sureWhyNot 19 Report post Posted September 30, 2009 I was jsut about to say that but I was just going to ask when the Howard bashers were coming in here...the swedes skate really pretty on that ice too...they just need to get their passes to work and maybe they can make a game out of it. He's looked good no doubt, but I am far from confident yet in his ability to be a full time NHL goaltender. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evilmrt 636 Report post Posted September 30, 2009 Yeah I'm not really sure whats wrong with the audio. Its like they're playing it over the PA and we get to hear it through a mic in the stands? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swayze 81 Report post Posted September 30, 2009 i didnt know he was 17 .. must of just been put on the team ... he doesnt have a last name on his jersey .. wish i could get some back ground on the swede team They won the Elitserien championship last season, mainly because Gustavsson was their goalie.

Vladifan 680 Report post Posted September 30, 2009 (edited) i like how they applause at every stoppage of play I was thinking it was for every Wings' line change...just like when you hear bands play, you clap for individual solos, but WHO know? And who cares?! What a GREAT experience. And yes, the ice looks huge! Edited September 30, 2009 by Vladifan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Gordie Howe hat trick 110 Report post Posted September 30, 2009 They won the Elitserien championship last season, mainly because Gustavsson was their goalie. Now he's on Toronto and we're pounding a 17 year-old kid. He looks great for a 17 year-old playing against the Red Wings though. You have to give him that.

Exactly. Their forward corps are outplaying Detroit's, but damn Howard has done alright out there. But Farjestad's goalie is definitely untested. Poor kid.

Vladifan 680 Report post Posted September 30, 2009 who's in net? Just catching up here so if nobody's answered you, it's Howard and he's doing fine. I also love the music they're playing. Even the Swedish-type polka stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chunkylover 26 Report post Posted September 30, 2009 Howard hasn't faced a lot but stopped a couple good chances. Same with the defense. The Wings have been really controlling the puck. Not trying to sound cocky or get ahead of myself, but how did Chicago lose yesterday? Is Zurich really that much better than Farjestad? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do they always play American tunes in Swedish rinks? they play american tunes in just about every rink around the world. they love them some 80s dance tunes in the KHL... also just wanted to add my sympathies for the swede's goalie...he looks a little starstruck out there.
