GDT: May 6 • Sweden vs. Canada

[Subban signed e5]

Should be a good game, by far the biggest challenge for Canada so far.

 

[Neiler]

Moller with an incredible 4 goal game in a losing effort as Canada takes it 5-4.

I went to Sweden once. I got bumped into on the streets a lot and they had weird bread. DOWN WITH SWEDEN!

200-0 for Canada.

We will break your backs like crisp bread. We will knäcka er!

Lander > Crosby

Lets do this. Meatballs always triumph canadian gooses.

As an Oilers fan, imagine if this was true. Our center depth would be insane:

McDavid
Lander
RNH
Draisaitl

It would be like the days when the Oilers featured Gretzky and Messier down the middle.

Moller with an incredible 4 goal game in a losing effort as Canada takes it 5-4.

I wish I was Oscar Moller's weiner. That is what I truly wish to be.
Because if I was Oscar Moller's weiner, everyone would be in love with me.

Wish you luck Sweden, you're going to need it

 

[doug88]

Looking forward to this one! Should be a great game.

 

[stempniaksen]

5-3 Canada. Should be a tough test though, the Canadian team needs to be ready.

On swedish TV they said that:

Swedish teams total salary (in their respective clubs) = 24 million dollar

Canadas = 90 million dollars

An NHL team is between 50 to 65 million dollars or something like that ?

Lander vs Crosby is one of the greatest rivalries in sports, always love when they meet.

I would say that the teams are a lot closer in skill level than their individual paychqs would indicate.

Canada's Sochi team was 150 million+

 

[Pominville Knows]

We gonna mop the ice with you guys.

 

[luongo321]

I kinda wish the Sedins were there to make Canada their ***** on the big ice. Having said that, Go Canada Go!

 

[KaraLupin]

Huge rumor going around that Lander has put a picture of Crosby up in the lockerroom, and he is throwing darts at it.

hahaha, omg. No offense, but it should probably be hall and duchene.

 

[JackHughes86]

is this game on tv?

 

[m4tt145]

Nilsson in net. Good choice.

 

[Canuckistani]

It's safe to say that the winner of this game takes top spot in the group. A whole lot of sub-par matches after this until the QF.

Canada 5-3

 

[vippe]

At work during this game... hopefully I get to watch the game... but expecting something with Kardashians to be on :<

 

[Eye of Ra]

I have always liked Lander.

 

[OF17]

Classic thread with the Lander/Crosby

Anyone have a reliable stream of this one?

EDIT: "Lander" is Swedish for "Crosby killer." True story.

 

[Beerfish]

If Canada loses I am burning down the nearest ikea store. All that wood......all that nice dryyy wood.
