1-1 in redicilous penalties, so I have nothing to say about the refs.

As for the game, ffs... stop hitting the frigging post. We should be in a big lead by now.

Bäckström have played bad, so far. He goes away from the crease when he should be going towards it. I simply hate it.

Anyway, as i predicted, our defenders would be looking slow against the quick russians.

Russia looked rusty and actually looked like crap in 1st 10min... They looked fast but very rusty... Who got a major penalty and for what? I am watching it in French.

Wow does Makarov look like a player tailor made for the new NHL.

Blackhawk fans have something to be excited about this tournament: Toews, Makarov, Skille looked ok for the US, etc.

Can someone explain to me why Sweden got called on an icing even though they were killing a penalty?


Sidenote: Objectively, this game is more exciting than the US/Can game.

First 10, all Sweden. Last 10, all Russia.

2-2 would be fair, Sweden do have three hits in the goalposts..

Incase I haven´t said it enough, Bäckström isn´t the best player onm the Swedish team, he´s barely top-5.

I am watching now how Russia is about to score goal 3, and thinking you must be a little biased....

What's happening now has nothing with what had happened before. I agree with him that sweden outplayed russia up until the equalizer.

Bumagin because of a hit to the head which automatically comes with a 10 minutes miscunduct. I havn't seen the replay though.

Is it me or the Sweds look 5 times bigger than us? :help:

Swedens quick start probably surprised the russians a bit, but the Russians superior skill is evident. This will turn into a blowout.

And I have been watching a game dominated by swedes for 15 out of 20 minutes with 2 shots in the post and 1 in the cross bar.

3 posts, 1 really bad non-call. Interesting, but not surprising, that the ref didn't notice bäckström's big time interference on swedens 1-0...

Best ref so far? (nice to be favoured by the ref :eek: :sarcasm: )

You had the last 5 min but we should have been up with 3 or 4 goals until then. Swedish offense looks good but russians are damn fast and very technical, this will be the best game of the tournament probably.
