GDT: 2018 WJC • Game 27 • SF1: SWE (4) - USA (2) F

[John Agar]

That would be so sweeet.

Holy sour grapes...

I like it though...

I'm hoping my Canadian Juniors vex your voodoo...

 

[Merya]

Woll with an absolute pathetic display all tournament - arguably the worst performance from a top team goaltender I've seen. Motzko deserves criticism for goaltending decisions.

Luukkonen was worse.

 

[Chimpradamus]

Nylander being named a player of the tournament above Pettersson and Gustavsson is an odd pick.

Dahlin and Andersson are correct though.

Yup, Nylander played much better two years ago than this year. He has been very bad. He has not even been a top 5 player in Sweden. Probably top 10.

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

That was a bad slash. Yamamoto was not milking it.

Anybody got a gif of the slash. I missed it.

 

[romelson]

Great win.
...

Dahlin isn't gonna win any beauty contests any time soon

Classy

 

[John Agar]

Wow dis that really happen?

I thofht nylander was the 3rd best forward for sweedes

Petterson was amazing...

Should be the pick for sure...

 

[nucks88]

Oh well. It was a good run. Congrats to the Swedes. But it would've been nice beating Canada. Again. For gold. Again.

Sort of like our Olympic teams....Men's and Women's

 

[Zip15]

But you won't., you will play for bronze.

This was established in my post, Captain Redundant.

 

[EK47]

Missed the slash? What happend? Looked like it hurt bad, hopefully it's not bad for Yamamoto.

Other than that, it's been a gongshow in the third period. What the heck has the refs been up to? Such dives.

Looked similar to what happened to Lindholm in the WHC this spring could've hit a nerve.

 

[Master P]

What?

If anything Canadians get criticized for taking this tournament too seriously.

Well it may have changed recently but in previous tournaments I remember seeing canadians say they didn't think the tourney was a big deal as well as use the whole "our best players aren't on the team" argument. Every fanbase is guilty of having those type of people.

 

[vippe]

I am honestly curious to hear what your problems are with the goals he let in tonight. I am all ears. Should be good.

Me to, he was the best player for the US tonight.

 

[JAS 39 Gripen]

Wait, did Alex Nylander just get named one of the 3 best Swedish player in the tournament over Pettersson?!?

It's "over Jonsson Fjällby?!?", not Pettersson.

 

[HanSolo]

Anybody got a gif of the slash. I missed it.

I'd like to see it again. I only saw it from distance and it didn't look "vicious" to me. Looked like a standard whack on his pad.

 

[Zip15]

Sort of like our Olympic teams....both of them!

Like moths to the flame, Butthurt Canadian fans who can't let go of previous losses.

 

[Patrik Barkov]

What does that have to do with anything?

I didn't love or hate getting slashed it was just part of the game.

Either way that doesn't change the fact that Yamamoto is a little *****.

Don't even want to know whats under that censor. It's sad how agressive people get over kids playing hockey.

 

[Nithoniniel]

I might be biased but I don't see the issue with Woll in this game. Don't really have an opinion on the first goal against, and the last two are just ridiculous shots. Might have over-committed a bit on the second, but not really something I'd blame him for either.

 

[New User Name]

Way to stay classy Canadian fans. Saying a dirty slash was deserved.

I see more Canadian fans saying it was a dirty slash.

But i guess I'll say, do what you're known for Americans and generalize.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

I am honestly curious to hear what your problems are with the goals he let in tonight. I am all ears. Should be good.

Seriously? Goals 3 and 4 were terrible. Goal 1 was pretty bad as well.

He was just playing with zero confidence. You just can't allow those types of goals in a big game like this. But he was terrible all tournament so it's not a surprise.

Idk if you hit your knee funnybone it deadlegs you and hurts like hell just gotta get the right spot tho.

 

[Tomas W]

Diving or not its the refs job to do the refs job. Well to be fair the were max two questionable calls against Sweden, but they came in a bad time at the end there.

 

[DDRhockey]

Americans crying about a slash when they flopped like italian soccer players all game

 

[EK47]

Well deserved win by Sweden very happy to see so many of the guys come through and execute a very good game.

Especially happy for Petterssons monster game.

 

[The List Of Jericho]

Great win.

Classy

Was meant to be a joke not a shot, it's a correct statement though lol

 

[Chimpradamus]

Yup, the complaining on the American goalie is ridiculous. Those were some crazy shots. He did his job.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

But i guess I'll say, do what you're known for Americans and generalize.

The irony in this statement is delicious.
