GDT: U-18 WJC Day 11 Bronze medal game and final

[1912]

PP this is our chance!

 

[joe89]

Perfect time to get back in the game here.

or not.

Not having played Canada or US in preliminary or earlier games hurt the swedes. Their D can't handle the aggressive forecheck from the states forwards which eliminates one of their key aspects to their game.

 

[1912]

That lasted long...

What the hell are the Swedes doing? Kerdiles gets a gift and scores a pretty breakaway goal.

 

[Uncle Rotter]

Terrible

 

[WayneBruce]

4 absolute gifts....

 

[joe89]

Collective meltdown. There's always next year..

 

[1912]

It starting to get funny now. How can they bee so sloppy!

 

[Muminek]

That`s an own goal.

 

[Pentothal]

Surprise! Another defensive breakdown..

 

[Systemfel]

Embarrassing.

They've ran into the wall known as Seth Jones. His play before the goal starting the transition then led the Swedes into trouble. He won the game against Canada and now he's just toying with the Swedes...kid's special, too advanced for this level.

Watch them get stressed now. Going to be a lot of chances for USA on stressed passing from Swedens part.

Words of a prophet right there!

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

this is getting embarrassing

 

[zorz]

Wasn't that unexpected IMO.

 

[Uncle Rotter]

So far, only Canada's scored a goal against the US

 

[joe89]

Disappointing showing for Collberg and his line, who's been the best prior to this game. H.Lindholm and Forsberg showing why they are high picks though.

Forsberg kind of annoys be because despite all that skill his finishing still leaves a lot to be desired.

USA has been rock solid in this tourney playing for, I believe, their 7th Gold in 10 years.

USA was also 1 goal away from going undefeated in the 2010 Olympics.

USA hockey still has a long way to go but it is great to see some strides being made.

I can't way to see Seth Jones in the NHL. I hope Dallas makes a trade to pick him.

Just the way the game has been I guess. He leads Sweden in the tournament with five goals, trailing only Lehkonen.

Sweden did play USA in a pre-action game tho and won 3-2.

Yeah he's been very productive. I just think if was a better finisher he could of had three maybee four more.


Another goal. Embearrasing.

 

[KRM]

Great start...
