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

[stastny12]

USA were underdogs aswell?

What? It was just a prediction. I believe that it is a quite normal supposed to predict win for USA.

Read this thread ! it is a joke.

Swiss can do what they want ... refs say nothing (normal they are Finish and Canadian) + they can play 6 players nothing is called ... + Swedes are sick + ... + + + !!

Honestly is it funny. do not be surprised some people pick on it to make fun !!!

Swiss aren't that bad ... give them credit. And the Swedes ... well so far it is not their best game.
1-0 is not a scandal so far.

Are you going to be okay?

 

[Arselona]

What an exciting game

 

[Lampedampe]

When will Lundeström wake up?

 

[canswetoxic]

This doesn't look like a Swedes team, wake up! Something is wrong with them!

 

[EK47]

Some next level sloppiness from Sweden.

Mental midgets in the medal rounds when the games really count

 

[Melkor]

Swisses are easily a superior team so far.

 

[Chimpradamus]

Looks like the refs are reading HF during the break. One penalty for hugging and one for too many men, immediately after the bashing of exactly those things. I didn't see a replay of the hooking call, so I don't know.

 

[Pascal Blatter]

can someone tell me where's Julian Mettler is? He was so good at the WJC-U18 last year..

 

[hockey20000]

the swiss are tough haha eeven if they wont win this. I think this might be there best overaII team they ever sent to worId juinors

 

[Prntscrn]

When will Lundeström wake up?

He's been bad all tournament but this game is next level bad. Said to my self 5 minutes in I wouldn't be surprised if he ended up leaving the game with the flu

 

[CanuckCity]

I have to agree with this. It's important to keep in mind, that we have a way smaller number of registered/active hockey players in Switzerland compared to any of the top nations, it's not even close 27k vs 62k in Sweden, 73k in Finland and 120k in Czech Republic. Let's not look at Canada and the US with over 600 and 500k, respectively. (Slovaks have even fewer players 10k). In my opinion, one can even make an argument that the Swiss ice hockey federation needs to invest a lot just to make sure that the gap doesn't get larger.

Wow surprising that Czech #s almost double both Finland and Sweden yet they are nowhere near their level of talent production. Matter of funding maybe?

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

Sweden's offense just isnt there

 

[Prntscrn]

Doubt Zetterlund understand what a pass is.

 

[EK47]

You know your edge is bad when your top line RW is still chasing his first point of the tournament in the f***ing quarterfinals.

 

[Slimmy]

Ok, forget everything I said. Now I'm really starting to worry.

It's not. The 1990 year born team was better.

Probably players spending too much time playing here in North America instead of developing their hockey skills in the Czech Republic.

 

[Mestaruus]

The Swiss look amazing. Finland needs to take notes for Canada game of this attitude of the Swiss.

 

[EK47]

Welp no way Sweden kill another penalty with the game going the way it is.

 

[Erikfromfin]

Well they arent excactly loaded with elite forwards there..

 

[FinnishSniper]

Well glad the Swedes are choking for once like the Finns always do The Swiss are playing great though, loads of individual skill combined with the flow that they have.

 

[Blender]

Like 7 guys on the ice for Sweden there.

 

[WilliamNylander]

Terrible. So sloppy
