Sweden and Canada are both held with a loss?

Guess who isn't!

What's your problem with Sweden? I haven't heard any interview where they came of like overconfident douchebags.

They dissed the Canadian team big time saying they were more worried about the United States which isn't much of a dis since the U.S. is the home country, and the dissed Canada again by saying that a couple other teams played them better than Canada did.

Which got Canadians all pissed off because hockey is the only thing that makes the country relevant, and when their team gets glazed over for another country, they have nothing.

TSn showed their coach Roger Rennberg say we thoguth we had better competition in the round robin with Russia and the Czechs. And he said this right beside Canada's coach Dave Cameron. Also every year Canada and the Swedes play in this tournament some dumb ass Swede always says something stupid and they always lose

Ok, I heard that but I didn't get any douchebag vibe, actually I agree. Sweden looked better against Canada than they did against Russia and they just proved their point by losing to Russia

In all honesty, what else is the coach supposed to say? He has to do something to try to lift his players to try to build team confidence so I can see why he'd not include Canada in the same grouping as the best teams in the tournament. Get in a pot shot to play the mind fuck on the Canadians and see if it works.

I just wanna see a North American team take home the gold. And now that it's either the U.S. or Can. against the Russians, I have a 50/50 chance of being a profit again

I did agree with the Swede coach but if he thinks he can think just don't say it.

I think the winner of the USA - CAN game is the favourite for gold. Usually I'm unbiased but it would be nice to see the home team in the final.

Wait... Canadians hate the Swedish guy for saying Russia was more of a challenge... Yet they love Emerson Etem bashing Buffalo? Same situations, you shouldn't say it, but the Swedish coach had MORE of a reason!

Then tell the players behind closed doors, don't say it to the media where it can get lots of fans like me riled up.

I've read a lot of Canadian comments praising Emerson Etem for speaking his mind about Buffalo.
The same people go back to say the Swedish coach should keep his mouth shut.

I thought he said it to prevent his team to become overconfident and underestimate the next opponent. It didn't work.
But I can see why you didn't like the comment.

I thought the comments were completely fair and had a degree of accuracy. Both the U.S. and Canada are very good teams, so it's not much of a stretch to think that the home country looks more imposing.

Honestly it was a dumb move by the Swedes. Why give a team you know to be very good locker room fodder?
