WC: May 1 GDT - Sweden vs. Ukraine

[Riddarn]

He has been a God so far!

Well, he is usually a pretty reliable offensive player when the tempo isn't too high. It's his play in the defensive zone against big, powerful players that he tends to fall behind.

Pretty hard to believe that this ukrainian team is a team that have players that are supposed to play in the RSL. They are not very fast skaters...

BTW the 2nd goal was scored by Kenny Jonsson assisted by Hedstrom and Alfredsson..but the whole goal was pretty much by Hedstrom after he made 2 great moves to get by 2 players.

Wasn't it Rhodin that made the pass to Kenny?

they have put the wrong name on the assist...it was Rhodin who did those deeks.

I thought so too, the official ticker says Hedström and Alfie...

it couldn't have been Hedström since he has the stick on the other side.

2-1 now, breakaway goal scored, player opened up Lundqvist pads and snuck the puck between them.

he made it look so easy

 

[Berkut]

Is it possible to have a video of this breakaway goal?

GO Ukraine!

 

[Art Vandelay]

Belarus flashback...

 

[Predatore]

ouch 2-2
Ukranian shot deflected off Kenny Jönsson, just after an excellent breakaway save by Lundqvist...

 

[FLYLine27*]

HUGE save by Lundqvist on the breakaway...then a guy shoots a wrist shot from the point..hits off a Swedens players arm and into the net. Lundqvist had no chance.

 

[wassup77]

this is embarassing...another flop for tre kronor

heh

that explains why the Russians had so many troubles against Austria compared to Sweden ... because Sweden also sucks big time, just like Russia!

 

[Robertsson 4-ever]

Doesn't look good at all. Must have more speed and pass faster, and shoot!

Jönsson and Nordström is playing rather well though, I wouldn't be surprised if those two save Sweden today.

 

[Riddarn]

Brutal period.

 

[Berkut]

I hope Ukraine doesn't blew it at the end!

 

[wassup77]

yes indeed...my guess is that Sweden will win the same way you did against Austria

Aflredsson scores 3-2 then Weinhandl scores in empty net.

 

[Art Vandelay]

Has anyone ever tried putting the Sedins on different lines?

 

[wassup77]

Has anyone ever tried putting the Sedins on different lines?

nope, maybe when one of them were injured. But I think they play much better together.

 

[Riddarn]

Has anyone ever tried putting the Sedins on different lines?

Hardy did it in the single tournament he used them in.. Then I think Daniel got injured and he didn't have to bother with it. I think it's bad that these guys got drafted by the same team. They should have been split up early on to develop their game on their own not continue along the same path year after year.

 

[Diaboli]

Looking good for team Sweden You seem to like exciting games against the Eastern European countries

Lundqvist

Lundqvist

What a unbelievable save on the breakaway.
