GDT: U.S.A. vs Sweden @ 7pm PT/ 10pm ET/ 4am Monday CEST

[Ginger Papa]

Neither Team wants a rough start, obviously

Both want to keep it simple

and hopefully the officials stay out of the way

U.S.A. has some big guns

But the Swedes also have some talented snipers

May both Teams play their best, even at rest

Goaltending will likely be the difference

So, as an Old Goalie I‘m hoping……


Both the U.S. Keeper

and Swedish Goalie play well

I think the Game will be determined not by soft, pretty plays

but rather tough and gritty efforts

So light it up tonight Boys

Break the back of your opponent

and wrap up your side of the tournament

Glad to see the usual suspects in this thread. I hope I get to watch this game unbothered.

Let's go USA! No pity for Sweden tonight.

"This game has stakes."

Mmm... steak.

I’m a neutral fan just wanting a close, clean & hard fought Game.

May the best Team win

Did Dave Starman just say Wallstedt is the best goalie Sweden has ever produced?

Seriously?

Clearly the USA is the best team.

With all due respect, that Poster does not speak for Canada. Please see Post# 8 for what is probably more representative of our Country.

Thanks for the laughs. Good timing.

 

[MichaelFarrell]

Sweden’s size and goaltending might be difficult to handle. But, USA is the faster team by far I think

5-1 with 57 shots on goal ???????????? Ok I'm going to get in trouble for hijacking the thread. USA-Sweden will be a good one.

 

[Ginger Papa]

jee thanks lol

No offense intended, but I grew up watching Borje Salming. I’ll never call Swedes “soft”

Yes, I’m old

WJC threads not involving Canada are pretty slow and we just kind of hang out and shoot the breeze, mostly. I'm a USA fan and don't mind. Hell, my first post in this thread was about wanting a pair of high heels.
