Sweden is lucky our PP sucks

 

[tobu]

Good tournament from the 2007 SK group overall. Staying competitive with bigger older teams.

 

[vlady]

Sweden dominating now, but not getting many shots through

 

[vlady]

offside challenge saves us

 

[flemo]

it was obvious offside, I was really surprised when linesman signaled ok

 

[Predatore]

Not the most entertaining of games, but I do think Alfons Freij has been excellent. On a related note, not sure I have seen a Swedish team where the top 2 D are miles and miles ahead of the rest of the d. Really mediocre depth on this Swedish team. At least Eliasson has calmed down a bit and not going full neanderthal in this game

 

[vlady]

Straka with a McTavish-esque block

 

[RKBoy]

our PPs are dreadful.

 

[vlady]

our PPs are dreadful.

absolutely. I mentioned yesterday that it's just telegraphed shots. Easy to defend. We have the zone time but don't know what to do with the puck.

Haha. Yeah Eliasson is something else, game is not over yet.

After a late night, I forced myself to get up early to watch the Can/USA game, only to find out I had the time wrong by 2 hours....

 

[vlady]

Good push by the Slovaks here.

 

[tobu]

Outshooting Sweden in U18, wow. Great performance by Harenstam in goal.

 

[vlady]

Luka with a bad turnover leads to SWE second goal

 

[hockeyprospects9]

Fernström will have the bragging rights back in Örebro

 

[Eye of Ra]

congrats svk on a good tournament

 

[vlady]

Congrats to Sweden. Well done to our boys who overachieved big time. Many players coming back next year.

Let's go!! get on them and start hitting them.

cmon..........................good hit.

refs let the kids play.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Refs already showing their incompetence. That was not a penalty. It was just a collision.

 

[Lou Sassole]

Clean hit/collision.

 

[FLAMESFAN]

These refs are really going to take any physicality out of the game hey?

I wanted to see them play the AMericans tough too

 

[McMozesmadness]

That’s at least a trip in my mind. But it doesn’t matter. These 10 minute reviews suck the life out of the game

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

This review system is a complete farce.
