Exhibition or not, it was a good experience and a boost of confidence

OK. I hope you make it to the finals then. Can't wait....

Russia already demonstrated it can play successfully against Canada

Infamous quote by James Duthie(TSN): "Canada is not Finland"

That showed in their match vs Sweden.

 

[Eye of Ra]

Sweden have won over Finland in best on best tournaments 4 times in row.

2006 final, 2010 group game, 2014 semifinal and then this game.

there is no doubt, swedens a-team is better than finlands a-team in modern time.

 

[Conspiracy Theorist]

I wonder how Sweden will fare against Finland in 2018.

Even if FIN would have won yesterday, it would still be heavily in SWE's favour.

However, yesterday's game looked much more equal than it did in Sochi or 2010 Vancouver.
Lundqvist was by far SWE's best player. Too bad he is tired today.

World Cup 2004 and Olympics 2006 were pretty equal too.

F*** the doubters! Berglund is ALWAYS the **** in tre kronor

Got my comment on Russia wrong, they got a good chance of getting through.

 

[Tomas W]

NA dominated they game as a whole. But dont count Sweden out, they were tired. Next time theyll be better defensively.
