Fitta.... I just woke up to see this game I heard it was the game that had everything

 

[RobRayzor]

Atleast i get to enjoy playoffs. I dont like hartley and his goon tactics.

Haters gonna hate

 

[Nithoniniel]

To be fair, they have gone our way only once - in 2009, when we managed to win both Swedes and Swiss in close games. This goes in history just as yet another 'pretty loss'.

I know your pain. I'm a fan of several teams who specialize in that kind of pretty losses. At some point it gets tiring to talk about what could have been, about the 'if only'.

 

[Isola]

The sweatiest 3 point win ever.

 

[IceBjoern]

We shall return the favour atfer the USA -Sweden quaterfinal

I wouldn’t count on USA to beat us though, worst case for Sweden is playing Finland or Canada honestly.

It had a lot of bad for Sweden though.

 

[Mestaruus]

Latvian players always have a lot of heart and do upsets with weaker rosters. Lighter version of Finland.

 

[Canucks LB]

There is absolutely zero reason why Markstrom is not in the netbnext game.

Lundy Coming to this tournament has completely backfired on sweden, The worst thing that could happen.

Markstrom has been absolutely ridiculous this year for Vancouver, He is still very young, and extremely talented.

And what’s worse is if he does play next game it just happens to be against what..Russia?

If Jokiharju isn't counted as an NHLer for Finland it's 0 for Latvia.

Marky is playing against Russia. Already confirmed.

All we now need is some Kakko and some Laine with a little bit of Barkov sprinkled in and were golden

2/3, but yeah

Allways refreshing when a weaker team bring it to the table.

Yeah lundqvist was garbage today. He is still playing on his name.

Why vs Germany? The Germans couldn t be 1st or 2nd in their group.

You mean if Germany beats Finland and US beats Canada? It's possible, feels like a double longshot to me. But you're definitely right.

 

[BalticWarrior]

If Jokiharju isn't counted as an NHLer for Finland it's 0 for Latvia.

What? Why wouldnt you count Balcers or Bļugers as NHLers?

That swedish display with full nhlers is nothing to be proud of. Latvia had great game dont be bad winner.

 

[aphyro]

Hows sweden 100% Box play did Latvia break it?

 

[Nexon]

We shall return the favour atfer the USA -Sweden quaterfinal

I’m sure we lose to Swiss tomorrow just to allow Swedes to reach second place in group or even first.

3 NHL players

Forgot about Balcers but who else?

 

[Czechboy]

3 NHL players

If you were Czech you'd have 3 NHLers but bench 1 of them.lol I think that is a unique Czech thing.

 

[theslatcher]

What? Why wouldnt you count Balcers or Bļugers as NHLers?

Blugers played 28 NHL games, Balcers 36. Jokiharju played 38. Meaning everyone of them spent less than half the season in the NHL. Blugers is the worst one to make an argument for as he only played 28.

 

[BalticWarrior]

Forgot about Balcers but who else?

Bļugers, Merzļikins (didnt play, just signed a contract with CBJ and most likely will be the #1 starting the season)

 

[Nexon]

Haters gonna hate

And Latvia hates me when Swedes are not able to show some class after narrow win.
