Don't underrate Slovakia folks, look at their roster. They have two excellent blueliners to complement a good core and two solid goalies.

What do you see in sweden? Personally they look weak to me. They lose Steen their best player from last year. Salmonsson and Nillson are still risks and no real great goaltender.

No good goaltender??? Why!? Because they aren´t hyped??? David Rautio was the best goalkeeper in four nations in Växjö and the starter Christopher Heino-Lindbergh is starter for Hammarby in Allsvenskan(playin in a very good mens league).
It was a long time since we had good goalies like this....

The defense and goaltending are swedens best aspects. The forwards are the weakest link.

Agreed, and Steen aside the forwards are at least as good as last year or the year before.
