To be serious, the Swedes need to stop giving Canada bulletin board material. The comments by coach don't bother me, but make him look foolish, as you should always let sleeping dogs lie. Especially when the sleeping dog has crushed your dreams so many times over recent years. Do they never learn? If Canada and Sweden meet in the finals, I guarantee that coach will soil his pants, as if they lose, everyone will point at his comments, and he will look historically foolish.
What's wrong with him saying the Russian's were a harder opponent? It is his opinion, and I have to say I share it. Even though they didn't score any goals, they created a lot more chances and also defended better.
Again, saying Canada are not the best team in the tournament is not disrespectful, and it doesn't make you look stupid.
