Klingberg and Wennberg to play?

 

[EK47]

Wennberg is in for Sweden, Markström will probably start. Klingberg will arrive on tuesday I think.

 

[Retroglyphs]

Team Norway 1 - Team Sweden 5

 

[Tomas W]

2nd hatrick by Lander coming in.

 

[theslatcher]

No Bratt today.

Anything confirmed re: Markstrom?

 

[EK47]

Anything confirmed re: Markstrom?

Not Who’s gonna start specifically but I believe it was said Lundqvist wont start today. And Markström was officially added to the roster yesterday so I would be very surprised if he doesn’t start.

 

[weklof]

Wennberg will play tonight, it hasn't been decided (or at least they didn't want to say) which line he plays in

The coaching staff did not want to answer who's in goal, but the write assumes, as everyone else, that Markström will start.

 

[Star Ocean]

Bratt is day to day. Give him 4-5 days off and he is ready for playoffs.

 

[EK47]

If they play like they did vs the Czechs there will be no playoffs for Sweden.

 

[Star Ocean]

Meh sweden is at worst 4th in this group.

 

[AdamParrot]

Who will be in net for Sweden?

 

[Phil McKraken]

If they play like they did vs the Czechs there will be no playoffs for Sweden.

Can we stop with these whiny "someone comfort me" posts already. Of course we'll make the playoffs.

 

[weklof]

Who will be in net for Sweden?

Nothing officially confirmed, but the insiders seem to think Markström

 

[EK47]

Can we stop with these whiny "someone comfort me" posts already. Of course we'll make the playoffs.

Not whining. Just pointing out that the play needs to get a lot better than it was against the Czechs than if we wanna be sure of beating Latvia. I’ve said this before they’re no joke, they are way better than they’ve been in the past.

We lost the first game against the Czechs, it happens. They can beat any team in the world. It doesn't mean we're not comfortably favourites against a team like freaking Latvia.

Do you remember the QFs last year?

Rooting for Norway in this one so that we can get past Sweden in the rankings

There’s a big difference between Latvia and teams like austria, italy, great brittain and even Norway. If you don’t give it your all they are going to keep it very tight. You need to be well prepared against them.

 

[Eye of Ra]

Do you remember the QFs last year?

yep we won as usual.

 

[aphyro]

Norge vs Sverige! I kinda want Norway to win this! just for the sake they can stay in the A group! but on the other hand i want Sweden to get a good seeding! It doesnt really matter if you wanna be the best you gotta take out the best! and the Norweigan got an Swede in their team so

 

[VictorLustig]

So Wennberg is centering the top line huh

 

[theslatcher]

So Wennberg is centering the top line huh

Now that's a mystery box.

 

[Star Ocean]

So Wennberg is centering the top line huh

I saw some chemistry in nylander and pettersson. Are they giving up already?

 

[VictorLustig]

And Pettersson is now on the wing...

Typical Sweden these days. Put all your skill on the wing.
