GDT: Latvia vs Sweden @ 12:30pm PT/ 3:30 ET/ 9:30pm CEST

[Jukurit]

Latvia seems like a very well coached team.

 

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

If Sweden took the puck to the net more like 4 did on that rush, they'd have a better chance at scoring.

 

[Breakers]

Latvia seems like a very well coached team.

And Sweden looks like one of the worst coached

 

[jj cale]

Button roasting this Swedish team, total contempt.

 

[Statsy]

I thought this game was over but I forgot how bad Sweden was.

 

[BradMarchandismydad]

This Swedish team is pretty awful. What a terrible powerplay

 

[Rygu]

 

[GKJ]

Major penalty killed off!

Button roasting this Swedish team, total contempt.

he picked them to win gold lol before tournament

 

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

Great kill.

 

[jj cale]

Total horseshit from Sweden, awful, it's like they don't even care,

he picked them to win gold lol before tournament

Oh I know.

 

[theslatcher]

Montén's post game interview about to be how Sweden was the underdog.

 

[Big L]

So that was a 5 min major to Latvia, but the boarding by Sweden in the first wasn’t? Seems legit. SMH

 

[TheBeastCoast]

That was a soft major penalty but well killed off by Sweden. Latvia is an exciting team to watch. Play with lots of fire.

Roasting a team that had been humming along at 50% on the PP. Credit to the Latvians. Button is very concerned the Swedes are going to make him look bad.

 

[Prntscrn]

Good effort on the powerplay

Please lose so we kan get Lekkerimäki and Öhgren back home, would be nice to stick it to Monten too

 

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

he picked them to win gold lol before tournament

He has to have money on them.

Dude sounds like hes about to leave the broadcast booth at any moment and go down there and coach sweden himself.

That's a big part of it for sure.

 

[Hinterland]

Doesn't matter, it's a hit to the head which is not allowed under IIHF rules.

Yeah again. It would be a stupid sport if you can just lower your head as far down as possible and skate across the ice to then complain when you get hit. Gotta keep your head up. Hockey 101. Keep your friggen head up.

 

[bottomofthefoodchain]

This is without a doubt the worst Swedish junior team I've ever seen

Don't know his gambling habits but he's awfully invested in this

 

[LKI]

Either a great kill or terrible pp. Was that 1 shot on goal in 5minutes?

 

[Statsy]

Total horseshit from Sweden, awful, it's like they don't even care,


Oh I know.

I think they care, but they look like a team with no answers... and not nearly enough talent.

yea that or hes mad there making him look bad since he was on national tv picking them to win gold and may not even make the medal games lol.

I offer you Halifax 2002/03. I was there for every painstaking game.. Try and find those games somewhere and it will give awful a new meaning. Worst team in their entire u20 history.
