GDT: Gold Medal Game - May 21 - Canada vs Sweden

[TheBeastCoast]

What was the listed start time for this game? I thought it was half past lol

 

[Frank the Tank]

I debated wether I should call Vlasic a elite defenseman or not, I decided that he IMO has been but isn't and that Parayko isn't yet, but he is well on his way.

I still think Canada will win though the scoring depth is too much.

Vlasic played in the top-4 for Canada's last two best-on-best championship teams. He's an elite defenseman.

Tre Kronor has to play their best hockey today, or else this tournament will end with a silver medal. They need to play way better than they have done so far, which I am not sure that they are able to do.

Sweden usually adopt to their opponents very well but the first period may be scary if Canada goes full throttle from start, we have to be ready.

Vlasic is a fantastic defensive defenseman

Nice pace to start off.

If you missed it the first 500 times TSN has said it: Marner and Nylander are playing in this game.

 

[Rick74*]

So I've got nylander versus marner?

I'm torn and really the leafs win either way.

Actually the Leafs aren't playing today so they don't win anything.

Joel Lundqvist is on fire!

It was amazing what Doughty accomplished​ in Sochi when he felt free to roam because Vlasic was anchoring their defensive pair.

Joel Lundqvist is on fire!

He's empowered by playing in front of his brother.

Weird how they're talking up two of the best players involved in the game who happen to play on the same team (the one with the most fans in the league). What a valid complaint

 

[Irishguy42]

Good pace so far.

 

[21]

An open back and forth game so far.

Sweden pp now, great

Bad pass back to D by Scheifele....did the same yesterday. Gonna get burned on that yet.

 

[KalmarKnights]

Refs diving.

 

[Irishguy42]

Take a shot every time TSN mentions A) Marner/Nylander playing against each other or B) Hank and Joel playing together for the first time in 12 years.

I love Nylander but he needs to **** off.
