An Ape called Yoko 12-30-2005, 02:37 PM 5-3. I think we will take a lead again and then relax a bit in the third, making it a bit exciting once more.
Bäckström with 1 goal and 2 assists while Bergfors will have two goals.
shaner89 12-30-2005, 02:48 PM 6-2 sweden. Salmonsson 2 goals
ZherdevTheGreat 12-30-2005, 06:06 PM 10-8 Latvia!! The ghost of the wondrous Helmut Balderis scores six goals in this one, one skating backwards while blindfolded, two after performing numerous & difficult high-speed puck tricks and winking at the Swedish bench and three on simple goal-mouth tap-ins while using the upside-down knob of his wooden koho to hit the puck in. Ahh I can dream can't I? He-he.
El_Scoobo 12-30-2005, 06:47 PM 4-3 for Sweden.

insider 12-30-2005, 09:21 PM Why isn't Bartulis in the lineup?

Gotta love that swedish confidence.
Riddarn 12-30-2005, 10:48 PM Something must be very wrong. IIHF.com claims the shots were 27-4 after the first.
VladNYC 12-30-2005, 11:12 PM In whos favore?
Riddarn 12-30-2005, 11:24 PM In whos favore?
Swedens'.
Shots 43-12 after two. Score: 7-1.
VladNYC 12-30-2005, 11:48 PM Nice to see Sweden playing to it's potential.
canucksfan 12-30-2005, 11:53 PM Sweden has a very good team this year. From the sounds of it they could have beat Russia in the first game.
Predatore 12-31-2005, 12:06 AM I am loving this. Bäckström... nice....
Riddarn 12-31-2005, 12:09 AM I am loving this. Bäckström... nice....
Check out the production of the '87 born guys tonight. Too bad that Bergfors will most likely miss the tournament next year. It would be so fun to see him tear it up on home ice.

Fredrik Pettersson 2+1
Mattias Ritola 1+2
Nicklas Bäckström 3+1
Nicklas Bergfors 1+3
Yup. Looks good to me.
An Ape called Yoko 12-31-2005, 01:32 AM Great win! :handclap:
And Bäckström with three goals and an assist! :yo:
Slitty 12-31-2005, 02:33 AM Congrats to Sweden! You most likely won't finnish 1st in the group but comparing the Sweden-Latvia game to the Russia-Latvia game, I think you will win your first knockout game (which should be a fairly easy one against Switzerland who I am predicting will beat out Finland for that 3rd place in the group) and then possibly beat Russia for a trip to the finals!
Sakaarnis 12-31-2005, 03:47 AM Good luck Sverige, always a tough opponent.

The only team that can beat russia is Canada IMO. Because of the home ice !
I expect Malkin come up big in the qurter/semis/final game !
and hey slitty "fairly easy one against Switzerland" ? :biglaugh:

Excellent. Thanks.
They sure about raving about the Swedish team calling it the top team in the group (do not know about that), but good to hear they are doing this well.

Nope that wasn't a mistake. I went to the game, and the puck was in Latvia's end for about 19:00 mins. of the 1st period. That Latvian goalie played pretty damn good, despite the score. Started to feel sorry for the guy, was getting peppered all night.
