WC: May 7 GDT - Sweden vs. Russia

[Den]

This 4 on 4 looked like a Russian PP

Kulemin doesn't know when to shoot

 

[hdw]

Close shot in the post there. The Swedes are obviously having as a game plan to throw in guys in net, trying to screen, redirect and grabbing rebounds. I like it. Alot.

Well obviously.
Russia rules the offensive play, but they are more human in their D and goaltending.

Now we'll see what happens with the game, 2-1 russia.

On a sidenote.

For my Swedish ears and lousy TV background audio it sounds like the audience is shouting "Lat-Vi-A", but a qualified guess is that they aren't

 

[Paxton Fettel]

I want a big brawl!

I know, you miss us much. But for some miraculous reason we will be playing in Canada!
Oh, Canada!

 

[hdw]

Erh?
What's happening? Someone looking for an NHL contract?

Fighting, in a game like this?

 

[dmonk]

The ref is from Canada.... He keeps reminding players they need to fight there are NHL scouts watching from the seats.

 

[Jokerit Wasp]

Crappiest penalty shot call ever.

Agree 100%. Wasnt even a penalty, never mind a PS.

Ok, "applying of gloved hand in opponents face area", shouldn't call it fighting.

 

[ThirdEye]

What the hell happened there with Malkin

 

[Jokerit Wasp]

good call on the Malkin offside...

What has Russia got against Hornqvist?!

 

[Kaizer]

Kovalchuk is Pejorative Slured.. no realy, I have to say this.

Didn't even happen.

 

[Den]

What the hell Mansson wants?

 

[Paxton Fettel]

I want a fight!!!

PS. Ilya is an idiot.

 

[Chimpradamus]

Oh come on, stupid crowd. Don't throw stuff on the ice, it's so stupid it's not even funny.

Now that's crap. That should be a 5 on 3 for Sweden.

Tha looked like the goalie bottle

Jeez this is turning into a boxing match

 

[Paxton Fettel]

Meat!!! Bones!!! Blooood!

 

[hdw]

Kovalchuk is Pejorative Slured.. no realy, I have to say this.

Don't be so sure, there's a lot of 'posturing' going on.

But we can always hope that the Russian players will cave in to the audience and do silly things.

Erh, or rather more silly things.

 

[Systemfel]

Some cowardly play by the Russians, eh?

 

[dmonk]

and we were predicting a friendly game

What did Kovalchuk do? I had to step out and didn't see the moment/

 

[Jussi]

What the hell happened there with Malkin

He went offside.

 

[Kaizer]

Don't be so sure, there's a lot of 'posturing' going on.

I understand this but there is only one "power forward after the whistle" in both teams so far.

 

[ThirdEye]

He went offside.

Yeh, got it after they showed the replay. Pretty obvious too

Eh?
