this "Färjestad-kjedan" sucks when it matters and play like this now...

 

[12# Peter Bondra]

How come Latvia is losing so badly?

 

[reaper]

They are tired and Sweden wanted revenge from USA-game. Sweden showing good qualities scoring goals, if they can build from this it might be a medal for Sweden.

It's one thing to score PP-goals vs Latvia. It's another thing to do it against Canada and USA, as has been painfully evident.

 

[RorschachWJK]

I could not watch the game, so could you guys help out a bit. Analysis of the outcome, anybody? After all, pretty much nobody expected a blowout like this. What happened?

Yes, i'm aware of that, our PP is getting better though which is a must. Rhodin is good on the PP and has improved the Swedish PP. Of what I've seen Sweden has the best play in 5 vs 5. Good speed and movement. So I think we have good chance at a medal.

 

[Riddarn]

This is perfect.. for Switzerland.

 

[Wisent]

The music, the shops, the city.. that I can get. Especially the shops (Hey, I'm a girl).

But the beer?

Man you have bad taste in beverages! Swedish beer is worse than XXXX, which tasted like Kangaroo urine.

When god created Europe and European nations, he created 1 nation that for the life of it would never be able to brew good beer. Thus Sweden was born.

I agree, especially since they have Lapin Kulta. And I'm from Germany, I know my beer.

 

[reaper]

At least Switzerland plays hockey not like some other not named countries I think Switzerland is better for us than say a nation like Ukraine. Switzerland has a higher tempo and that will be to our advantage.

Latvia was simply so tired. They were standing still and Sweden kept and moved the puck. Latvia's goalies were also very tired so that was the whole game. Latvia had only something like 19shots on goalie.

 

[Habsfan 32]

Jonas Höglund 9-1, goal on the PP.

He can still score?

 

[Shack]

He can still score?

Between the pads. It was Masalskis goal.

We can kiss Kahnberg goodbye, Höglund will play every game from now on. Damnit.

 

[wilka91*]

Ok, thanks. That's what I feared might happen.

 

[Shack]

Ok, thanks. That's what I feared might happen.

But still I'm worried. Finland couldn't score even a single goal and Sweden did it nine times

Ok, Latvia was tired, but not by that much. Sweden was simply 1000x better and alot more creative than Finland.
