World Cup: 4 Nations Tournament - Team Sweden (2025)

[HBK27]

With Markstrom injured last night and Devils saying he will miss "some time", he's most likely out for the tournament. Who is expected to take his roster spot?

Ullmark seems like he'll be back from injury at that point and would be the starter. Gustavsson has been good this season overall, but has struggled recently (.839 SV% and 5.64 GAA his past 4 games).

I'd guess Ersson would be next man up on the goalie side. Anton Forsberg would be the other option. Before the season I would've said Wallstedt as they seem to be grooming him to be the next Sweden #1, but he is having an awful season

William Karlsson's also out week-to-week.

Backlund in if Billie is out.

Markström out is f***ing shit. He was our starter in my opinion. Ullmark clearly not ready to go yet and I would prefer if he played a couple of games before 4 Nations starts.

Gustavsson likely starting I guess with Ersson and Forsberg as backups, unless Ullmark recovers at latest next week.

Backlund in if Billie is out.

I wouldn’t mind this at all. Backlund is a great leader and plays a solid game.
