Nystrom: Hockey Fest waiting – and a bang – Expressen

TO SEE chances OUT FOR THE LAW In the semi-finals according to Magnus NYSTRÖM

WHY RUSSIA SHOULD WIN

Alexander Ovechkin landed in Prague yesterday (Friday) and he makes an already star-filled teams even more offensively strong. There is no “laborer” or fill-player among forwards. Only artists.

The goalkeeper made against this All-Star lineup is 21-year-old AHL player Connor Hellebuyck . Russia survived against Sweden despite the 3-0 became 3-3.

Found a way to win despite the fact that Sweden was the best team in the final period. Russia should have learned its own lesson.

WHY CAN USA CRASH

A 21-year-old goalie who did not even play in the NHL against all Russian superstars. There is nothing the United States love more than this kind of stories.

This is similar to a modern variant of Lake Placid with a young inexperience US against a great and powerful Russia. US law has a speed and optimism that is also reminiscent of Wonder team and when these teams met in the group stage in Ostrava as fallen Russian stars. The United States has guaranteed inspired by Sweden’s last period in the quarter-finals, then we saw what happens when Russian players are put under heavy pressure and are forced to spend most of their time in their own zone.

The match picture hate the Russian superstars. There should be the United States. At any price.

WHY SHOULD CANADA WIN

Has won everything in the World Cup and made 58 goals in eight matches. Hit poor Belarus 9-0 in the quarter-finals after scoring of 13 players. Canada is a lagmaskin – with superstars like leadership types. Sidney Crosby has been good, but usually save their best for last in international matches, as when he made the decisive goal in the last two Olympic finals. Canada has been “on a mission” since the Pittsburgh went from the Stanley Cup playoffs and Crosby, called Canada’s team management:

– Hey, it’s Sid. Do you have a place for me?

WHY CAN CZECH REPUBLIC CLASH

Canada has a superteams – but no super goalkeeper. The Czech Republic has God with 68 on his back and he does not see the Mike Smith at all. Jaromir Jagr only see networks. The Czech Republic has an unprecedented audience support and guess how it is with confidence after the victory against Finland and when going out side by side with God. Czech Republic accounted for a super bang in the World Cup final in Cologne in 2010, when Jagr and the Czech Republic broke Russia. This is a better Czech law. Obviously, it may be a bang again. Not least after the Czech Republic made a dirty joke like Russia and lightning convened a superstar NHL in Tomas Plekanec from Montreal.

Prague. When the Three Crowns have gone home, then begins the hockey World Cup seriously.

First, a young and cocky US against a confident and seasoned alloy Russia, talked shit so that Americans revving up considerably.

Since forever young Jaromir Jagr and his Czech Republic against Sidney Crosby Canada.

Despite the absence of Swedes so waiting a real hockey party.

And yes, a big bang.

Woke up in Prague after Sweden-Russia and the long trip from Ostrava through the night, which included the got horns on a truck swerved back and forth across the road, with probably a very sleepy driver behind the wheel.

The first thing I thought of the morning was that I lacked the Oliver Ekman-Larsson , Filip Forsberg , John Klingberg and a Swedish team with the potential to do something really big here in the Czech Republic. As I write this is the Three Crowns already at home, in a courtyard outside my hotel room window, a man sits and plays the accordion.

It sounds smooth.

The entire Czech Republic is one big smile.

When I returned the rental car, I said:

– Yes, we were in Ostrava yesterday, I took it out for Sweden.

The man behind the counter replied immediately:

– You have no Jagr .

No, we have not the .

Peter Forsberg is , a year younger than Jaromir Jagr and Foppa took off four years ago.

Mats Sundin only a year older than Jagr and then Sundin threw in the towel has Jagr played two seasons in the KHL, four seasons in the NHL, two Olympic and four World Championships.

I repeat what I wrote earlier: We Many of us feel younger than we actually are as long as Jagr plays on.

So thanks Jaromir.

is not only the Czechs who cheer for you this weekend.

But he’s not easy at home.

Jagr is not a celebrity in the Czech Republic.

He is God.

He has said it himself.

His colleague Per Bjurman Aftonbladet has talked about how Jagr once in the NHL would rather talk by North American journalists than Czechs and he explained it by saying:

– I can not talk to them. They think that I am God.

How do you think the Czechs looked at him after the quarter-finals against Finland? In its 150 th country struggles did 42-year-old two goals and an assist in a quarterfinal against Finland – the home of Prague.

In the evening it is Sidney Crosby and Canada to master Jagr, the Czech team and more than 17 000 saved and fanatical spectators who will bring his national team to the World Cup final.

Canada is the favorite and it was 6-3 against the Czech Republic in the group stage – but it was before God display against Finland.

I do not rule out an upset here. And it will not be the Czech Republic in the final it will be the US – I can not imagine two favorite victories and the given final Canada-Russia.

No, it paved the way for trouble favorites .

This is hockey. Upsets are living in this sport.

Tonight’s “main attraction” can become an instant classic and förmatchen can be just as good.

Russian star Artemi Panarin has done the best he could do.

For the USA.

Panarin said:

– We’re in a fighting mood to play the Americans. We need to teach Those college kids a lesson.

I take it in English, because this is the sentences of lights that ledskrift in the US locker room before the afternoon game.

Russia should “teach the young people” a lesson. That statement is like a gasoline canister straight into an open fire.

Thanks for that Panarin.

US against Russia is more than a hockey game.

After the classic penalty drama in Sochi hailed the US team of Barack Obama .

The president will have control even in this game.

It would not surprise me if Obama false call to the Kremlin after a possible victory.

If Russia wins, guaranteed Putin in touch to Washington and then talk loud and clear in every possible context of Russia’s excellence and superiority.

US-Russia in Prague become a fan of the cold war when it was most intense and brutal.

World Cup is not over, dear friends.

The best is left for last.
