[Chainshot]

Any more word on Dahlin other than the article yesterday? I haven't seen anything anywhere else pro or con.

Haven’t seen anything, as I said with Pettersson the source is most likely Ros having spoken to Dahlin, that means its probably true.

 

[EK47]

Zibanejad would be best addition. But rangers are not going out 1st round

I think devils take it in four or five.

NYR have a level better goalkeeper, that will decide. Vanecek, Blackwood or Schmid are not as good goaltenders as Shesterkin.

Ishockey: Förbundskapten Sam Hallam om NHL-förstärkningar: ”Pratar om dem som är här”

Det har ryktats om att bland annat Elias Pettersson och Rasmus Dahlin har tackat ja till VM-spel. Men den svenska förbundskaptenen Sam Hallam vill varken bekräfta eller prata om potentiella NHL-förstärkningar. – Vi pratar om dem som är på plats, säger han.

Hallam refuses to comment on NHLers when asked by SVT:
"Lets talk about the players that are here now."

I get the feeling that this management won't be as transparent as the Grönborg/Garpenlöv years

Under Grönborg, hockey players went to the World Cup as a holiday.

Under Grönborg, hockey players went to the World Cup as a holiday.

What do you mean?

 

[Czechboy]

Czech news says you got sanding, dahling, Raymond and Petterson... Good lord! Nice starting haul.

 

[MatBarzal]

What do you mean?

There were almost no refusals under Grönborg )

 

[EK47]

Awaiting confirmation from the federation.

 

[jj cale]

Czech news says you got sanding, dahling, Raymond and Petterson... Good lord! Nice starting haul.

And we are getting turned down by the Owen Tippetts of the world.

Yes, that was Grönborgs main strength as Team Sweden coach. He created am atmospheare that made the players want to come. He got two golds for it, despite maybe not being the best game coach.

Not to threadjack.. all the Czechs have confirmed is Kubalik right now! One NHL guy ... hoping that changes soon.lol

Back to Sweden talk.. Czech Media seemed very certain but totally agree and wait till your federation announces it. It was hokej.cz which isn't a tabloid type paper. Our version of NHL.com which is factual and kind of boring.lol

Sweden vs Norrway 19.00 today on SVTplay. Excited to see Leo Carlsson

It's factual: the four are joining.

To put it into some sort of perspective of how trustworthy Aftonbladet is at these kind of things: every other Swedish news site, including the Swedish publicly funded one, SVT, have reported it while crediting Aftonbladet.

No it was announced a couple of days ago in Aftonbladet. They usually don’t make this kinda shit up. But Im not taking this for granted.

Will be fun for sure. Doesn’t the u18s start today aswell?

Love Leo at center. It is his main position. Too bad he’s on the third line unlikely to see any pp time. Don’t like his linemates either really.

Indeed it's nice to see. I highly doubt Hallam won't play him on a PP. Karlkvist is a good linemate. Bengtsson supposed to do dirty work, I guess?

Aftonbladet is the biggest newspaper in Sweden, so they are highly credible. If they are reporting it, they have probably been in direct contact with the players or Teams Sweden mangement. But nothing is done until it's done. The clubs might block them, they might pull a groin while packing their bags.

I doubt it if you look at the PP lines for the Denmark games they were the same as the first two lines. Never been a fan of Karlkvist. He’s good enough to redirect a puck into the back of the net every once in a while but he doesn’t really have the talent I’d like to see with Carlsson, I would’ve preferred Dahlén. I see Karlkvist more as he’s the kind of player that has worked hard to become a point producer(respect), while it comes naturally for Dahlén.

 

[Eye of Ra]

Rasmussen getting PP but not Leo Carlsson, what a joke.

Karlqvist dont have the talent? What? He is super skilled. The problem with him is that he is super slow and lazy.

I’ve never seen his talent. Maybe I just dislike him. Its like that for me with some players
