GDT: Quarterfinal - May 18 - Switzerland (1) vs Sweden (3)

[bDtKarlsson]

Why don't sweden get more powerplays? I mean they have been the controlling team in almost every game but they always get more boxplay minutes than their opponents.

 

[jfc64]

1-1 Ekman-Larsson (5.500.000.000$) assisted by Henrik Lundqvist (8.500.000.00$) - A real classy goal in own crease.

You know Sweden will have three times more penalties than the opposition while controlling the game. It's just the IIHF way.

 

[QnebO]

So undeserved. Why can't we ever have some luck?

You used it late 90s and early 00s against the Finns.

1-1 Ekman-Larsson (6.250.000.000$) assisted by Henrik Lundqvist (8.750.000.00$) - A real classy goal in own crease.

What could Lundqvist have done there? There's no way it was his fault. It was 100% on OEL.

End Of Leasing date full for olivers stick after that goal

 

[LiveeviL]

Down in the right offensive corner with the puck, be alone, lose puck, let opposing team attack, rinse, repeat.

 

[bDtKarlsson]

And of course switzerland has the mental edge now after that garbage goal. Sweden is back to being unable to get the puck to the net and giving up turnovers.

Pfff, always has been and will be better than Finnish NT

Momentum in hockey is strangely strong. If i didint knew its not a game id blame ea for ice tilt.

 

[bDtKarlsson]

Summary:
- Sweden starts the period playing like they are going to win 7-0.
- OEL scores own goal
- Swiss bounces back and it will probably be a tight game all the way

 

[Finnswiss]

This game could be described as NLA vs. NHL. Though the NHL is the best league of the world, they have problems to beat the little Switzerland.
Hopp Schwiiz! Sorry Swedes. Ok the equalizer was bad luck for Sweden but Swiss can create scoring chances.

 

[VictorLustig]

Wikegård praising every single player who doesn't have much offensive talent....

 

[chokei]

Let's not forget that Haas beat the defender first and then never gave up on the play before OEL deflected the puck into his own net. Lucky sure but also earned.

 

[Brun0]

This team sweden is nothing special either...

 

[jfc64]

maybe kick the puck out!
stand up!
be cool as there were no cheese near!
blame oel!

 

[bDtKarlsson]

On paper or how they are playing?

 

[Deen]

Put $20 on the Swiss. Looking good so far

 

[LiveeviL]

OEL passive again, he is not playing well now.

 

[Brun0]

On paper or how they are playing?

Paper means nothing in ice hockey, wake up dude

 

[mosare]

The swiss have by far more speed than the swedens

 

[bDtKarlsson]

4 minutes? Did I miss something?

 

[Zybalto]

4 min for accidentally sticking someone while falling down just seems wrong.

 

[KalmarKnights]

Joke reffing.

 

[QnebO]

Swiss PP. Are they trying to win this?
