GDT: Czechs vs Sweden, semi final, 9am EST

[Dingo]

That’s where the expression “You lose the silver, win the bronze” comes from.

I’m not sure if they interview people right after the semi-final loss though and compare that with the silver medalists.

thats a really good point. Winning the semi minus losing the Gold vs. losing the semi plus winning the Bronze. Gives more perspective for sure.

Mike Johnston gushing about that Lindstein

“He’s not talked about that much from my discussions around this touranament, him and Willander have been the best pairing in this tournament, and they are kind of under the radar. They both lead the tournament in +/- at +12 in 6 games, and they haven’t been the ice for a goal against the entire tournament”

If people aren't talking up Lindstein's tournament, I would wonder if they're watching the tournament at all. He's been excellent.

Yup, Sweden's best D without a doubt.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Such a dominant third period.

 

[WetcoastOrca]

That D pairing of Lindstein and Willander has been the best in the tourney. Both are just so poised. No goals against so far.

Remove those 4 points and he still had 4 points in 5 games, you’re expecting wayy to much if that’s a major dissapointment. He wasn’t a world beater but major dissapointment is a stretch.

You mean expecting to much for the leading goal scorer(At the time) in the AHL to show up today against teenagers?

How dare I.

Yeah he wasn´t world beater, he wasn´t even meat beater, he was just meat.

Impressive stuff.

Anyone have video of Ostlund goal?


Thanks

You do realize that you wouldn’t be watching Czechia in the semi-finals at all if it wasn’t for him?

Also, man up.

 

[BigBadBoar]

Kulich is tied for 3th in scoring at the tournament lol

Kulich scored a hattrick vs. Norway (4 pts), but besides that he was "just" 1+3 in 5 games, which wasn't exactly spectacular for such a goal scorer. He was trying to shoot it a lot but it simply wasn't his tournament. He had good moments but wasn't exactly on the right wave with finishing.

Very, very happy with all three of the Canuck prospects but Willander is the most intriguing to me……

 

[EK47]

You paid in kronor, not euros.

They tried to fool him it was Danish Krone I guess he didn’t fall for it.

 

[SantosHalper]

Czechia played a good game but those 2 easy goals were too costly. Czechia still has more than good chance to win the bronze.

Forced the turnover in the half 3-2 leading up to Östlunds goal.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Amazing celebration.

Lindstein is having a great tournament. Best D this tournament?

No. Amaericans hav 2 or 3 better d.

even the breakaway?

Yes. What is the point of a tall goaltender if he can't cover the entire bottom of the net.

 

[EK47]

the Czech posters are being really levelheaded in this thread. A few people could take a page from their book.

Really good game. Very even. Shaky goaltending, at both ends, though, but more the Czech. Refs didnt give anyone the win, I dont want to imagine the amount of bitter delusion in someone who thinks otherwise.

Glad I woke up early, it was a beauty. Nice to see the Swedes shake their emotions and really come to life in the third. 50 really strong minutes from the Czechs and they were still trying right until the end.

I mean.. Czech and Slovak posters are usually the most levelheaded posters on here.

No. Amaericans hav 2 or 3 better d.

Here I thought you would’ve tired yourself out with your takes at this point, but no..

So I guess this is where I tell you what I learned - my conclusion, right? Well, my conclusion is: Hate is baggage. Life's too short to be pissed off all the time.

Apparently he has not been on ice for a goal against and is +11 in this tournament

 

[illone84]

You don't want to do the job yourselves?

Hahahaha beating Sweden twice at home in a single tournie and for gold? Ouch. Can't see it happening. US has a much better chance

 

[Swipes]

Congrats to Sweden. Good luck in the final.

 

[illone84]

Congratulations to Sweden!
