WJC: 2015 — Sweden Roster Talk

[Matte99]

Are we playing tonight?

I think we are playing USA tonight.

 

[bottomofthefoodchain]

this swedish team is not very good

Talented, but very young

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Oliver Kylington out with injury

Oliver Kylington out with injury

Does this mean there will be no cuts on D or will the ship in any other D?

 

[Klown]

I feel bad for Kylington, but we have plenty of good defencemen in the pool so I can't say I am worried.

I like your positivity. But... he will be missed, cannot be replaced by any others in my view.

 

[First Blood]

How do you guys think Linus Soderstrom will fair? I know he was not penciled in as Sweden's #1 until the other guy got hurt. Just an Isles fan that would like a bit more info on him

Defense is set now. 1 forward will be cut.

 

[VictorLustig]

Well, that may explain why Kylington looked so bad against Canada. Wanted to see him more though...

He wasn't getting any PP time last game tho.. So if he wasn't used there he was the logical cut anyway. But a fully healthy Kylington playing PP would've been an asset.

So, weekend is over, Caps played on monday, still no Burakovsky in their lineup. "In case someone gets injured", **** the Caps.

Apparently that happened to OEL as well. Sat in the press box during the entire WJC, got to play shortly after the tournament had ended

 

[Bullseye]

All the best vs the USA tonight - pulling for team Sweden to surprise the Yanks a bit!

 

[SLOVAN]

Some friends from Sweden. You can tell my please which Swedish tv channel will by transmit matches from World Junior Championship? TH

[VictorLustig]

So we had questionable goaltending, now two of them are injured.....and the healthy one is questionable to say the least.

 

[Eye of Ra]

Call in Felix Sandström.

 

[JimboA]

Söderström is sick according to the goalie coach.

 

[VictorLustig]

Call in Felix Sandström.

My thought as well.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Samuel Ward has let in 15 goals in 2 games.

 

[vippe]

Samuel Ward has let in 15 goals in 2 games.

And he is our only healthy goalie? ouch

 

[canuck2010]

Saw a few low lights last night of the US Sweden game and attended the Sweden Canada game in Ottawa.

To state what's readily apparent I'm not so sure about the Swedish goal tending. Also saw an awful lot of half assed stick checks by Swedish defencemen. You need to play the man more in NA not just wave your stick at him when he goes by.

 

[wings5]

Will they call in Markus Olsson?

 

[sanitysrequiem]

Who plays on the top PP? Is it

Nylander
Kempe

Nylander, Kempe, Lindblom, Holmström, Forsling. But the two units are rather equal.

Hägg hasn't played yet though.
