A typical game between Sweden and Finland. 


Lekkerimäkis two goals were delicious. 

 

The release on his shot is ridiculous. Once he improves his skating and strength a bit more, this kid will be filling the net for us…especially on the PP. He is the clear heir apparent to Brock.

As someone else said somewhere earlier, there’s your top D pair for Sweden….Lindstein and Willander. Have not been on the ice for an even strength goal against, while providing plenty of offensive support.

Willander plays a very similar game to Hronek. He’s going to be a heck of an NHLer.

Found this description of D EP (and comparison to Edler)

Edler didn’t have much snarl to his game though. He threw the occasional big hit but kind of shied away from the rough stuff.


If he can be a Mattias Ekholm like player I’ll be very happy.

Sweden hadn’t given up a goal until this game. Pretty impressive stuff, especially from Pettersson and Willander.

 

This was Finlands gold medal game make no mistake.

Finland and Sweden always are heated, high stakes games for both teams. They bring the best out of both of them.
