Red Deer Rebels I believe.

 

[Ginger Papa]

Not sure why people are blaming Askarov for that goal. That was a perfect screen. Hard to stop what you cannot see.

 

[hockey20000]

Hmm sweden for gold medal game finally again?

 

[Devils Army]

This angle is practically unwatchable

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

My feed keeps freezing (TV 6)

 

[Yeti34]

Any reason Lysel isn’t playing? Are these guys all better than him that are plying in front of him?

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

good pace

 

[Realgud]

really good pace

 

[Buck Naked]

Hmm sweden for gold medal game finally again?

Nah, they gonna choke.

 

[The Head Crusher]

The first shot goal on Askarov, somehow not surprised. He seemed shaky vs Canada.

 

[jj cale]

This Swedish team is pretty good, not sure what all the bitching was about.

 

[hockey20000]

lol jesus how was this goalie a nhl draft pick nvm a 1st rounder lmao

 

[Chrisinroch]

5-4 Russia on OT

I’d take the under all day

 

[J1mLahey]

Woof Askarov looks shaky again

I think most would agree it's a nice screen and shot but the the issue has been that a big goalie in good position should have many pucks just hit him. He makes himself so small in net... I've yet to see any improvement in that area over two full years.

 

[wonton15]

Swedes have more structure. Russians seem to want to do it all themselves so far

 

[Three On Zero]

What’s with these Edmonton angles? Almost unwatchable. Or Red Deer

 

[Antiillafire]

What’s with these Edmonton angles? Almost unwatchable

This is in Red deer

Because it could be better, and the middle 6 lines need to be swapped.

 

[Pavels Dog]

This Swedish team is pretty good, not sure what all the bitching was about.

People who think because they don’t have the flashiest names they have to suck.

 

[Gstank]

This Swedish team is looking good. Really disappointed by the Russians so far. They have a lot of fire power

 

[Slimmy]

Askarov weak again. Im not high on him at all.

Great screen by Eklund. No shade on Askarov.

 

[Maplebeasts]

This Swedish team is pretty good, not sure what all the bitching was about.

They left some much better players at home than some of the guys they brought (ie, Wallinder, the Djurgardens 3.)
