasnt been doing anything either.

Sure, that is fine if reffing was politics. But it isn't. Call a penalty a penalty and don't call crap that isn't even a penalty in women's hockey, or Czechs flopping around like it's a Hollywood audition.IIHF - Gamecenter 2018 IIHF ICE HOCKEY WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP DENMARK
I had to luck, I thought I was maybe watching a different game... penalties are 6 to 6 after 2nd period and, I'm pretty sure, 10 to 10 now. What is the all the complaining about the refs not liking Sweden? Your team is up 3-1 and equal in penalties?
Actually if we’re being totally fair Backlund hasn’t really been pulling his weight but you know he’s 29 and the captain so we can’t hold him accountable.Cant complain too much, he has been a bit lightweight. Not bad, but a bit weak at the boards.

Has been for years. I don't know if it's NHL players not being used to IIHF rules, or IIHF linesmen having some weird powertrip.The faceoffs are a joke

When a team is having possession and pressuring the opponents, they're usually rewarded. Not the case, but Swedish fans are very used to that.
Not only that but sweden only get 2 PPs a game while a billion boxplays. How many years had it been like this?Has been for years. I don't know if it's NHL players not being used to IIHF rules, or IIHF linesmen having some weird powertrip.
Not only that but pääjärvi who almost cost us the game gets to play while our talents get to sit.2 goals lead in the 3rd
Shortened the bench for defence
Gets scored on
What else is new?

Then you know which team got the short end of the stick from the refs.I think I watched a different game. It is funny, to me, to hear so much complaing in a game you guys never trailed in and won to remain undefeated in tourney that you are the defending champions in.
You can have Wikstrand can we have someone who actually doesn’t coordinate the players like an imbecill?For the Record, the Czechs will gladly take your 8th best to 14th best Dmen... our program could desparately use them... actually, your 15th to 20th would also improve us.

Pettersson has been terrible so far this tourney. His skill is apparent but he definitely looks like a boy among men.I know you like Pettersson but from what I've seen today he has been quite weak on the boards. Invisible otherwise.
I have no idea what you mean?Then you know which team got the short end of the stick from the refs.
We'll take him too!Pettersson has been terrible so far this tourney. His skill is apparent but he definitely looks like a boy among men.
