GDT: Sweden (8) vs. Slovakia (3) • Quarterfinals • Jan. 2

[Kamzik]

That save on Ruzicka doe. Couldn't easily be 5-3.

 

[Nordic*]

Sweden is ALWAYS so predictable.

Get a few goals lead.

Think you're "the shiat".

Fall asleep.

Let the other team get a couple of easy goals.



Never fails.

If the period would continue another 5 minutes it would end 5-4. Needed that break.

 

[Scotty B]

What is happening? Slovaks are basically just throwing pucks towards the goal and scores. 5-2

Sandstrom , or whatever his name is, may have just prevented a Swede meltdown...sure SVK had some puck-luck , BUT score should be 5-3

 

[PlamsUnlimited]

Sweden always does this

 

[tobu]

The mental game is such a factor at this age group.

 

[snipes]

Junior hockey is awesome.

 

[Appleyard]

That save on Ruzicka doe. Couldn't easily be 5-3.

He probably has three of the best five saves of the tournament so far...

wrap-around vs Denmark.
one-timer from slot vs Finland.
that one just there.

Sandstrom , or whatever his name is, may have just prevented a Swede meltdown...sure SVK had some puck-luck , BUT score should be 5-3

or 9-3 sweden. Two posts and loads of chanses

 

[Prntscrn]

Feels like Asplund has been part of every goal

 

[Fossy21]

Sandstrom , or whatever his name is, may have just prevented a Swede meltdown...sure SVK had some puck-luck , BUT score should be 5-3

By that logic it should be 15-3

Huska one of the players of the game so far.

Who's "Luca"?

I don't know, but I've heard he lives on the second floor.

Swedes are mental midgets at all levels.

Who is the östgöte on tv12? Horrible accent

Who is the östgöte on tv12? Horrible accent

Says somebody from Stockholm.

Who is the östgöte on tv12? Horrible accent

That's Harald Lückner, and it's Värmländska (commonly voted in the top 3 sexiest Swedish accents for some reasons, when it's worse than östgötska and most who speak it have a much heavier accent nowadays since östgötar took the hint ).

Actually, it might be more Västgötska, but same difference.

It doesn't sound one bit like västgötska and not like värmländska either. To me it sounds like östgötska.

Edit: okay i googled and he is from Mariestad so apparantly you are right.

 

[Prntscrn]

Dude Craig Button is jinxin us badly

 

[mjlee]

This is so bloody typical Sweden. If you had a team that combined the Swedes skill and coolness with Finnish sisu (this year excepted) you'd have one hell of a national team.

 

[jcbio11]

Do not go gently Slovak junior hockey team

 

[Fossy21]

It doesn't sound one bit like västgötska and not like värmländska either. To me it sounds like östgötska.

Trust me, I've heard all types of Östgötska. Västgötska and Värmländska both share elements with Östgötska which he may have combined, but as an amalgamation it's still much closer to both V and V than Ö. No reason he should speak Östgötska either, he was born in Mariestad (Västergötland, close to Värmland) and lived and played/coached in Karlstad from age 17 until age 43. He coached Linköping for like two months, don't believe he picked up Östgötska in that time, especially that heavy an accent.

This could turn into a game. Slovakia is opportunistic.
