Since they gave Canada a perk....they should allow for the US team to bus in Lindgren
Why give Canada another perk?

Blame it on Fox....he won't play with anybody else . FWIW....I hope Fox does not get hurt in the Canada game . Some fast moving guys out there and he won't get many sheltered shifts and I can see team Canada taking advantage of his size/speed on their dumps for when they don't skate around him .Why give Canada another perk?

No idea....he does not get talked about very much on the Canadian hockey channels ...at least not like HF LOL....kind of like Fox.....he does not get mentioned very much either as I would not even have known he was demoted from the PP in that first game and lost a partner until I read it here . Who will they find to play with him today . I think Makar is under the weather ....that is not good either if they have the flu running through them . It seems like every second person in Canada has some sort of cold/flu these days .Kakko scratched for this one too?
Bird flu? Came from a penguin? Crosby?No idea....he does not get talked about very much on the Canadian hockey channels ...at least not like HF LOL....kind of like Fox.....he does not get mentioned very much either as I would not even have known he was demoted from the PP in that first game and lost a partner until I read it here .

I read KK was expected to play today on Twitter.Kakko scratched for this one too?
It could be rabies.....gotta watch the damn Foxes LOL.....Bird flu? Came from a penguin? Crosby?
Flip a coin . It should be a great game . They hate one another too . I sometimes wonder if both these teams were better 15- 20 yrs ago or have lesser stars but more talent spread across the roster ?I read KK was expected to play today on Twitter.
Who is favored in this game? I feel like Finland may have the better forwards while Sweden has the better defense.
Well, since he's playing, I think Sweden will win.I read KK was expected to play today on Twitter.

It is interesting that two countries that are not thought of as aggressive as some other countries have that kind of animosity towards each other.It could be rabies.....gotta watch the damn Foxes LOL.....

In the expected lineups they showed him on the 4th line but things can change.Well, since he's playing, I think Sweden will win.

I know Walt...but who was Claude ? Keith ? /C Lemieux ?Brady and Bennett should square up to open the game like Big Walt and Claude back in the day. I know Tkachuk is game but Bennett usually shies away from the punches.
I know Walt...but who was Claude ? Keith ? /C Lemieux ?
LOL....That's what I thought . A couple of warriors . Lemieux should be in the HHoF . He was a playoff all time great for his teams . I hated him....but he came to play .
I hear ya on Marchand.....If we are going to rent one more guy for the playoffs now that we have Miller.....he would be my guy . It would be an expensive rental ....very expensive like an Othmann to start with .Yes great villains like Claude are good for the league. He is a Hall of Famer in my book. Marchand is similar. Definite hall of famer to me.
So....a Sweden win today would make for a better tournament game versus the US if Canada beats the US today ? Is there a chance that Sweden could still make the Finals ?

2 proud countries, that's the type of fight both need right now. It means something. Canada needs this one imo. I think they get knocked out of the medal game with a loss.
