U18: Semi-Finals at the U18!

[vildurson]

Canada's game falling down right when I start to watch it. Should make an interesting third period if they survive with 2 goal diff only on this period.

Haven't had time to watch these games at all like until now so gonna try to make most of it

Too sad my Finns had bad tourney but oh well.

This draft is nightmare on defense. Rough one for Cam Allen’s draft tape.

I mean, Willander, Lidstein, even Lander are looking like solid players. The Canadians have done nothing to help resolve their draft stock and Allen's making his fall worse IMO.

And the Malmöit!

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Yeah, that's a penalty - can't get your hands up that high when you finish a hit. I thought it was his stick but that's pretty clearly his hands in ASP's face.

Of course but after ignoring 6 or 7 other infractions.

 

[Chainshot]

Feeling bad for Daigle. This ain't on him.

It was really obvious.

Stenberg is very impressive (not just the points, he's very noitceable every shift he takes).

5-2 Yikes

 

[WarriorofTime]

Unfortunate circumstances but this Daigle kid isn’t up for it imo.

 

[jj cale]

That looks like game folks.

 

[ORRFForever]

Typical...

As soon as I stand up for Team Canada, they start playing poorly and give up 3 unanswered. LOL.

 

[theslatcher]

Canada needs a timeout.

 

[Juxtaposer]

US-Sweden is going to be an incredibly fun game. Sweden has the best defense core in the tourney, so I’m extremely interested to see how they do against the Smith line.

Feeling bad for Daigle. This ain't on him.

It really isn't, he's been given scant support.

This is the first time I am seeing Willander play. Sweden apparently has some interesting prospects for the end of first round available. Willander, Stenberg, Dower-Nilsson etc all look like they could be around end of first/beginning of second.

For Canada, sure. I think it's safe to say SWE has the 3 best D's playing in this game with ASP, Lindstein and Willander.

Dragicevic has soooo much work to do defensively if he wants to be a NHLer.

 

[Pazucha]

The Swedes all look the same.. And all their names sound similiar. Its like watching team of clones play hockey.

 

[ORRFForever]

Unfortunate circumstances but this Daigle kid isn’t up for it imo.

Yes, he is all over the place but has he given up a "bad" goal?

I am truly asking - I can't remember.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

It was really obvious.

That's what happens when you ignore multiple infractions. Then there is one like puck over glass that they have to call..

 

[theslatcher]

The hell is Canada doing?

 

[Chainshot]

Yes, he is all over the place but has he given up a "bad" goal?

I am truly asking - I can't remember.

No, he's not. This isn't on him at all.

 

[theslatcher]

And Stenberg again!

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Stenberg again. Sheesh.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

And becuse they ignore 2 obvious trips Sweden gets a goal.

 

[Chainshot]

Enstrom goes one-on-everyone and still manages to find open space to play the puck and the Swedes convert.

 

[Realgud]

Another beautiful goal from the Swedes
