The team definitely should've played better as a whole. A fluke goal like that against Belarus shouldn't be decisive. it was so unfair to pin all the blame on Salo.
I HEARD WHEN BENNETT SENT GARY SHAWN AND DET THE INVITE TO COME HAVE THERE JERSEYS RETIRED.THEY ALL 3 SENT A SELFIE OF THEM MOONING HIS ASS...IN OTHER WORDS FUCK YOU!!!!
Put the blame on salo all you want but just remember they had sundin, alfredsson, naslund, and lidstrom all out on the ice at one point. They still couldn’t score…
Well it can't all be put on Tommy Salo. Sweden shouldn't be 4-4 against Belarus at that stage of the game. It's a team sport. Goalie mistakes are just more glaring but I bet all the players missed a lot of chances and lost a lot of pucks at crucial times across the whole team.
They had all match to win it. Belarus came to quarterfinal with score 3:22. They should easily lead 5:0 in The third period and smile about that goal till today.
Yeah, well, history is going to change after I save the World Trade Center and help the United States Women's and Men's Ice Hockey team to win Gold and Make America Great Again. First I have to make a relationship with Princess Diana and Prince Charles in the early 1980s and 1990s. Blast from the past and go forward to the future. I shall revise the normal timeline to replace the original timeline. I will be a time traveler hero from the time machine. Get help from Reverend Billy Graham and his son Reverend Franklin Graham. We will win for the United States to make a miracle for Gold in U.S. Women and Men's hockey held in Salt Lake City in 2002, and make a victory speech live on television and ask Prince William and Kate Middleton to get married in 2002 followed by the Golden Jubilee of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II for 50 years on the throne, Princess Diana, Prince Charles, and the Royal Family will go for a State Dinner at the White House to meet House President George W. Bush and First Lady Laura Bush, to honor the Team USA Olympic Champions and the joint meetings of Congress of Princess Diana and Prince Charles of Wales at the Capitol, and Prince Andrew and Sarah Ferguson will be at the House Gallery with the U.S. House of Representatives, and the United States. Cammi Granato will be with me and the rest of her Ice Hockey Gold Medalists for men and women, and my President of Art Instruction Schools Tom Stuart from Minneapolis, Minnesota. Fight back against terrorism.
Everyone here says they feel bad about Salo. I feel bad about team Belarus, they won the game and everybody just talked about Salo. How would you feel? Also, I wanted them to win medal after this, this could have been their last chance. Respect from Slovakia.
zaujimavy postreh. tiez ma nieco podobné napadlo, ale Salo bol v tej dobe s Hasekom najlepsi brankár preto to bola senzácia ze taky hrac nevie ci to pustit nad bránu, ci to vyrazit hlavou ci to chytat do lapacky, tak spravil nieco medzi. Priklánam sa na stranu tych co si myslia ze to bola Salova chyba, hoci Mezin bol tiez dost dobry.
Tommy Salo was the only good swedish player in this game. He did not betray Sweden his defensmen and forwards did. But this is why I love sports aswell, not often but sometimes these things happen. Sweden Belarus hockey 2002, USSR vs USA Hockey 1980, USSR vs USA 1972 Basketball. George Forman vs Moorer 1994 are some on the ones that came up in my head right now.
