Canada v Sweden. Best game?

[JoeSakic13]

The fact that last nights game has 13 votes makes me think we have 13 voters here who weren’t alive in 1996.

Canada’s worst forward 5 on 5, excellent 3 on 3 tho lol

against States ide put Bennet in ....Marner out

Binnington call to start makes me nervous. Not like TC has clear cut #1.
Hill should be in

I remember seeing you in iihf forums in the early 2000s. You must be in your 40 ties possibly approaching 50. I think you are maturing backwards..

Always nice to catch up with old friends.

Hope you are doing well!

I voted for 1996 and I don't think it is particularly close among those three choices. Most entertaining game the two countries have ever played. Highest stakes among the choices, though I don't think that that matters much to the quesion.

Joke tournament 1, Joke tournament 2, or the Olympics? Yeah, what a difficult choice.

All jokes

Swedes with Sundin and Forsberg too!

This is for me my favourite, most memberable game. It was not best on best, but I was 12 years old at the time and I had just started getting into watching hockey.

Sweden came back from 1-5 to winning 6-5 against Finland in the quarter finals, after pulling Tommy Salo. In his place, Mikael Tellqvist came in and was lights out, but unfortunately it wasn't enough for a gold.

I remember watching the video review feeling like it lasted for an hour.

Canada-Sweden 22-0 Medal Round, 1924 Olympics.

You and me both, old-timer.

Really had to crank the car to get it going that morning.

And blowing off the whistle for changing sides 10:00 in the 3rd is till more correct to me.

Unfortunately I missed that one because my tv was not invented yet.

Lol how is the 2014 Olympic Gold medal game not on this list, that was some of the most dominant hockey I've ever seen from Canada.

Sweden were missing all their star centers that game to be fair.
I think they had Berglund/M.Johansson/Kruger instead of Zetterberg/Backstrom/H.Sedin as their top 3.
