GDT: Sweden (2) vs. Canada (5) • Semifinals • Jan. 4 • Part 2

[Bourdon]

Look at the crowd. Hahaha... like religious fanatics.

Well, yeah, we love hockey. It's like baseball or football for Americans. It's like...what, upside down cricket for Australians?

 

[Territory]

Dahlin gets a shift, looks great, draws a penalty, hasn't played since.

 

[Daeni10]

He was releasing as the whistle went, that's not that late.

I mean I am sure he could have hold onto it but I've seen worse

 

[mark3361]

Strome looks like he will have a big nhl career, his hands, stickwork, and size package is perfect for the NHL.

He might not impress much in fast paced games like the world juniors, but in the NHL, slowed down he will have a big career.

Good luck with that...He cant skate. One goal doesnt change that

 

[Weast]

Another Canadian emulates Christiano Ronaldo.

Yup. Stromes blistering shot can only be compared to that of Ronaldo

 

[irunthepeg]

Another Canadian emulates Christiano Ronaldo.

Hahaha because Jost refused to retaliate and be the one going to the box?

 

[Tripod]

How is that not called?

Scoreboard and time left on the clock

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Are Swedes still crying about the refs?

 

[Leafs27]

There are the refs....not calling a penalty on Swe.

It goes both ways folks

Thank you. Pretty sure every team in every game has gotten screwed in some way. It all evens out.

 

[Muston Atthews]

Dahlin gets a shift, looks great, draws a penalty, hasn't played since.

At least the coach has a great smile!

 

[Fossy21]

First goal: Swede going for a clear breakaway. Stick held. Canada goes the other way and scores not twenty seconds later.
Second goal: Chabot dive. Canada score right afterwards.
Third goal: Gauthier pushes Sandström's pad from the post along with the puck. Officials don't even review it.
Fourth goal: Holding called after the puck is already lost by means of a poke-check. The only thing the "hold" did was prevent crashing into the goalie. Canada score right away.

Now, the refs have been **** both ways, Canada has played better overall and just capitalised on the mistakes of the ref whereas Sweden has capitalised on mistakes by the opposing goalie, but this is ridiculous.

 

[TimeZone]

What a play by Juulsen there.

 

[trilobyte]

Sweden fans have zero reason to blame the refs. The refs have let a lot go.

Yep. Both ways.

 

[Blitzago*]

Another solid play by Juulsen

 

[bigdog16]

Jost made himself look pretty soft trying to sell that

 

[Master P]

Cane we just lock this thread? Its embarrassing.

 

[LeafingTheWay]

Swedes lose because of their own dumb decision not to play Dahlin more.

 

[CanadaIsIrrelevant]

Sweden sucks

 

[McRpro]

Sweden's coach:

[nucks88]

Who is reffing?

Prime Minister Trudeau and Don Cherry apparently

 

[Quality Oil]

Selfish play by Gunnarsson. Sweden get away with two obvious penalties after they draw a penalty for diving.

 

[fredligh]

Can't wait to see Kylington get unfairly ripped to shreds for that penalty now

Um what it was a great defensive play. He couldnt know the ref was going full ******

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

The Canada D was exhausted there, good thing they got a change.

 

[Jackpot Jaret]

Wow. That Swedish puck bounce that went around the net, was a huge save by Hart, if Sweden scored shorthanded there and made it 4-3 that wouldn't have been good at all

 

[Noble]

Juulsen is having a great showing tonight
