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

[Hockeyfrilla]

3-5 kill me

 

[YourAverageFan*]

Uh oh

 

[Hemsky001]

Wow,

Swedes are pathetic.

 

[tobu]

The choke is still on!?

 

[snipes]

Game on.

 

[jcbio11]

Yes baby! Nice pressure and a goal! 3 - 5 now.

 

[EMeduza]

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

You're right. It's the blend of V and V that confuses me.

 

[Kamzik]

hard to believe that was Ruzicka's first point, as he has been part of some great plays this tournament.

 

[Fossy21]

So much for that!

You're right. It's the blend of V and V that confuses me.

Yeah, accents can be confusing as ****. I often mishear some Värmlänningar as Östgötar until they use ö instead of y and **** like that.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Yesssssssss

 

[snipes]

Beauty shot.

 

[Canada4Gold]

That's a backbreaker

 

[Team Cozens]

Nylander has been so dominating this tournament, but we can not count with him playing as a God in every game going forward. Him, Grundström and Kylington swedens standout players in this tournament.

Asplund has been the most impressive player to me. A complete player who has been fantactic postionally and 70% from the dot. Oh and 3 assists today. Now that its 5-3 he will see a ton of ice time.

 

[jcbio11]

Snipe by that dude. Nice.

 

[KalmarKnights]

What a shot!

 

[bottomofthefoodchain]

4th line saving us

Finally Pettersson showing his hands

 

[Team Cozens]

4th line saving us

Finally Pettersson showing his hands

The first 2 lines have been great... so the 3rd line must be horrible

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Grunstrom!!

Edit: Lias

 

[Spender]

This must be it.

 

[canucks20]

Huska looka lost in net

 

[Apotheosis]

God, I love that Grundstrom as a Leafs prospect. Size, skill, grit and good hands. Parks himself in front of that net and get goals from anywhere.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Think Andersson skated through the crease when the puck was behind the net 5 seconds or so before that goal, I mean they almost always call that. Not that 1 more goal matters

 

[snipes]

So much skill on this Swedish team.

 

[Kamzik]

This has kinda been a sloppy game

 

[YakDavid]

Think Andersson skated through the crease when the puck was behind the net 5 seconds or so before that goal, I mean they almost always call that. Not that 1 more goal matters

what is the exact rule on that
