Semifinals

After a somewhat questionable loss against Slovakia the other day, Tre Kronor finished 3rd in the group. Russia won the group with 5 consecutive wins and look extremely strong, I've got 3 kronor (humour) saying Russia will win the Gold. In the quarter finals we played the Swiss (who played well over the expectations finishing 2nd in their group after victories against Canada and the Czech Republic!). Fortunately we won 6-2, goals scored by Mats Sundin (2), Daniel Alfredsson, Fredrik Modin, Henrik Sedin and Henrik Zetterberg.

Semifinals next, against the Czech Republic. It'll be an interesting game considering they beat us bad on home turf last world cup. If we can just pick it up a notch and "Henke" plays insanely well, that we're spoiled with, I think we can win this. To be continued.
