GDT: Sweden (2) vs. Canada (5) • Semifinals • Jan. 4 • Part 3

[Quality Oil]

Was worried about this game, keeping up with USA will be a mountain to climb. Good luck to Sweden for the medal.

 

[Captain Bowie]

If Sweden had a 30 million population they would have won easily.

Haha what?

 

[trilobyte]

Them fans are phonies Booed Canada off ice vs Czechs lol USA will beat them watch and see

You're not really Brad Park, are you?

 

[Sens of Anarchy]

Complete collapse by the Swedes, Canada will not win against a vastly superior USA team.

That's what they said about the Swede team

40-0 in prelims...Sweden has NO EXCUSE to be trotting out excuses year after year.

 

[22Brad Park]

hart got it done. Good for him.

got nothing done...gold is tomorrow bud.

 

[Yatzhee]

Meh, Canada won, but Sweden wad the better team.
Nylander beats anything the Canadians are producing now a days.

 

[Blitzago*]

On paper it was a close game. Wouldn't call that choking.

On paper the score was 5-2

Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

 

[WayneSid9987]

Canada outshot Sweden 30 - 15 after the 1st period...

Not sure what all the whining was about...

Yep.
It was a clinic by Canada after Hart showed the boys he'd be there for them.

 

[Fossy21]

If you think not winning gold in the WJC will shut up Canadian hockey fans, well check our recent results...

In fairness, Bell Centre was half-empty in the quarter final and not even close to filled tonight, and it was rather silent until 3-2. If you're referring to these threads... it shouldn't be surprising as this forum attracts hardcore hockey fans.

Good luck to Canada in the finals! Haven't been particularly impressed by USA so far (against Latvia or Switzerland in particular, but that means almost nothing - they did have decent games against Canada and Russia, which suggests they might play to the level of their opponents). Should be a good game!

 

[Weast]

Haha what?

running out of excuses

 

[Muston Atthews]

I see the Swedish coach isn't smiling anymore

 

[PanniniClaus]

What an egg the Swedes laid. Nylander was creative but there was a whole lot of deer in the headlights.

Well 30 million against 5 is just not fair! How would they all fit on the ice?

Not even close.

And pretty sure McDavid>>>>>>>>>>>Nylander

 

[Killahpunk]

got nothing done...gold is tomorrow bud.

I meant for today and player of the game.

 

[JFG]

Ah well, congrats to Canada. The better team won.

Among many ridiculous statements in this thread, that is one of the top.

McDavid?

 

[SI90]

Chabot

The better team always allows 5 goals in an elimination game.

 

[4thlineduster]

Don't agree with Barzal, Cirelli no brainer and Chabot no brainer.

 

[KPower]

Sweden doesn't have a killer instinct.

Never have, never will.

 

[KingTux]

Well 30 million against 5 is just not fair! How would they all fit on the ice?

Ask the refs !
