GDT: Group S • May 5 • Sweden 4, Czech Republic 1

[Hennessy]

I don't understand what he was arguing going to the box.

"I assumed it was legal to hug a guy and drag him to the ice!"

 

[Swipes]

it's true, but the main problem is offense. we can't make a play with 2-3 good passes.

Yes, you're 100% right. Our powerplay is awful as well.....they just seem like they can't think of anything/what they should do on the PP.....

EDIT: And we can't even score on a 3-1 counter-attack........

 

[Prntscrn]

Well as a norwegian im abit disapointed that he didnt play for the national team every year. Our national team struggled between 2000 - 2005 and Shampo didnt show much interest. So my favorite norwegians gotta be Thoresen. Thoresen has always been loyal to the national team. Even when he was in the NHL. Last year Thoresen declined but that was because he wanted to spend som time with his family. I understand that.

But as an expert i rly like Shampo and ofc he showed that even norwegians can make it in the nhl

They are both awesome

 

[Mara]

That was a horrible 3 on 1. Should've taken advantage of that, they won't probably get another in this game.

 

[joe89]

Late in the second with a 2-0 lead, you don't want Karlsson making that play. Risky.

 

[SpezDispenser]

How is Silfverberg doing?

 

[Kiefer]

When Grankvist gets excited his voice reminds me of one of the guys from "Galenskaparna"

 

[Lugaid]

At the last heavy shift there I had a major yelling session with my friend in front of the TV, when we got back to being silent, Granqvist was shouting something about Brynäs and Leksand, what the heck was that about?

 

[gretskidoo]

Järnkrok has the best scoring chance for the Czechs.

I don't understand what he was arguing going to the box.

"I assumed it was legal to hug a guy and drag him to the ice!"

The refs let them do it 1-2 times earlier without any penalty, so you can't blame him.

 

[ReginKarlssonLehner]

How is Silfverberg doing?

Unbelievable hockey sense. Had a couple chances to score. He scares and backs off the defenders when he's on. Seems to always make the right move.

 

[QnebO]

Karlsson tonights game reminds me somehow about Vatanen in national team few years ago. Lots of offensive talent but makes lots of mistakes

Excellent, nice to hear.

 

[Pentothal]

They are both awesome

Agreed.

Anyhow, that last powerplay was awesome. Love how mobile we seem.

Joel Lundqvist having an impressive game for sure.

 

[Oyabun]

Personally, I don't think it's about that. I mean when it comes to WJC and OG it's a different story. Imo they should change the WC, best player from each country should be able to play. But agree, that's how we are raised and it's weird

I think its almost the same story at RÃ¥sunda with the football NT but fair enough


Good game and I agree with you guys praising Lundqvist

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Landeskog must step up!

 

[Nordic*]

What the ****. That door did open last game between Latvia and Russia too. Fix it before anyone gets hurt..

The WC:s this year is a big embarrassment for Sweden with the prizes and this **** happening for the second time today - something that can potentially be extremely dangerous.

Late in the second with a 2-0 lead, you don't want Karlsson making that play. Risky.

Exactly, he needs to alternate his game and not always make the high risk play. Make them 25% of the time and the other team has a harder time reading what's going to happen.

Secind period weas better though. For Karlsson, not Sweden...how many shots did we manage, like 7?

 

[Jim Morrison]

I gotta say that I really like the banter between Wikegård and Jihde

I know most of you don't like them though, but I think they're great

 

[Judrix]

Kruger is just dominating physically out there right? I mean the guy is a wrecking ball right?

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

great job fasth

 

[PatrickEaves]

great job fasth

I have no idea who he was trying to pass to there.

 

[QnebO]

NHL 12 style goal, goalie passing the opponent

 

[joe89]

Lol. Well better now than later.

 

[TollefsenFan]

Sad or tråkigt

 

[SurMartin]

"Let's all have a three second applause for Lundqvist! "

Ah, there's the Victor I know!

 

[Mara]

I have no idea who he was trying to pass to there.

He didn't seem to know either, he neatly passed right between the Swede players.
