HF Habs: 2023 World U18 Men's Hockey Championship: Finals Sunday, April 30 | Canada wins Bronze, 4-3 (OT) | USA wins Gold, 3-2 (OT), Sweden Silver

[MarkovsKnee]

US playing too much hero hockey here.

I really like Dvorsky but in my opinion Lundell was a better player in his draft year, I had him at 3 in 2020 after Lafreniere and Stutzle. He regressed this year but still has been good for FLA. I don t see why you are saying that about Dvorsky or Reinbacher. NA fans are always more ready to believe in NA forwards scoring at will against peers rather than European players already facing professional competition…

Get that garbage out of here.

 

[Mrb1p]

Stenberg has a lot of opportunities but he is not clutch at all. No killer instinct.

 

[RationalExpectations]

Get that garbage out of here.

Which garbage ? Look at Canada with Barlow Wood Crystall supposed to all go top 10 and getting destroyed by Sweden.

 

[Hannibal]

If usa’s first line disappear at the first real challenge they, it’s bad look imo.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

US's big line getting buried on the cycle on that shift.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Another PP for Sweden. Vote hook.

Ir wasn't a penalty but there were 3 or 4 penalties against Sweden before that not called.

 

[DramaticGloveSave]

These Swedes need to move up your lists

The xenophobia garbage.

You want to debate/challenge my opinions, go right ahead.

You attribute them to xenophobia, you can f*** right off.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

They are already as high as they should be.

Yeah, very bad. Will Smith should really fall at 6th to habs for that!

 

[Mrb1p]

What a boring game compared to SVK/CAN

Sweden's puck movement is almost flawless.

I’m not making ANY judgement on what you said (I don’t even know the initial quote tbh) but I think a lot of NA fans prefer NA players without it being xenophobic. A lot of it might be familiarity or just regional homerism(something that is HARDLY relegated wholly to North Americans)

 

[Mrb1p]

Smith is smooth with it

 

[atrud66]

The Americans look like a team that have never really had to dig in and win a puck battle. In big boy hockey, you can't just wait for the puck to find you and then dangle. You have to get in the corners.

 

[Mrb1p]

Sweden's puck movement is almost flawless.

Thats what happens when you have the two best D in the tournament.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Well, Sweden controlled the play in that period.

2-0 Sweden after 2

 

[SwiftyHab]

Is Sandin-Pelika the highest ranked Swede i this years draft?

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Their D is really good.

Carlsson. Then ASP.

Stenberg gotta be in the mix too.

And of course Carlsson

I have never said anything about xenophobia. Can you read ?

Saying some fans overvalue local junior level vs European pro league has nothing to do with xenophobia.

If you can t understand the difference go back to school and come back when you have read some books and learnt something useful.

 

[SwiftyHab]

Carlsson. Then ASP.

Thanks. I meant on this roster but ya. Guess they’re all just good but not many of these Swedes are considered top 10-12 talent
