How does that have any bearing on whether or not they're the best?

They are recruited out of one country not because of skill, but because of convenience for the league. They are not refereeing in the NHL because they are best. It is because they are the best Canadian (and some American) refs.
 
For the finns watching, That segment was really embarrasing. Why does Kunnas have to be a jerk?...
 
Swedes moral is so low right now - second period were brutal for them with the refs. Finns doing a good job in the third shutting them down.

Unfortunately, the refs had a hand in deciding more than a few games throughout this tournament.
They'll need to change the hit-to-the-head rule if players are going to continue to embellish contact with head-snaps.
This isn't soccer.
 
Difference of Swedes and Russia. Rus based on comeback possiblity. Swedes system too perfect for these things to be based. This is Coachs failure of Sweden
 
If Sweden gonna pull this of it thanks to Timachov by far the best Swedish player (dont count in the goalkeeper now)
 
How much time left? The iihf live scoreboard doesn't have a game clock.
 
In the few games I've seen Sweden play in this tournament, Timashov has been really impressive. One of the best guys out there in this game, IMO.
