Team Sweden’s Olympic Roster

  1. Looks like Edvinsson didn’t make the cut. Pretty shocking they’d go with Broberg over him.

  2. Edvinsson probably on standby for injures.

    No Ekholm either though. Idk who gets the nod between those two.

  3. OEL makes sense he’s having a good rebound year for the leafs but Edvinsson should’ve been in over Broberg and Brodin. Unfortunate for sure.

  4. They definitely went with a veteran d core. I see why but ed is better then a few of these guys.

  5. Ed for sure got snubbed here, but totally fine with him getting some much-needed time off.

  6. Definitely bs but really glad Ed will get time to rest. Hopefully Larks and Razor come back in better shape than they did after 4 nations last year

  7. So after looking at the rosters for both Sweden and the USA and reading the comments on both threads about why this player over that player.

    I have noticed people are forgetting the one big thing players have the right to decline to play and with the way the League schedules a few teams the RedWings specifically with heavy back to back and multiple games with only travel days as down time.

    A lot of the players people are wondering are probably turning down the invite so they can rest.

    Just my thoughts on the matter

  8. Ed is playing on one of the best d-pairs in the leauge. How THE FUCK DID THEY PICK Broberg over him????

  9. Pretty dangerous team. Really the only change I’d make is going Ed over Broberg, but I can see why he was left off when he hasn’t even played 150 games in the NHL yet.

    Someday our tree man will help see Team Sweden to glory

  10. With the news that was coming out of Italy about the venue I can see Players putting their safety over a gold medal that in the long run means less than Stanley Cup on there resume come contract time

  11. OEL and Broberg over Edvinsson is just plain stupid as fuck

    But hey he gets a break

  12. yeah Edvinsson got snubbed… this is why i hate our swedish leadership in hockey right now

  13. Edvinsson is a crazy snub, but I’m okay with our guys not getting hurt at the Olympics while the Atlantic remains a damn thunder dome

  14. I get why it happens, but I’d really like to see the Olympic teams GM’d by someone who isn’t an active NHL GM. The favoritism is too blatant.

  15. I’m surprised, like all of you, that Ed wasn’t picked. I guess we can look on the bright side that he gets some time off and won’t be risking an injury in the Olympics. For sure, next Olympics, Ed and ASP will both be on the roster and mainstays on the Swedish blue line for many years to come.
