Speculation: Off-Season 2018

[drwpreds]

Yeah, Forsberg scored with a patented Arvy jump screen.

And Arvy had an incredible redirect of an Ekholm pass.

If anyone hasn't seen the Arvy goal, you need to go find it- absolutely incredible....

I'm glad they're doing well in the tournament, gets that confidence up again after the playoff disappointment.

 

[King Weber]

Arvi with 2 goals in a 6-0 victory over the US. Forsberg with an assist on the 1st goal.

 

[PredsV82]

Would love to see Switzerland beat Canada but I know its unlikely

 

[FilthyScoresberg]

Is it just me, or is Arvi almost just as valuable as Forsberg? Obvi Forsberg is the most valuable, but Arvi has really turned into a consistent threat.

It's a fair question. It's easy to think that Arvy has already kinda peaked in terms of his production but he keeps doing it. Forsberg just has that element of maybe being a point per game caliber player whereas I don't think Arvy will ever get there, or be thought of in that way.

3-1 Switzerland with 12 minutes to go..

 

[PredsV82]

3-1 Switzerland with 12 minutes to go..

Heck yeah! Everybody loves a USA vs Canada matchup... for Bronze!!

And there it is. Get stoked.

(I kinda am)

 

[PredsV82]

I can handle a Sweden win driven largely by Forsberg Arvidsson and Ekholm... cant be anything but good for them... same thing for Fiala with the Swiss. (And Josi but he should be experienced enough by now)

 

[King Weber]

USA beat Canada 4-1 to win the bronze medal. Bonino with the go ahead goal late in the 3rd.

 

[WartracePred]

This Swiss - Sweden game is awesome. Preds fans win either way. Arvi, Forsberg, Ekholm, and throw in Horny against Josi and Fifi. Good stuff. Fiala and Ekholm both in the box for cross checking each other. Does that carryover to training camp??

Yes. They're going to kill each other the first chance they get

 

[Armourboy]

I'm going to bet there is going to be some seriously heavy laughing going on about that one if they weren't already.

 

[PredsV82]

Overtime.... josi had back to back penalties in the middle of the third... like he was out of the box for 4 seconds and got whistled again...

and fiala has an open net in slot. shoots into the goalie. at least they are consistent.. shaking my head.

forsberg, arvy, and ekholm look good. i think forsberg is a point per game player for a full season next year.

We need Joey to be Playoff Joey all year and that could be a damn 200 point line...

 

[NoNecksCurse]

hate to see it end in a shootout. ruins the game for me.

 

[NoNecksCurse]

I think joey breaks out of sorts in the regular season too. im excited for that line. hopefully the playoffs showed we should never play around with that line. teams have to gameplan for them and still can't stop them.

 

[NoNecksCurse]

im predicting the swiss win in a shootout after sweden dominated the game/OT. fiala w/ game winner in shootout.

 

[NoNecksCurse]

forsberg with the shootout winning gold medal goal. go filip! you are the man in nashville and at worlds! we are lucky to have you.

 

[PredsV82]

I didnt realize it was a 5 shooter shootout so when Sweden's third shooter had come and gone and there was no FF I was like WHAT????

sketched me out too. forsberg was in the "money" #4 slot, which tells me sweden's coach sees him as the best scorer/player. at least shootout wise. paid off.

Even though our season ended, glad to see Forsberg and Arvy doing well and helping their team win the gold medal.
