GDT: USA vs. Sweden | January 5th, Final; 1:30 PM EST, 7:30 PM Local

[MissingNo]

What a bad call by the ref before the goal. No penalty. US having the refs with them.

 

[Duodenum]

Sweden needs to keep it simpler, make the easy play.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Wonder if Sweden would reunite the Djugarden trio, Wahlberg seems like more of a straight line player.

 

[theslatcher]

Swedes trying too much by themselves.

 

[Castle8130]

Night and Day BC line is by far the best line in the tourney

 

[Peiskos]

I can't believe it's been 12 years since Sweden's last gold at the World Juniors, don't want to say now or never but there is definitely some huge pressure there. Just turning the game on now.

 

[LaMasquerade]

Swedes trying too much by themselves.

Refs should help too?

 

[Lambo]

So the US fans only consist of family members of the players. But the Americans don’t have any “real” fans.

 

[theslatcher]

Refs should help too?

So far the American bribes have outweighed ours.

 

[Romang67]

Refs should help too?

Yes.

[Sergei Shirokov]

Getting that first goal was huge for the USA


They were getting worked a bit by Sweden's superior team play early on but that allowed them to settle in & take their speed/skill advantage to the Swedes.

too selfish, why didnt pass the puck ?

Wonder if it has anything to do with being a continent away from home ?

I mean, I looked into the cost of attending this tournament when I heard about it. And I would have had to sell way, way too many body parts to attend.




* not mine of course.

 

[Breakers]

Who was the Swedish dman that essentially said

“After you” on the goal

He literally watches him with his stick on the ice.
Not even a bump on him

 

[matsqq]

Have to bury your chances.

Sweden got plenty but no goal,

USA doesn't need many chances to score

That's the difference right now !

 

[MessierII]

game is far from over

 

[NyQuil]

What a bad call by the ref before the goal. No penalty. US having the refs with them.

 

[Krigsgaldr]

Fantastic game so far .

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

That sequence from Casey on the delayed penalty was pretty incredible. He won't get an assist, but he made that goal happen.

Bystedt is the guy trailing Perreault to the net. Salomonsson is the guy in the corner who isn't back to the net when it goes in.

 

[NyQuil]

This is Gothenburg.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Sweden has to get back to outworking the US down low, being sharp with passes and get more pucks on net.

If they don't make a push USAs skill will roll them over.

 

[Breakers]

Bystedt is the guy trailing Perreault to the net. Salomonsson is the guy in the corner who isn't back to the net when it goes in.

Thanks
I thought it was a dman right there
Had to be him or a centerman

This is Gothenburg.

A lot of missing Canadian body parts I guess……
