Did that get tipped by EK65 ?

Ullmark five hole couldn’t be any more wide open

Doesn't look like it to me. At about 42-43 seconds in you can see him snap it beside and past Karlsson's stick and looks like it went straight through Ullmark's 5 hole.

5 hole

STRAIGHT

Boucher was a #10 pick in the 2021 draft. Dean Letouneau was a #25 pick. That 15 pick difference is a significant difference!

The difference amounts to their difference in points.

10 is better than 25, you're right.

But 3 points in 17 games is also better than 2 in 28.

He wasn't great yesterday but he wasn't horrible. I kind of hope Sweden loses tomorrow night so we don't have to risk seeing Ullmark getting hurt in the finals.

C'mon Ullmark, get those warm ups in and shake off the rust so when you're back in Ottawa you hit the ground running

Sounds like Sweden is going with Ersson tonight?

Good. Friedman said Ullmark but I wonder if they flipped it after Canada’s win. Meaningless game so it’s better for Ullmark not to risk injury.

Yeah that would make sense

really happy with this, ullmark got to shake off some rust and we werent put into a situation where we told him that he had to stay home

if he doesnt play tonight then he doesnt have to play until the 22nd. Considering how injured our time team is this is great

 

[Sun God Nika]

would have preferred if Ullmark played to get a little more conditioned but happy he spent this time practicing and played a little.

I wonder if its Ullmark not feeling well, or Ullmark having back issues again and the Sens told Sweden to hush it.

Most likely scenario like with those Edmonton players, Sens probs told team Sweden/Ullmark game doesn't mean shit and not to play.

 

[Senscore]

Oh my god what now

 

[Ouroboros]

This f***ing guy...

 

[DrEasy]

"Isn't feeling well" is concerning. Better be a bad taco.

 

[PlayOn]

Well Gus was sick so I guess he passed something on to him?

Idk but it’s always something. You just gotta hope the next 4 years don’t look like this one.

 

[Emerica]

Here i was, hoping to sit down after a hard day at work to watch our boy linus but no we can’t have nice things

 

[AchtzehnBaby]

Someone is waiting

 

[armani]

Merilainen is the best goalie prospect we have ever had, eye test, stats, both NHL and AHL performances scream a blue chip prospect who will become a legit NHL starter for this team.

Goalies are hard to predict, but this guy is it!

Did he get injured or tweak something coming in cold the last game? Hopefully it's just a slight flu and he's a nice guy and said why don't you play the 3rd goalie to give him the experience.

I think so

 

[Senovision]

Going into the tournament, Ersson was mostly expected to be the third goalie for the Swedes and not get any action. Part of the reason that he is starting is that Linus Ullmark wasn’t feeling well ahead of game time, but it’s unclear why Filip Gustavsson isn’t starting instead
