Tre Kronor hoppas på drömförstärkning – William Nylander kan komma till VM

TAMMERFORS. Ett besked från William Nylander, 26, kommer inom kort. Det meddelade Johan Garpenlöv efter dagens matchvärmning. – Vi har haft kontakt, och jag vän

I am a bit surprised that they held a spot for some one of Peterson's level. Is the team sorely lacking his mold of a player?

What is his "mold"? Know nothing about him and that can't be good.

Happy that Grundström joined. Hope he can play tonight. He will battle hard, take the puck to the net, create traffic and be a nuisance. Good skater, terrific attitude and not without skill.
 
I'd be kind of disappointed to have waited this long for an NHL player and get a guy who scored little over 10 points. I don't see whjy someone from Europe couldn't have filled that spot. Definitely got on the team because he played NHL, no matter how good they did there. I get that Garpenlöv is desperate but..

I'm disappointed that Elmer Söderblom didn't make the cut. But, WHC is a big stage and understandable if they thought they needed someone more experienced.

I mean you are right and all but the first center last game was Joel Kellman. Nothing against him but he is not really #1 center material at this level. He is better than expected overall though.

Yeah, good 1st line centers don't grow on trees. Sweden has done extremely well so far though.

Considering the roster its Well above my expectations so far. Having wallmark out will really hurt the PP tonight though. He’s far and away the best center.

I wouldn't consider 17 a little over 10 as it's closer to 20 than it is 10, he scored at just over a .25ppg pace.

But semantics aside, I'm pretty confident in saying his point total doesn't reflect him as a player. He played under a Bowness led Stars team which suffocated all offense while he ended up with a 4th liners ATOI, so not bad production for his deployment, and for people loving per 60 stats: his goals per 60 ranked 3rd on Dallas.

He got praise for his play during the playoffs(esp. g7) and people wanted Bowness to have played him more, he played in a very limited 4th line role the games he did play.

We only have 1 natural skilled center and that is Wallmark. And seems like he is injured. Jacob Peterson is said to be a very skilled player.
 
Considering what has happened on the ice it's quite obvious Finland has a clear home ice advantage when it comes to the refs. Just saying. There's some blatant calls being ignored so far. Finland doesn't want to be on the PK and neither do the refs. Especially considering what the Swedish team ended up in the box for. Cross check to the face? Naaah. It's fine.

I'm talking about this game and this atmosphere. There will be questions when you make weak calls against one team and ignore blatant penalties for the other team. I'm listening to the neutral NA commentators and it becomes quite obvious from what they observe.

Yes but the reffing thing has shown in the previous games as well

They cannot catch up in modern hockey, everything is too fast for them, that much is determined. They need help from more observers.

And there's the "I'm sorry" call from the refs when I spoke of it. Even if it's obvious, it's still the "I'm sorry" call to the Swedish bench considering the level the refs have apparently set.
 
We dont need Nylander. Lets keep doing the grinding magic . 4 straight wins. Not even Czechia and Finns could stop us.
