EPTMaybe im a revisionist-historian.
BTW nowhere did I say "bad" just not really in the same conversation as "Canada/Russia/USA/Sweden" the current big-4 imo.

I have similar feelings about Sweden letting Finland go (slightly simplified...), would have been a great hockey team ! | ||

Any player who captains a team the calibre of Sweden for an extended period of time would no doubt be a 1st year of eligibility Hall of Famer. No wonder Mats Sundin is in the Hall and Lindros is spending all his time donating money to hospitals trying to buy his way into the HHOF. The blue lines are closer to the goal lines (compared to the NHL) making those bombs from the point even harder to stop. | ||
