WC QROUND: May 10 GDT - Sweden vs. Latvia

[ALF AmericanLionsFan]

4 - 1 Sweden

 

[Noutaja]

What have they been saying? I haven't seen any interviews.

Those "arrogant comments after game" come from his imagination. Most arrogant thing I can dig out of their comments is that Peltonen and Kapanen thought the draw made quarterfinals practically certain (meaning that P&K are arrogant because they believe Sweden won´t lose against Latvia )

 

[Kain]

If Latvia wins, they deserve it but I'll be honest--I don't want the last Finland game to leave a bad taste in my mouth, so I have to say:

Heja Sverige!

 

[RorschachWJK]

I wouldn't have a problem with Latvia winning this one. They deserve to continue to tournament probably more than Finland does. One or the other of my favourite teams will advance to the quarters no matter what

 

[Shack]

Seeing such support from finnish fans brings a tear to my eye..

Lets all gather around the camp fire and sing cumbaya!

Not that I wan't them to win, which I do, but also they play great creative hockey.

If not cheering to Finland, I cheer for Sweden, Canada and Russia.

 

[reaper]

Höglund is replacing Kahnberg, anyone know why? Obviously Kahnberg hasn't been that great but worse than Höglund???

 

[mikkoz]

Heja Sverige! Och Helan går

Lets all gather around the camp fire and sing cumbaya!

Yes, please bring the peace pipe or anykind of pipe, we provide the brew.

And if finland are out, and sweden play canada who then?

I always cheer finland as my second choice, theres noone Id rather lose to.

3-0 sverige. lundqvist with the shutout (thats like the 3rd time ive said that, although I actually think it will be this game.)

Its like choosing between plague and colera. I think Kahnberg is too weak and Höglund just plain sucks. I´d rather have Kahnberg though, as he sometimes awakes from his two year slumber and puts it in the net. But I don´t think Kahnberg will ever do a game in the NHL.

Kahnberg actually backchecks, has a better shot and is younger. Höglund is just.. better than a pylon, but not by much.

 

[Kronblom]

They should have put Weinhandl on the stands instead, he´s totally useless in this tournament.

 

[nomorekids]

Latvia!

 

[Jamina]

3-1 for Sweden


Länge livet nordiskt samarbete

 

[mikkoz]

1-0 Kronwall, lot of space - Latvia tired after yesterday?

 

[reaper]

Niklas Kronwall 1 - 0 after 28 seconds

 

[reaper]

This guy is future nr 1 defender in NHL, just incredible.

 

[Preds666]

loved his hit on the Latvian player, can't believe he was called for a penalty though. That was a clean, although tremendously powerful, hit IMO.

 

[reaper]

Yes, great hit, new PK for Sweden. German ref sucking so far.

Kronwall had the ultimate start of the game! A quick goal and a crazy ass hit! thats what we want to see when we watch hockey!

 

[Preds666]

uuh, almost a high-light goal by Z. He is looking good so far.

 

[FLYLine27*]

Nice move by Zetts.

 

[reaper]

Zetterberg almost made a Forsberg goal. Like the one he did against Finland for 5-5. Close one

 

[norrisnick]

Hopefully my name will continue to be applicable in the future passing from one Nick to another Nik.

 

[wilka91*]

it took Sweden 28 seconds to do what Finland failed to do in 60 minutes!

 

[wassup77]

Hopefully my name will continue to be applicable in the future passing from one Nick to another Nik.

yeah, its not impossible...just look at that solo-ride of his.
