Czechs over Russia was a pretty big upset.

Could you imagine Belarus beating Sweden???








I can't. 7-1 is my bet for the final score.
 
I don't get the Liljegren hate. He didn't do anything bad that period
yeah. I'm not getting it either.
I thought he looked good. very good skater. poise with the puck. very good passing. Not sure about his shot yet though

He's a polarizing prospect that plenty of posters on this site have said isnt all that good.

The fact he plays for the Leafs makes the agenda for wanting him to fail even bigger.

He's going to need to have a great tournament for some to even give him recognition.
 
I just saw the goal against....Really don't understand people blaming Liljegren there. He got completely hung out to dry and lost an edge trying to recover on another players turnover.
 
I don't think Nylander deserves so much hate...**** like that happens and results in goals at every level of hockey.
We shouldn't judge him of one period that happens to be the first of the tournament, but he hasn't made a lot of plays that led to something good yet

He had a play where he just left the puck coming up the boards when he pinched and no one was there.

On the lost puck he dove instead of skating.

He's got some great tools but his decision making has been a little iffy.
 
Swedes are not that deep of a team.

Depends on what you mean by deep. Scoring wise, probably not however the Fjällby - Davidsson - Zetterlund line has looked really good in my oppinion and i wouldn't be suprised if they score more points than expected.
 
Is there always this much of a hivemind mentality in GDT on here? Incredibly premature opinions stated as facts everywhere. Witchhunt for certain players too, while others can do no wrong.
 
I mean Nylander is to blame for the goal but...

why did Liljegren need to dive for the puck like that? He's an elite skater and probably could have caught up to Sharangovich.

Not watched the first as watching end of Russia vs Czechs.

Was Linus Högberg really at 7D? With Moverare in top 4?

I mean, the last ~month or so Högberg has generally been in the top 4 for the best team in the SHL!
 
Johnsson-Fjällby and Davidsson are a treat to watch. If the rest of the Swedes had half of their drive, they would be up 2 goals by now. Imagine those two together with Jesper Bratt.

It only gets worse as the tourney grows, I always forgot how awful GDT threads are during this tourny.
