FinWing 26 Report post Posted May 10, 2007 (edited) Hi everyone! I thought I'd start a new discussion about today's WC games, in case anyone is interested. I know I'll be watching! Go Finland! EDIT: Canada - Switzerland underway now. Edited May 10, 2007 by FinWing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FinRedWing 172 Report post Posted May 10, 2007 Go Finland! Should be a great match. Hopefully Lehtonen performs well,he's MUCH better than Grahame. If only someone would score the necessary goals... Canada-Switzerland still 0-0. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canada-Switzerland still 0-0. You said it, we've got to get traffic in front of Grahame and get those ugly goals. Those perimeter shots aren't gonna do us much good, not to mention our shooting has been pretty awful in quality so far. Lehtonen totally owns Grahame, hopefully he just keeps his cool. USA has been playing better than they usually do in this competition, should definitely be an entertaining game. EDIT: 1-0 Canada after 1st.

USA has been playing better than they usually do in this competition, should definitely be an entertaining game. I'm going to predict a 4-1 win. 1-0 Canada after 1st,Lombardi scores. Canada MUST win their (possible) next game against Sweden. I simply can't take any more Swedish gold medal parties... And remember LGW'ers,this doesn't mean I don't like our Swedes.

Luckily there are no Swedish Wings on the team (wohoo!) so there's no conflict of interest for us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SweWings 45 Report post Posted May 10, 2007 With the team Sweden has right now I think we can be happy with coming top 4. If we do manage to win it'll probably be bigger than last years. Russia seems to be the over-all favourite to win...We shall see. A Canada-Russia final would be cool. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Russia seems to be the over-all favourite to win...We shall see. A Canada-Russia final would be cool. I think your only question mark is in goal, whereas Finland has had trouble scoring. Sweden plays great as a team and within their system. Russia had issues with goaltending as well but the arrival of Nabokov should address that. EDIT: 2-0 Canada, Mayers. 2. EDIT: The Swiss score, 2-1. 3. EDIT: 3-1, Nash. Also the score after 2nd. Edited May 10, 2007 by FinWing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FinWing 26 Report post Posted May 10, 2007 (edited) 4-1 Canada, Lombardi's second goal. Pretty much game over. EDIT: 5-1, Canada rubbing it in. Edited May 10, 2007 by FinWing Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
