GDT: Sweden vs. Canada | 12 February 2025 | 8:00 p.m. EST, 2:00 a.m. CET, 3:00 a.m. EET

[Hank Plank]

Think how good the team will be when McDavid gets going.

I don't like Edmonton so I won't be doing that.

 

[WiLBoY]

Cherish watching Crosby play. We won't get to for long

 

[NyQuil]

A 22 year old is the best Swedish player

Karlsson just looks 22.

 

[IceManCat]

Why are the fans so quiet lol

I was thinking the same thing, such a weird vibe

 

[matsqq]

Filip Gustavsson should have saved the last goal .

That's the one test he got

 

[PanniniClaus]

Marner must be playing hurt, he's been ineffective so far.

No... That's the way he plays in big games. We are used to it in Toronto. No way he sticks with McDavid.

 

[NyQuil]

McDavid wants to score so badly he almost did on Canada there

He saw a goalie in a red shirt.

 

[Turin]

Because Karlsson needs freedom, he's not a system player.

Karlsson was awesome his first 3 weeks in Pittsburgh. Then his game got robotic like the rest of the team.

It’s one thing to be a well oiled machine if you are good.. but if you are a middling team choking the creativity is the worst thing you can do.

 

[Coach Reggie Dunlop]

Man zibenajad has been horrible. Why the hell is he swedens top line center. That stone goal he easily could have made a play on stone but he just floated back there.

 

[Pancakes]

I know there's a lot of joking going on but I thought McDavid has for the most part looked dominant. He had a fantastic first.

 

[Senor Catface]

Too bad you tuned in after the first period.

It’s just the usual suspects saying the usual noise.

 

[TheDoldrums]

McDavid really dragging down Marner. Should have taken Tavares instead of 97

 

[CycloneSweep]

Now now, Crosby is no Jaromir Jagr.

Jagr might try and date our grand kids.

 

[wonton15]

I’ve been actively trying to watch Marner and I literally can’t see him out there

 

[IceManCat]

He saw a goalie in a red shirt.

He saw Bobrovsky again

 

[The Gr8 Dane]

I still think the boys aren't even playing very hard out there....

 

[LemonSauceD]

Is that McCrimmon LTIR shenanigans music I hear

 

[Canucks LB]

I’m gonna go with impressed and disappointed so far.

Impressed - Crosby, Raymond, ekholm
Disappointed - Ep40, Marner, Nylander

Also, mcdavid, stone, And ek jave been solid also.

Bratt has been honestly awful as well.

Still just two periods into the tournament, so things can change quick

 

[Coach Reggie Dunlop]

A 22 year old is the best Swedish player

That’s not surprising to anyone who has been watching him this year.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Kevin Bieksa, still has a punchable face. But hes a great tv guy.

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

1st star - Crosby

 

[MNRube]

Man, Karlsson looks great. And Nylander has to make a better effort there on Stone. Not surprised at all it was him and Zibs who were floating on the backcheck

 

[bov]

Marner looking useless out there, no effort at all. Haven't noticed half of Sweden's players for even a single play. Hedman had a rough start to the game but he's finding it a bit now. Hoping for a fun finish here, really expected more compete from Sweden overall.

 

[Mick Riddleton]

McDavid line has no chemistry, maybe insert Bennett next game. Two Panthers with McDavid should work better.

 

[Greatzsky 99]

too bad sid doesn't have any kids. he could've pulled a lebron at some point

yeah and Jagr, he could actually have played with his grandson, that would been a sight to behold
