Yeah, I've heard he was injured during practice with his swedish youth team and it's been hurting since. I doubt he plays until real games.

Btw. How many exhibition games did Finland play before tonight's game?
Karlsson said that they had played 4 games, how is that possible?

Then it's too high for a lot of the Finnish players, because he was better than many of them in that first game.

Seen this coming from a mile away. He needs a significant amount of development before he becomes something in the NHL.

The organizer brought newly designed jerseys by Adidas for everyone for the World Cup, but Adidas didn't do much anything for the classic Swedish one.
Though, Finland also DO have newly designed jerseys for the IIHF events too which don't exactly please my eye. Some streetwear nonsense seems to have been involved with the explicit purpose of selling merc to the audiences.

Did you watch the game a mile away?
He didn't produce shots when the rest of the team (especially Vats) never got the PP in gear, but he wasn't a liability. Good battling, okay one on one, okay positioning and two-way play (even with the goal against where he was nearby). Middle of the pack. This in a team that was still struggling to find its game, against an excellent Swedish roster. Don't be surprised if he starts the season in the big club and doesn't look out of place. Sure, if by "something" you mean outstanding or elite out of the box, then I agree, he'll need more development before he hits his prime.
Yeah Barkov looked great.
Swedens coach seems to have a lot of rust to shake off on the other hand...
Swedens 3rd line and the Sedins looked pretty good. EK took too many chances, cant affort that further on. Bäckis line was invisible, that could well be Grönborgs fault though.lil foppa didnt gave good game unfortunately.

Didn't think Ristolainen played that well after the first, but it's clear no one on the D possesses as much pure game braking ability as him. Not his best game, but he made it so obvious who is our #1 D now and going forward.
Vatanen has always been a slow starter, as far back as his JYP days. Don't expect miracles from him in this tournament, at least in the first couple of games. Maybe it has something to do with his summer conditioning, I don't know.
Swedens coach is garbage. Look at the speed from NA team. Nylander is needed in sweden

Why is that an idiotic decision? Lunqvist will take the rest of the games and they wanted to give both some icetime. Nothing wrong with changing goalie in the middle of the game, they are prepared for it and can handle it.
