World Cup: Aug 31 GDT - Germany vs. Sweden (2-5)

[ALF AmericanLionsFan]

Anyone know what the penalty call was on this last penalty? I thought for sure the Germans were going on the powerplay?

 

[hockeyfan125]

get the Sedins out there. Boooo.

 

[SChan*]

This has been an entertaining game though. 7 goals after 2 periods

 

[LoudmouthHemskyFan#2]

In Salo's defence, as much as I hate him...It did go off the guys stick....Still a poor excuse for a goal...

 

[Dave is a killer]

Andreas Johansson has missed 2 or 3 wide OPEN shots/nets so far, now you see why Nashville declined to bring him back

agreed, an entertaining game. Love the attitude and heart Sundin is showing out there. I only hope Näslund will finally get his big break internationally with the Swedish national team.

Marcus Nilson is playing an excellent physical game.

I am pretty sure we will not see Tommy Salo start any more games in this tourney.

 

[Leo Naphta]

Well, at least we won't need to speculate as to who is Sweden's starter now.

I was trying to figure that out as well.Looked to me like it could of been #19(not sure who he is) for germany could have been called for interference.
Has been a pretty good game,lots of offence and quite physical.
I love hockey!!!!!!!!

 

[Morbo]

The Sedin twins are healthy scratched

Meanwhile, Sundin is The Man.

 

[Poikilitic]

Damn it, im gonna kick salo's ass

 

[HellsBells]

Marcus Nilson is playing an excellent physical game.

Agreed, I can't wait to see more of him in this tourney and a full year in Calgary. He's a very smart hockey player.

 

[Poikilitic]

beautiful goal and passes by Mats.
Really, Toronto needs Alffy. These 2 can murder.
Imagine: Alfredsson, Sundin, Roberts

*Drools*

Sweden should try Tellqvist out in the next game.. who knows.

The thing is that right now, in big games, who knows if you can trust salo.. he has let in VERY weak goals (belarus, germany).. so it's almost a good idea to try out a younger guy who might play good.

I didn't see the goal but apparently Tellqvist let in a shot from center during one of the exhibition games... can they trust him?

 

[QcS]

maybe they need to bring back Tommy Soderstrom.

 

[Reilly311]

can someone update me on the scoring? (like who got the goals and assists?)

 

[SChan*]

Sweden is playing with a physical egde. Axelsson is hurt. A german just did an ugly kneehit on naslund.

 

[SChan*]

Thank god. Naslund is playing again.

[Bloody Sabbath]

Salo gets lucky there. Can this guy literally not catch? Wow.

 

[No Canaduh!]

Germany vs. the Czech's should be a good one! At least the Germans are trying!

 

[Bloody Sabbath]

5-2 Final

Sweden looks amazing except for Mr.Salo.

 

[Hockey_God]

Well, say your goodbyes to Salo..

 

[SChan*]

salo is dropping every puck. Say hello to Tellqvist. Can't get worse.


Alfredsson-Sundin-Modin is a very good line

Forsberg-Zetterberg-Naslund will only get better.

Holstrom and Pahlsson have been playing very physical. Looking good.
