I think most the players said NO knowing that this current team is going nowhere after all. No points of joining anyway.

Bettson has Switzerland as a favourite against Sweden 2.31 vs 2.71. That is kind of rare, and a bit odd? 2.71 on Sweden in regulation is a sweet bet.

The value, although only slim, is on the 2,31 Swiss win. Sweden is still looking for themselves and Switzerland is probably the most coherent, well built and organized team of this tournament with skilled individuals.

Olofsson hasn't been able to use his one timer at all. Passing is horrendously bad and there are no other shooter options on PP. Not an easy feat to score considering how predictable that PP is. Olofsson needs bodies in front at the very least. But who is doing the dirty work? Where's the God damn grit and determination to win? I Belarus has a goalie that can win games for them, antagonize him! Get in his face! Wussy garbage hockey we've been forced to watch.

I'll just pat myself on the back for a moment.
 
Lundeström, Dahlbeck and Lööv needs to get benched.

Reidenborn, its a no brainer that he should be our starter)

Lindberg - Lindholm - Rakell
Hållander - A.Kempe - M.Kempe
Sörensen - Rasmussen - Olofsson
Fröden - Wingerli - Friberg

Tömmernäs - Lundkvist
Pilut - Pudas
Sellgren - Nygren

If Lundkvist is injured then Albert Johansson gets in.

Mario Kempe was good today, its that brother chemistry. But without his brother is terrible.

What an amazing change in just one game. I'm astonished so many question marks played so well. Even Tömmernäs looked like a solid D-man. I just hope Lundkvist is ok and it was a minor thing, because he's really important for this team.

I will tone down my excessive criticism for now, they've proven they deserve it.

Sweden started playing after all. Pretty much what I expected would happen.. this team had potential for so much better than the first two games, things just don't always come together straight away and it's not like Sweden's the only top team to have a disappointing showing so far.
Nothings lost yet but a lot more needs to be done for this to be considered a good or even halfway decent tournament by Tre Kronor. Sweden and Czech will be interesting now that Czech has their backs against the wall and can't afford to lose another point.

Sweden looked pretty damn good against the Swiss and if they keep this up a medal is still a pretty realistic expectation.
 
Are we guaranteed to reach the QF if we beat GB and one of Russia/Czech Republic/Slovakia? I'm too lazy to look it up.

Edit

Looked it up. My guess is that Belarus will go pointless in their remaining games and that Denmark will only get points from Belarus. If that happens, we only need 6 more points in the remaining 4 games.

Depends on other results but we most likely have to win 3 of the 4 remaining to get through.
