Sedin x 2, Jonsson x 2.
Cool, I haven't thought about that. I can't think of any, anyone knows?

in both losses, canada was outworked and faced strong team D. these haven't been strengths of russia so far.Naru said:I don't want to get the Swiss. Watching the Canada - Finland game I really want to have a game against them. I really can't see them getting much further the way they're playing. They were trying any line combo you could think of, and still sucked.
It's no mystery that Henrik Lundqvist will probably not be in goal for Sweden. Mikael Tellqvist will probably play.Den said:I'd like to see a Svk-Swe game were both teams are trying to loose
I hope he will so we have a fresh Henrik Lundqvist in goal on Wednesday.Chimp said:It's no mystery that Henrik Lundqvist will probably not be in goal for Sweden. Mikael Tellqvist will probably play.
Which way do you go to the mountain that you have to climb; through the jungle full of trip wires, laser guided missiles, acid swamps and Swedish eating crocodiles, or around it on a bridge that some Swiss pikemen guard?Petey21 said:It's lame thinking "we wanna lose" when you play a game, it should always be about winning and nothing but winning, no matter who the opponent is. And besides, facing Switzerland, a team that beat both the Czechs and the Canadians, doesn't sound like the easiest obstacle in the quest for gold. And "easy wins" might not be as easy anyway, Belarus was a proof of that...

Also beating USA is a thing of principle. They will never drop that game.

shawn_kemp said:As funny as hoping for a win was, I definetly want Russia to give 100% and win. I don't care if that means that we have to face Canada or the Czech Republic. Just win.
MartinFr said:I haven't read all the post but I must say that I hate that there's even a discussion going on. Sweden must give 110% against Slovakia, win and come into the quarterfinal hot..
And who wants to face a confident team with nothing to loose in the quarterfinal like the swiss?
Den said:But I would put Sokolov in the net however: since the outcome is not that important, Nabokov can rest before the quaters...

To make it even funnier, what if the Swiss lose against Italy and finish third?

WERE leading with something like less than 4 minutes to go.. http://www.hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=4684953&postcount=60Leo Naphta said:Damn it! Now the Italians are leading!
Sweden wants to, Russia wants to and Slovakia wants to, when the alternatives are named Russia and Czech Republic. I also think USA would want Switzerland instead of Finland if you would ask them.MartinFr said:And who wants to face a confident team with nothing to loose in the quarterfinal like the swiss?
