Translation:

-I spent a lot of time in Karlstad during the lockout-year and hung out with Harald Lückner. In ten years I want to coach Farjestad. The people here are friendly and it's a good hockey-city with a lot of knowledge. Now I'm trying to convince my wife that we should move to Karlstad, Babcock says.

Babs also said that the game showed him that they have a good goalie in Howard, and that Zetterberg has a long way to go before he's in gameshape.

...what a random thing to say. But if there's a model franchise in Sweden, it's quite likely Färjestad BK. As much as I love my Frölunda, it's really hard to argue against the success Färjestad has had.

Yeah I thought Datsyuk out played Zetterberg in the 2 periods i watched ... but what do you expect when a guy missed ALL the previous preseason games..

Zetterberg is lazy and he sucks.

You heard it here first.

It's nice that Zetterberg is a long way from being in game shape and still he scores a great goal.

Ah! *looks for signs of the apocalypse*

Babcock is one of the best coach's in the league, he's been to the finals multiple times with multiple teams. Not sure how that is directly relevent, but it's fun to say.

He also holds the dubious honor of being the only coach in NHL history to lose in Game 7 of the Finals with two different teams. Poor fella.

great goal?

I guess it is currently considered "great" when whacking in a goal in past a heavily screened (at the time) 17yr old unnamed new goalie.

It completely shows that Z's totally ready for the season and will have no issues getting back into shape.

You typing this in every thread is lazy and it sucks.

Seriously, get a new gimmick.

*Insert player* is lazy and he sucks.

Wow, he must really be in love with Karlstad, considering in 10 years he'll only be in his mid 50s.

Mccarty could have scored that goal, their goalie left about 4 feet of the net wide open.
