GDT: Group A - May 17 - Russia (4) vs. Sweden (1)

[lakers11]

Both look awful. Nykwist ("W" with as sharp v as you can possibly pronounce). You can't pronounce "y" like "ai" or "u".

"Y" like the "y" in Burakovsky. Or, like saying the Russian "i" with round lips.

I think in russia they pronounce uu as y. 2 uu's together


Might be wrong

Ovie is PPG in playoffs

stats is not everything

 

[Antonglk]

Interesting that if this game ends with Russia victory then Sweden will play Canada in St Petersburg, Russia will play Germany in Moscow, Finland vs Germany and Czech vs USA. It is irony, Czech won the group and play team US and can really lose that game

Yep this one

Question to Sweden guys, how to properly pronounce Nyquist? naikwist or nu:kwist?

"Y" is a different front-vowel than "I" (written in english as -ee-) and is pronounced with rounded lips.

Nykvist, Nyqvist or Nyquist are just spelling variants as they are all pronounced the same.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOALL!
















just kidding, who the **** cares. this game is already over.

 

[Antonglk]

Good shot. But it looks like Bobrovsky reaction was a bit slow.

I tried that and scared the hell out of my cat here.

Maybe it's the melody and the sound of the Swedish language that caused the shock
Dare not to try anything in Danish or your cat might choke on a fur-ball.

Aren't Danish and Swedish very similar to each other? From what I heard these two languages (Norwegian too) sound so alike?

According to Bron/Broen tv show this is right. Both languages are similar.

Norweigan and Swedish sounds similar to echother when speaking but danish and swedish can understand if we speak slow...

Norwegian and Danish writing is the same.

anton lindholm is really good

That is to be expected of Scandinavian languages.

why is jimme the captain? he plays with no intensity and never finish his checks.

backlund should be the captain.

Swedish and Norwegian is melodic, whereas most of Danish dialects uses "stød" (kind of glottal stop), that for many people sounds like we are speaking very "flat" (non-melodic) and slurred (with a potato in the mouth).

Written Danish and Norwegian are very similar and Swedish is only marginally different (but with some tricky words that looks and sounds the same, but with different meanings).

In standard forms speakers from the three countries can understand each other with some traning (with dialects it's much more difficult).

 

[Kshahdoo]

NHL scouts will notice Telegin and Lyubimov. I think.

 

[Antonglk]

Third period is boring as hell

backlund should be the captain.

He is useless, he literally in every championships, I don't know what so good about him but the coach seems to be like him very much

glad to know MÃ¥rts is leaving.

Third period is boring as hell

One team can't play, the other doesn't want.

 

[habsrule4eva3089]

Canada has such an easy road to the final now.

Avoiding Finland and Russia.

This is a 3 horse race with those two and Canada.

Should be a fun road to the final and the Finland Russia game will be amazing.

It's because NHLers don't wanna play...

See you in finals, Sweden
