[Chimpradamus]

Hahahaha! This guy is too much. 5 on 3 for Sweden now and neither was anything, especially not the second.

Great game so far the Danes have a lot of pride

 

[Pushkin*]

great crowd

 

[Chimpradamus]

Ã…kerman scores, 2-2 on the 5 on 3.

 

[DayWalk3r]

15-3 in shots so far.

 

[Crazyhorse]

Sloppy first 10 minutes, hopefully we can get rolling in the second, with the long substitutes in favour.

 

[Chimpradamus]

Steen another 2 min penalty for breathing on a Danish player.

They just said this Czech ref has an average of 56(!!) PIM each game. Incredible. I must have misheard it for 36 or something, still a brutal number though. This guy must be used to reffing peewee hockey.

 

[hdw]

Well we always tank one game per tournament.

Let's hope this is the tanker

And let's be positive, it's good for hockey in denmark

 

[Tobias]

This just sucks. It should still be 2-0. The 5on3 PP was a joke from the ref, and there was CLEARLY a crease violation on the 2nd goal...

And *** was that that PP goal about? there was NOOOOO penalty there...

Oh my god, this just sucks..

 

[DayWalk3r]

Is Johan Davidsson the leading tournament scorer now?

 

[CSKA]

Is Johan Davidsson the leading tournament scorer now?

for one day yes

 

[Crazyhorse]

for one day yes

How could you say that, he is going to get a hattrick in the third, i can promise you!

Anyway, Båg needs to adjust the lines with Wallin/Hedström/Warg, and Bäckström/Steen/Emwall. None of them are working. I would rather see Bäckström/Steen with Warg, and Emwall with Wallin and Hedström.
We need to get Bäckström and Steen going. They won't get going if they don't receive some top pp-time, they allways seems to be the last line that gets the chance.

 

[Tobias]

Best match ever by Denmark. We should have won this one if it wasn't for that stupid ref...

To be fair, that ref has been awful against both teams. And to say that you would win with 2-0 after one period of hockey is stretching it a little bit too far.

On a OT note, I fell asleep for about a period.

 

[Hennessy]

Haha!

 

[Tobias]

Yes he has, but look at it from our pov. We are playing an elite nation, and almost all the Swedish goals had something to do with the ref being incompetent. It would've been 2-0 if he didn't suck.

 

[hdw]

Best match ever by Denmark. We should have won this one if it wasn't for that stupid ref...

Yes and no

Denmark gave a very good game. Possibly best ever.

But Denmark still needs a little bit more than that, and a bit more than refs, to win that game.

But the danish game are getting better, and this second round, not relegation round.

So congrats to Denmark

 

[Riddarn]

As entertainment goes, this was not much to remember..

Denmark played well, Sweden did not. I think 5-2 was way too big numbers all things considered. It would not have been unfair for this game to "end" 3-3 instead. Denmark should have a realistic shot at beating Switzerland.

Love the new danish generation of players. I wonder how a U-23 game between Sweden and Denmark would end up. Probably pretty even.

 

[DayWalk3r]

I was very impressed by Peter Regin (Timra IK)

 

[Crazyhorse]

Yes and no

So congrats to Denmark

Isn't the USA game in 2003 the best ever for Denmark?

Anyway, all credit to Denmark, they where playing great, Sweden got a lucky break on that 4th goal.

It will get tougher from here. After the Finland game, we should now where we stand.

 

[Toett]

We should have won this one if it wasn't for that stupid ref...

 

[yarre]

Sweden would have won the World cup in football 2006 if it weren't for that stupid ref!

 

[Tobias]

Yeah the Danes are coming. Looking forward to our NT in a few years with players like Lars Eller, Mikkel Bødker, Morten Madsen, Kirill Starkov, Mark Mieritz, Sebastian Svendsen, Philip Larsen, Oliver Lauridsen, etc etc.

I think our u23 teams would be very, very even.

The result was better, yes, but i think they played at least as good in this game.

I wouldn't dare to speak for the Danes but I'd guess that if beating USA is very nice then beating Sweden in hockey would send Denmark into a wild party frenzy

Now both Sweden and Finland has had their tank games.
We'll have to step up for 'the game'.
And Denmark should party hard.

Look at the good things, Denmark played a really good game. And Norway is playing relegation

 

[Hennessy]

Denmark played an impressive game. In some ways the outcome was closer than the score, but you can't ignore the shot differential. Still, Denmark kept it close most of the game.

The refs were brutal to both teams. I don't mind if you call 20 penalties in a game as long as they're deserved, but so many of those weren't even borderline.
