00:00or did you learn any lessons and have you said wow moving forward i can't assume anyone's going
00:05to beat anybody as slovakia easily beat finland today and let's not be fooled by that 5-2 final
00:11score with sweden and italy today that game was 2-2 with like 10 minutes left it was but let's
00:18say i mean both teams were outshot badly goaltenders came up big there i don't i said i
00:22lost on finland all right what are you gonna do all right uh yeah i think you knew that as
00:25soon
00:25as the score final score was god that i lost there but they outshot him like a million to
00:29one here goalie played well or they hit the goalie they weren't didn't hit the right spots
00:32whatever i i would go back at it and do it again uh and i would uh just didn't work
00:37out game one here
00:38uh not sweden okay they uh did win there so uh and i do i don't think sweden played great
00:43in this game
00:44i don't i think they got the right draw as well but once again i don't i don't blame them
00:48i know
00:48what you said on twitter and i found that very interesting also i don't know why forsberg was
00:52the 13th forward he only played a little over a minute alvaro ekman larger doesn't play there i
00:57don't know what's going on there and as far as the background that's what i found more strange
01:00than anything else how does forsberg not play more than a minute well my whole thing is if you're not
01:06going to play him why dress him just say whatever dude we're not going to play you against italy
01:09you know i mean we're going to arrest you but i've said it before there's always drama with sweden
01:15it's in their nature like it just is like nylander didn't practice which was weird yesterday and
01:20then like he was hurt yeah there's always just sort of yeah but you know what he didn't with the
01:25leafs before he got there you know what i'm saying he missed a couple of games before the uh break
01:31he
01:31actually did though he was hurt he's been hurt all season long off and on all season long
01:37we'll give him that but it was a surprise to them like basically it was like oh boy okay but
01:42i don't know i think that they're looking at the big picture like it was deliberate they didn't play
01:46those guys today right it wasn't like they were punishing them like oh you're benched it was like
01:51i just don't i don't know like if you're me personally if i'm an nhl star and i know listen
01:56i'm not playing but why am i going to get dressed like maybe they just wanted the pregame warm-up
02:00and
02:01and all this but one thing george like you said it's their first games these guys don't play
02:06together they know each other but they don't play a lot internationally together they haven't been in
02:10the olympics since 2014 so it's not like oh they're swedish that they automatically play together
02:14so it's going to take a little while to get that chemistry going and really it doesn't matter
02:19how you do it right survive in advance that was an elimination game but it got the win you move
02:24on
02:24sweden are going to be dangerous in the big picture
