WC: Team Sweden roster 2022

Garpenlöv is perhaps the most incompetent, arrogant, dumbest coach I've ever witnessed at this level. Everything is off and I completely understand why so many NHL players declined to play for him. Which team can win with him in the booth? Which have won with him? None, because he's never been the head coach before in his entire life.

And it has really showed. I want the media to pressure how the hell they decided to hire this clown because it's pathetic.

Is your new head coach announced already? You could have Lauri Marjamäki if you want
Oh no, please don’t give the federation this suggestion as they seem to have a faiblesse for bad coaches. What they don’t know is that they have actually hired a good one in Sam Hallam.
 
I just wondering what the federation thinks for the past year ? the quality of Tre Kronos has gone down hill and they just sat and do nothing, and what I know were they always said they have faith in Garpenlöv.
 
The Garpenlöv nightmare is over now. We are free guys. The good thing about the loss is that we never have to see his face behind the bench ever again. The loss hurts but I still feel relief that it's finally over.
 
Tells it all about time with Garpenlöv that it ended the way it did. Happy for you guys for it, but not happy you lest the QF.

They had an evaluation after last Worlds.

Their results? "It was the players coming in during the tournament's fault." Absolute joke.

Also: Viasat with a spineless interview with Garpen.

Such a shame you lost like you did. But on the flip side, WJC is just a few months away! Wish you better luck there!

Any questions regarding PP to Garpen in post game interview?

Haven't kept count but how many goals did we score on how many opportunities facing top opponents? E.g. Finland, USA, Canada?

NOTHING at all. Granqvist is a complete coward. Renberg was angry last year Garpenlöv got defensive and almost pissed his pants.

32 minutes of penalties gave 2 goals against, can, fin ,cze and us.

Some of those minutes might have been even strength, I am too lazy to check.

and Wikigård will tear him down, Viaplay is more ass liking TV.
They really like ass.
If Wikegård was in the studio I’m not even sure Garpenlöv would get out of there without getting punched. So its probably a good thing.

No, but seriously, I'm quite excited what Hallam can do with the national team and I think alot more NHL players will have respect for him and his style. Hallam was one of three coaches I absolutely wanted to see next. I had Berglund (Luleå), Hallam (Färjestad) or Rönnberg (Frölunda) as favourable replacements, they all play the high, up tempo, no nonsense game and responsibility all over the ice. To always be in the face of the opposition, shut down the lanes and take it from there.

Instead Garpenlöv played the f***ing Finnish hedgehog, in the 2nd period! I mean, wtf was he doing? The Benny Hill show era in Swedish hockey is finally over.

Hallam coached Växjö.

Aha, sorry about that, that's how much I care about the SHL. Still, he's a f***ing coach with experience, how about that for a change within the shit federation?

Anyhow, when asked what he's going to do next, Garpen answers: "I'm going to bury my dad." Yeah, that's exactly what I would expect. He wasn't even there. He was so awful I think if he was replaced with a basketball and a cap on the ball on a chair, the team would've performed better.
 
If things dont go better with Hallam is time to understand we are not good anymore.
Do you even realize that with a qualified coach, Sweden would not lose three zeros twice and would win those matches? They still belong to the top, but now they are stagnating in a terrible way in terms of coaching. If this problem stops, they will win.
 
WHC doesn't matter too much. I count junior success as well. Sweden has done great.. snd don't forget Sweden won b2b gold in 2018 and 2019.
WHC matters because we dont have best on best anymore. And its not like Sweden would stand a chance in a best on best against the powerhouses Canada, USA, Finland and Russia. So WHC matters even more, bigger chance to get sucess in WHC.

U18 is just kids. If you look up, Sweden hade not had sucess in long time in U20 WJC.
