This game was insane!! USA had leads of 2-1 3-1 5-3 ... Then the two teams traded goals in the final 2 minutes of the game, but USA ended it winning 8-7 in Overtime winning the Bronze medal... Tough scene for team Sweden who were less than a minute away from playing in the gold medal game...
Lindblom choked big time twice in a row, I've never seen worse goaltending, he was actually frozen solid by the pressure. WOW. I hope the kid survives this, but I don't see how.
@@somguy728 if he has any type of professional mentality (which I’m sure have gotten him this far) then he’ll be able to collect the positives from the tournament and be proud of his achievement, as well as learn what he could’ve done better. What I’m saying is I don’t think he’ll have problems recovering, a hockey career is way more than the junior World Cup. As a swede our finish was disappointing but I’d blame the players more than the goalie.. we wouldn’t be anywhere near the semifinals without him, and we’re only 35 seconds away from the gold medal game..
First USA scored to make it 1-0. Then USA scored to make it 2-0. Then Sweden scored to make it 2-1. Then USA scored to make it 3-1. Then Sweden scored to make it 3-2. Then Sweden scored to make it 3-3. Then USA scored to make it 4-3. Then USA scored to make it 5-3. Then Sweden scored to make it 5-4. Then Sweden scored to make it 5-5. Then Sweden scored to take a 6-5 lead. Then USA scored to make it 6-6. Then USA scored to take 7-6 lead. Then Sweden scored to make it 7-7. Then USA scored to make it 8-7. Then the game ended.
As a swede these two games has been tough.. so close in both semis and this game. If our powerplay worked better im pretty sure we would play for gold. Altho i gotta say i get a bit teary seeing how all of the incredible canadian fans keep cheering for us, got some 2012 vibes when we played Russia in the gold medal game. Amazing, thanks Canada!
I think it's best that Sweden played in this match. They do not match up well against the Canadian team, I think it would have been like 6-1 for Canada if Sweden made the final
What an awesome game juniors! So exciting, so skillful, so much turn-arounds! Thank you for the show and sportsmanship. U r all welcomed back to Canada! Am born Montreal now in Vancouver! 😎😎🙌🙌🍻🍻
This is definitely the game of the tournament. Neither side backing down from start to finish. Gotta give the US extra props because the crowd was clearly against them and you could hear it whenever Sweden scored.
Lol well Sweden only scored six goals after that killing “dagger”, tying the game three times to take it to OT, must’ve taken the life right out our game 😅
Salvaged a bronze after a 6 goal streak by Canada in the SF. But it wasn't easy...those Swedes put up a great fight. To think had they not committed the icing error late in the SF against Czechia they'd play for gold right now instead of being out of the medals...I applaud you Sweden. GG. 😁👏🏾
@@Mitch-ui8ps sweden is The 3rd best hockey nation in history. Get your facts straight. Canada at n1 and Russia at n2. We have 2 olympic golds, 2006 swe won both gold in the world champs and in olympics. Sweden won gold in The world championship back to back 2017 & 18. Also in 2013 and 2004. We are not as good as we were 10 years ago but we still are a easily top5 team in The world today.
You should take a look from our perspective. You have no idea how much ridicule or shame that america puts on canada because we cant compete in most sports with you guys. Always laughing at us . We will forever hate the usa. Phuck yall
Don't take it personally. I like rooting for the other team because I like rooting for the underdog. The US is NEVER an underdog in anything. Except perhaps soccer.
What an impressive game! Not only did it have 15 goals, but it was really exciting, especially when it went to OT! I am really happy for the US, but also sad that the Swedish goalie didn't get a medal, the man was a beast! Sweden put on a good fight. Congrats USA from Finland!🇫🇮
Nobody likes cheering for the overconfident, arrogant loudmouths who think they are the greatest at everything. Who would cheer for the most classless team in the tournament? Lost all respect for the us team when they pulled the antics they did after beating Canada in 2021.🤮
As a Swede I feel good for the support we got from the canadian crowd. But mostly its's that neighbor thing. If Sweden plays Canada in Finland, the Finns cheer for Canada.
Sweden’s two last games was their best in the tournament yet they lost today as well. Congrats I guess to the USA. It was a great hockey match to watch!👏😅👍
Poor Lindbom played so well all tournament, and then this disaster. Maybe a slight drop in focus or motivation from having to play so soon after the previous day’s deflating loss.
Just about every goal the US scored it looked like most of their fans were like half cheering and and just casually clapping. Sad.. Kudos on the Bronze though fellas. Definitely an insane game to watch no doubt!
I'm Canadian and I usually cheer for Yanks vs European Top 6 Teams... unless their winning somehow hurts Team Canada... Underdog teams vs US are a different story...
The sixth american I agree he should have saved, not much else can be blamed on swedish goaltending. Lindbom (Goalie) have had a near flawless tournament. It´s the defending players letting him down. This game alone 6 out of 8 goals come from moronic mistakes by his teammates (excluding 2nd and 6th)
@@liverpoolfan6 I agree with some of what you said, but you missed something. Augustine (starting USA goaltender) was pulled after the 2nd period, so he gave up only 5. Mbereko gave up the other 2 Swedish goals. Lindbom on the other hand was on the ice for all 8 USA goals.
9 goals in one period! When's the last time THAT happened at ANY level, world level, NHL, anywhere??? Wow. What an amazing final day of the tournament. This match, and the epic Canada Czechia gold medal game.
@@nstag8r Has there been an NHL game or a world level hockey game where both teams have scored 10 or more each? I can imagine in the 8-7 and 9-8 games both coaches had to be majorly pissed with the defense, and the goalkeeper especially LOL
13:57 Team USA scores OT goal and everyone in the stands just got up and turned around to leave. Minimal cheering for the winner in such a hard fought game.
They are probably rushing off to eat dinner since the gold medal game was only an hour away from puck drop. Plus, I think most people in the crowd were pro-Sweden lol.
I am a little disappointed in the Canadian crowd, they got themselves a fantastic game well worth their money all be it with some less than stellar goal tending but they should have cheered for those kids at the end, despite the rivalry it's a neutral game that means nothing to us and we just beat them yesterday so why so salty

As a big NHL fan and hockey fan that lives in the U.S I always root for our neighbors to the north in any game except against us. I understand the rivalry but I really couldn't figure out why the fans don't cheer for their brother to the south. I mean we share a whole entire hockey league together! Regardless, I still love Canada and Canadian hockey though and look to visit soon 🇺🇲❤🇨🇦
I jokingly said at the end of the first period that it would be wild to see a 8-8 tie going into OT! instead it was 7-7.. had it been 8-8 i would be religious now. 😅
8-7. What an amazing showing of talent and skill. Maybe next year both countries can try and find goalies that could play on a junior B team. That was embarrassing to watch.
That last goal. Should the goalie not have tried to poke check or be more alert seems he just stayed motionless giving the guy all the time to get the puck and take the shot. Everyone just stood there watching.
It was embarrassing. He just stuck to that post instead of challenging the shooter. Easy goal. I don't know what happened. If he is scared or on Bahamas mentally. From the best goalie in the tourney to letting in 8 goals. Geez
I'm sorry but...the Swedish goalie was an absolute sieve! USA scored on shots my Mum could have stopped. Why didn't they pull him?!? They could have dressed a "D" and gotten better net-minding!
@@YoshMaster prob bc we the best at every sport in the planet most of the time, glad Canada won tho I played with all these kids in aaa my whole life. Cocky asl
@@tylermarietta5770 Theres more sports on the planet than basketball, baseball and american football. Your comment shows exactly why the whole world generally cheers for the other team against the USA.
@@tylermarietta5770 The US should statistically beat every country at every sport just based off of population and funding, yet they still manage to get cooked in almost every sport, I'd love to see your explanation for that
It's hard to maintain focus so soon after losing a chance to play for Gold... Yanks had the worst of it, because they played the late game and had to play again less than 24 hours later... Good on them, not giving up, plus finding a way to win this game... It wasn't pretty, but good on both teams, for fighting to the end, & giving us such an entertaining bronze medal match... won't be forgotten for quite some time...
