Very sneaky and a lot of trickery being used in that last post like so many posts have contained here to try to brush off what is going on in the Swedish hockey culture with the victims mentality these days, please provide me "evidence"
Smoke and mirrors, I can't believe anyone would buy this except over the top homers.
Well now it would be pretty ****in hard and tedious to go through all the threads here over the years that contain posts where swedish posters brought up that Neidermayer-Forsberg incident,that would take some incredible amount of time and work wouldn't it? anything else you would like the guy to do?..........cure cancer in the next 15 minutes?
But To have all the evidence you need to know he's bang on is to just have hanged around here for a few years and actually followed numerous threads where canada and sweden in hockey have been discussed and in gdts in international games involving those two teams and you would have all the evidence required. We know they keep bringing this up because we have seen them do it with regularity over the years, we remember it.
And I can't help but laugh when it is said it is only brought up when it is relevant, relevant to who? Swedish fans? See, thats the thing, anything can be and is used to justify bringing up that incident as relevant. Sweden get's a couple of penalties they aren't happy with? it's relevant to bring it up. One of their players takes a hard hit by a canadian player? it's relevant to bring it up Sweden loses the game against canada? it's relevant, some Canadian players happens to pass gas on the ice? it's relevant.
The fact that something like that which happened ages ago keeps being brought up tells a person all they need to know about the mindset. Of course only when it is "relevant" Funny though, it seems to be relevant oh so often!!
And thats the point, they won't give it up no matter the passage of time or regardless of whether their own players have delivered questionable hits of their own over time(which they have) There are no angels in international hockey but to listen to them you would think Sweden is and everyone else,especially Canada, is dirty and bad and has done them wrong.
They've been cheated..................of course.
I don't know what to tell ya, the fans think they have been cheated left and right, they've got former players brought in as analysts who before big games are talking about how the team sweden will be facing are capable of diving and cheating to try to win hockey games, you've got their young stars like dahlin whining after a game about how the other team dived and guys throwing their silver medal into the stands because they are a sore loser, you've got the media blowing smoke all over the place about how Sweden was cheated. The whole hockey culture is just infected with this ****.
It doesn't look good on them, they gotta get rid of it.
