GDT: United States vs. Sweden 5:05PM Torino; 11:05AM Eastern

I agree on Ronnie Sundin, he is a danger for everyone involved. Both US and Sweden.

Playing without helmet in Olympics is a 2 min penalty.

Thankfully Havelid can have his resurrection soon and bounce Ronnie off the roster

Some of these Olympic rules are just ridiculous. You can't play the puck without your helmet? Why?

its intrenational rules and should be obvious: to prevent injury. duh

Ronnie Sundin did what he had to, he made a mistake and took a penalty.

It was a cheapshot.

It's for the safety of the players. If a player without helmet storms on goal, you have to hit him. And that's very unfortunate if you don't have your helmet on.

What a girlie rule. Real men play without helmets.

As a Bruins fan, I breathed a sigh of relief when I saw the Swede on the breakaway was PJ Axelsson. That guy ay be Scandinavian, but he has no Finnish.

[norrisnick]

Sweet Jeebus can pucks please stop hitting Lidstrom in the face?

That's three cuts thus far this season. All around the eyes too.

 

[GuloGulo]

That's ****ing cheap. The Swede intentionally pushed the net off when the US got a chance.

Intentional my ***. Lundqvist and his skate touched together and he lost balance.

About time the refs call something in our favor...

Did they get a penalty for that??

 

[Big Daddy]

You need helmets when your playing the Euros, funny that was about the same time the NHL put the helmet rule in effect when you guys came on the scene. Why can't your players control their elbows and sticks?

 

[MartinFr]

About time the refs call something in our favor...

HAHAHAHAHA

Do you even watch the game?

 

[norrisnick]

Holy crap ANOTHER long 5 on 3.

That one very obvious tho.

 

[acr*]

More stupidity from the Swedish players. lol. 5-on-3 for like 1:55

 

[Jori]

Another 5 on 3...gotta get one here!

 

[Chimpradamus]

This is a joke. A pure joke. Zetterberg was hooked, but he didn't take a dive like the Americans.
