I don't know anything about this Lehner kid. Is his dad one of those crazy hockey dads that push their kids way too hard?

His dad, who is a goalie trainer, was in the studio, and he seemed very...strict.

In short: YES!

 

[KRM]

Epic Swenglish going on here

lol at Marie Lehmann, asks a question to Boustedt in English, he says he prefers answering in Swedish. Boustedt finishes his reply and Marie immediately asks another question to him in English.

Yes. But hey Sweden is happy.

 

[Howe Elbows 9]

How highly is Frk regarded for the 2012 draft at this point? A legit contender for #1?

He's a legit contender, but I look at Yakupov as the top prospect right now.

Player |Team |League |GP |G |A |TP |PIM |Notes
Nail Yakupov |Sarnia |OHL |32 |22 |25 |47 |27 |#9 in league scoring
Martin Frk |Halifax |QMJHL |34 |11 |20 |31 |41 |#45 in league scoring

LArsson is playing very loose, he needs to tighten it up.

 

[Alessandro Seren Rosso]

Grigorenko is just as good

 

[Seth Lake]

cehlin gonna be special, nashville is it?

Yep! Cehlin really impressed me at prospect camp this summer. He and Linus Klasen hooked up throughout the camp and were virtually unstoppable during the final day's scrimmage. Klasen set up Cehlin and the puck was in the back of the net before the goalie could react.

Signed in the SEL through 2011-12, but I'm looking forward to his NA debut in a couple years...

 

[Slimmy]

Irrrroooonhooooook!!!

 

[Very Stable Genius]

Jarnkrok!

 

[Phil McKraken]

Järnkrok!

 

[Detroitredwingsfan]

jarnkrok scores!

 

[paradeofwolves]

Thanks for the responses.
Hmm. Hopefully he loves what he does because he's good at it.

Nice goal for Sweden!

SEL players can leave for NA anytime.

Sweden scores despite playing very sloppy

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Looks like it worked for that guy on the Rangers.

 

[Slimmy]

Great play, crashing the net like that.

 

[Novak Djokovic]

The thing that scares me the most about Sweden: Robin Lehner

It also feels good that he's doing good (as a Sens fan) so if Sweden plays against USA in the Gold Medal game, I'm definitely cheering for the Swedes.

What's the score ? is there a stream ?

 

[Slimmy]

Czech players trying to throw Sweden off their game with dirty hits.

6-3 swe

 

[joe89]

Ken Holland must be pretty happy with his prospect.

 

[Riddarn]

Ken Holland must be pretty happy with his prospect.

He should be happy. Järnkrok should have been a top 20 pick in my opinion.

 

[Phil McKraken]

I'm really digging the moustache on that guy with the red cap in the Czech booth.

 

[Slimmy]

Swedish PP. Lets close this one.
