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

[Bounces R Way]

Caught Willander sleeping there.
Liked what I've seen from Howard this tourney. Best dressed at his draft and guy is fast.

 

[Filthy Dangles]

US went to school there, great play out of the zone

Howard blew the zone and the hard rim caught the Swedes

 

[Krigsgaldr]

Damn this slow stream lol

 

[Fossy21]

Willander could have easy closed that down along the boards and made Howard pay for cheating. Or had a lead in the chase for the puck. He chose neither.

 

[Pi]

Hutchon is built like a stick man right now but he's a fighter man. The Habs got a good one.

I've learned to never underestimate the Swedes in international hockey when it comes to f***ing things up, they are the undisputed champs at that, no one is even in their ballpark.

 

[TLEH]

Anyone know of fancy stats websites that are tracking this game? None of my usuals seem to have anything. Want to see some xG data

Only ever seen EP do some game score stuff. No xG.

 

[EK47]

Willander and Lindstein have not been great today.

 

[NyQuil]

Casey wasn’t the guy in front, he made the bad turnover…

Touché.

 

[karlstegger]

Wonder if there will be a medal tossing today?

don't have any stats but they certainly favor the swedes significantly

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Sometimes it is trying to be too fine on a goalie - Augustine has been very good, they may be trying to shoot to specific spots based on pre-scout. Seems like they are trying hard to go high and are killing the glass.

Seem to be shooting & missing high blocker alot

 

[Pi]

Yeah, except for all the breakaways.

You would have to be lying to yourself if you think the US has played better than Sweden right now lol. Augustine has been far busier.

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

Willander and Lindstein have not been great today.

Disagree. Bad read by Willander on the goal but ASP and Salomonsson have been terrible.

 

[jj cale]

I'd put it at 50%

 

[LaMasquerade]

Ostlund sure is fluid..

 

[TLEH]

Ostlund is so dynamic

 

[Realgud]

Disagree. Bad read by Willander on the goal but ASP and Salomonsson have been terrible.

Only Havelid has been good on Sweden's defense imo

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Another shot wide

 

[Castle8130]

Rinzel should probably be benched. He's been terrible

 

[svartgul]

This US team has so many crazy fast players.

 

[SelltheTeamFrancesco]

Ostlund is so dynamic

Except his shot is trash and he can’t hit the net to save his life.

 

[Dingo44]

Good work by Ostlund and Wahlberg.

 

[Barrie22]

3-1

 

[LaMasquerade]

Wow... US pulling away..
