Re: WJC discussion
Sweden has to win this one. They just have to. Home crowd, always one of the top 3 or 4 teams and never win. Lots of pressure though - let's see how they do against the powerhouse Americans.

Re: WJC discussion
A good buddy of mine is over there for the tournament. He bought a ticket package and travelled to Gothenburg for it. Not the first time he and his wife have travelled to Europe to partake in the WJC tourney.
He said on his facebook that the place is absolutely cooking. I can only imagine what it's like to take that in in person (much like Halifax last year I suppose) but watching it on TV, you can tell the Swedish fans are rocking the house.
Personally, I dont care who wins, I just want a good, tight game. So far so good. I did pick the US to win headed into the tourney so we'll see.

Re: WJC discussion
Congrats to the US. Probably one of the more dominant WJ teams I've seen in years.

Re: WJC discussion
Yes, very impressive.
And just imagine if they return as many players as they can for next years tourney.
I can easily see the USA winning again next year.

Re: WJC discussion
True. They were the clear favorites going in, and showed why in the final games. Good parity behind the US and nice to see Sweden getting to the final game.
