[MarVell]

This game is over. Congrats to the gold team sweden.

 

[Snippit]

If either team plays like this tomorrow Canada will eat them up

 

[Master P]

Wow is this Us really gonna choke this?

How would they be choking?

 

[Phil McKraken]

Setting up the third period choke, it never fails.

 

[Devils Army]

Eh, point taken, but going from a couple of top draft picks to overtaking canada is still an insane leap of logic

100% agree just think US is really been developing higher end talent thats starting to equal Canada

 

[petrishriekandgo]

Keep putting Sweden on the PP and this is what is going to happen eventually. Better stay out of the box.

Which is why the Swedes need to keep pressing...

 

[TheGoldenJet]

Nylander so smooth on that PP, sublime passing.

No doubt some haters will still find some reason to crap on him.

Funny how I was run out of town for suggesting Liljegren & Dahlin being similar level PP QBs (With significant difference ES) and the first time Liljegren starts PP1, they score. Really haven't been a fan of Dahlin on PP recently

Liljegren is very good but he was hardly involved in the goal.

Choke this?

Sweden is the better team if the US loses it isn't a choke.

Oh lord, here we go...

 

[TheTwelfth]

Is Pettersson double shifting or only playing with Lundeström now?

 

[4thlineduster]

Just sat down to watch this game.....so far just seems like both teams D are playing pass with each other across the neutral zone.

Whole game been like this?

Replace Canada with Sweden and I might sign off on it

 

[Tralfamadore]

Rough game for Liljegren.

 

[Phil McKraken]

Nylander so smooth on that PP, sublime passing.

No doubt some haters will still find some reason to crap on him.

I complain about him sometimes, but only because I know how high his potential is.

Greatt goal, USA the better team so far but you have to utilize you chances.

Sweden knows how to defend and the goalie amazing so far.

USA offensive and aggressive now but it could lead to another penalty.

 

[Strait2thecup]

Oh lord, here we go...

Leafs.. liljegren!!! Second overall at one point! Mono!

 

[Snuuzi]

My grandmother skates faster then liljegren

 

[Baxterman]

Sweden running around like crazy lucky not to give up a goal.

Shifts like that really emphasize that these guys are still so young. One thing goes wrong and they just lose all sense of positioning and run around like chickens with their heads cut off.

 

[bottomofthefoodchain]

Filip bailing us out at the moment

 

[smurfyeah19]

US finally getting aggressive

 

[Woodhouse]

Nice push by USA.

 

[satbank]

US is going to get shutout too many miss chances.

 

[Iceman]

I have 2 issues:

1. Why are the Swedish players trying to chip out the puck from the d-zone with their backs turned time after time?
2. Other than some PP time, Liljegren looks like he might be having a short leash because you can see that he is thinking about going for the bench rather than finishing a play even if he stays on the ice for another dozen seconds.

Lias Andersson injured!
