Swayed and rocked – much better – Aftonbladet

Toronto. It was a victory Junior crowns are needed.

Richard Grönborg had managed to seal the worst leaks and found moreover the right of goalkeeper election.

Since there is much that must be better.

Just as it should be the beginning of a tournament.

It was a remarkable event which never really lit into. Does not match that got the crowd at the Air Canada Centre emotionally carried away as they did in the first match between Denmark and Russia.

Otherwise, it’s a cool scene that junior crowns appears on right now. One can really feel and breathe in the culture and atmosphere found in this arena. And when the host nation Canada connects to the quarterfinals game, it will turn into a crazy boiling pot.

But the opening match ended with a victory and necessary working conditions for the Swedish team.

Dotted right on the goalie choice

Richard Green’s schooner wobbled and swayed precariously over the first two periods. And really, it was not otherwise be expected after a messy week before the opening game against the Czech Republic.

Stepping out into the mighty Air Canada is not something these players are accustomed to.

The start was not very good.

Goalkeeper issue has been a question mark ever since the squad was taken out. They became even greater after Jonas Johansson’s injury and Samuel Ward’s tough matches against Canada and the United States.

Now chose Richard Grönborg and goalkeeper coach Nizze Landén to ask Linus Söderström. A daring choice that became a hit.

Last Soderstrom was a match was with Djurgården’s J-20 team two weeks ago. Now he went in and accounted for a convincing effort that promises more for the rest.

His outfield players started contrast, nervous, hesitant and sometimes sloppy.

Söderströms goalie games

created much needed calm. Saving on Jakub Vranas neutral at the 0-0 position was a key sequence. And Adrian Kempe ahead goal in the power play tied up very many knots.

Just what a crumpled Swedish team needed.

Lucas Wallmarks delicious behind his back-pass to Jens Lööke gave further work in peace and confidence.

No risk of underestimation

Still, invited the Czech Republic into the game again. But that they really needed to do as much on their own.

Robert Hägg gave away the puck at the reduction and ended up on the heels even in the acknowledgment.

Now Sweden was able to run away after three really beautiful goals and ultimately march home a victory.

Luckily for Sweden was that only one of the Czech Republic two fixed stars were at stake mood. Equally active and toxic as Jakub Vrana was, as invisible and aloof was David Pastrňák.

but I look forward to lift up this Swedish team to any hot medal candidate. The Czech Republic is quite different from the United States and Canada. Meanwhile, junior crowns a good opportunity to win their group, especially as Russia does not believe in their opening match.

Even today we get more responses. Then we Denmark, which surprisingly took the point of just Russia. There is in any case no risk of any underestimation of the Swedish side. Based on what Denmark showed up yesterday, it will be an equally tough opponent like the Czech Republic.

But also an opponent Junior crowns should be able to maneuver out.
