PGT: WJC Quarter Finals: Game 22 | Switzerland Eliminate Sweden 2-0

[Canuckistani]

Congratulations Switzerland. Full marks for the victory!

 

[Prntscrn]

Hopefully we'll never get to see Monten behind the bench ever again.

Whatever we'll just see someone who's gone through the same "school" as him. Time to stop the f***ing inbread party thinking within coaching in Sweden

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Embarrassing by Sweden to lose this game.

 

[Satan]

Huge

Wow.....

 

[blindpass]

Sweden needs to learn to lose with more class.

 

[Mr Hockey]

Sweden must be in meltdown lol

 

[Conrad McBenis]

Congrats Canada... all you have to do is beat Finland and you are in the GMG.

 

[Jayan]

Sweden still the Regular season champs though

Presidents Trophy matters soooo much if u get eliminated in 1st round of the playoffs.

Congratulations to the Swedish team for playing the worst hockey game I've seen in decades. They somewhat realized they can actually pass a puck after 20 minutes. But after that, duuh, what do I do? They should've switched spots with Denmark, it would've been a more even competition in the QF. They do have the stomach flu going through the team and being coached by Montén, but still...

Also congratulations to the Swiss, they can always upset, they played a perfect game up to what they can perform, on a back-to-back, they just dominated this... team. A couple of very solid D-men, a bunch of garbage forwards with some outlier and a solid goalie.

So...

The winner of Canada / Finland gets the Swiss?

Yep, you are correct.

 

[Mestaruus]

Sweden hasn't lost a quarter final game in 12 years or something

Still, where are the gold medals that support their preliminary round record? Sweden got like only one in the recent years. It is a weird statistic and some call it a curse even.

Great game Switzerland, hopefully upsets are a common thing for the games today

Hush now.

 

[Mathieu]

I don't get why the Swiss coach was so mad though ? If the Swiss player did not touch it, the Swedes would have got possession of the puck and could organise an attack. Instead you get a face off at your blue line which is not ideal but still not very dangerous ? Plus there's a chance that you win the face off and kill off more time.

Seemed really odd to me.

 

[Nithoniniel]

Congrats Switzerland. Best team won, to be honest.

Incredibly disappointing performance, especially from our forwards. If you don't have the gamebreaking skill, you need to find other ways to be effective. They were both passive and lacked edge.

 

[End on a Hinote]

So...

The winner of Canada / Finland gets the Swiss?

Ya

 

[EK47]

That was well deserved. Congrats Switzerland!

Oh and Sweden: avgå, alla! Especially you Montén.

 

[Thebesthockey]

USA vs Canada final pls !! !!!!!!!

 

[Boonk]

RIP Sweden

 

[Prntscrn]

Let them row their own boat over the Atlantic, pathetic.

 

[Outofbodyinhungary]

Hush now.

Why

 

[Slimmy]

Good luck Swiss! Will be rooting for you. Better to go out now than embarrass ourselves in the semis.

Setting up your defense in the neutral zone is much better than an offensive zone faceoff.

Worth remembering Luca Hollenstein.

What a performance.

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Well done Hollenstein!
