Entertaining stuff!

Tyler Myers in the swedish studio! Man that guy is not small. Makes Mikael Renberg look like a munchkin.

Looks like Curtis Hamilton and Anton Lander will be a big part of the Oilers future.

4 - 4 so far. I thought it would be low scoring... But with hindsight, this is what you get with two great teams with no experienced D-men.

Larsson really stepped up his game in the second period, just keep playing your game kid, you've got nothing to prove.

Funny, I`ve never once seen a goalie, purposely anyway, move his head towards a puck to save it. Ever. And I`m being completely honest.

I have a lot of times and I am being completely honest. Maybe you should watch more hockey? Any goalie that is scared of the puck no matter where its heading should reconsider there position.

Canada has been shaky all game. Against Sweden and in a important game, you have to be in top gear.

Sweden has been very good. Sweden has made Canada look very bad. Canada has made Canada look very bad.

All of that said it is tied going to the 3rd. Find a way to pull this out, properly thank the hockey gods, then go off and re-mf'ing-group.

Olsen is so bad that he's awesome. Own goal, knocked Swedesh forwards on Roy twice, fell into the boards while going to pick up the puck. What does he have in store for the final stanza?

Keep playing him Cameron, yeah, that's the right move.

The Swedes are the class of the tournament.

He does have a style which makes you think he doesn't care. He holds on to the puck way too long all the time, and on the pk-goal he could've easily beaten the Canadian to puck puck to negate the 2-1 from even happening.

Heäs good, but not as good as everyone thought he'd be a year ago.

Sweden's game reminds me of the U.S. style at the Vancouver Olympics... high speed, great positioning, no fear on the boards. Makes me think they've built an NHL pad somewhere in Sweden to practice on. Very, very fun to watch.

Oh, and as per the previous thread, last shot wins.

What does that make Canada? We're tied with them.....
