EHM The Blue Line

Hopefully he gets a looong ban. Then we might have a chance to get into top 6.
Edit: misspelling...

He thinks he is better than some of our players? I think even Pihlström would be taken to Caps setup somewhere...

Jyri Marttinen will not play next season in Skellefteå. Hopefully he comes back to Jyp, i miss he's great defensive playing so much. "Tikkakoski's mannequin" has been so big model for today's hockeyplayers from Tikkakoski.

Marttinen! He is a god of under-rated defensemen.

Hopefully he comes back to Finland. Dunno why he hasn't played in international tournaments, he is very good def. defenseman. And when Jyp sold him to Elitserien, he was Jyp's best scorer, 44 games with 13+17=30, +/- 7, 78 penalty minutes. Very good +/-, cause Jyp failed whole season.

I think i've figured out the playoff system for the Allsvenskan Qualfication process, but I'm wondering if the tournament will only have 5 teams this year or how that will work? From what I understand their are three divisions (North, Middle & South) who are playing a playoff which would make three seeds and two from the Allsveskan.

Anyone know the answer?

All these five has been very good this season and I don't see nothing but good things in the future for them, especially Josefson and Krüger.

dont forget Owuya!!!!!

He's not that good, yet.

Hasn't seen him that much as he's Djurgården's third goalie and mostly on loan to teams in Allsvenskan.

yes, but if he could regain last years form from while he played for Almtuna he could be special...

You probably know more about his form during his time there than me. I have no clue, I never watched any of his games there.

He had a really good season in Almtuna last year, but he has not impressed this season in Örebro SK or Mora IK. I think that Wesslau leave after the season and I dont know if Ridderwall signs new contract. If not, he (Owuya) could be backup next year if Mikael Tellqvist signs a contract with Djurgården.

Bad incident in the KHL, a fan assaulted a back up goalkeeper during a game. Here there is a video: http://www.russianhockeyfans.com/khl/vi ... e-163.html

Isn't that Kolesnik who was in Colorado Avalanche a few years ago?

I must say that it's very bad security when a fan can break in to the bench without the guards stoping him.
I hope gets fine.

The very same Helmer. That's really bad! What kind of idiot would do that!?

Yes, him

Djurgården made it to the finals in the Elitserien playoffs this Thursday.

They will face the regular season winners HV71, Djurgården finished in 2nd so it's the two best teams in the regular season that will meet in the finals. It will be awesome!

After two games in final in Elitserien it'egual at one win each.

This thursday it was Djurgården who was the home team and won with 4-3, this saturday it was HV's turn to be home team and they won in overtime 4-3. Tonight is the third game in Stockholm, which I hope Djurgården will win.

There's some bad news though, Djurgården will not be allowed to have any fans in the upcoming two away games (game 4 and 5) because of that they were throwing things down on the ice and on the seats in the section below them and those who sat on that section threw things back. So for safety reasons the two teams has decided that this is the best solution. I think it's very bad that things like this happen, again, to Djurgården. But I don't think HV71 had a good away fan section in their arena, this was almost next to the family section where families with kids were sitting. But it's the "fans'" own fault, the big losers in this is those of the Djurgården fans who wanted to go and enjoy to see good hockey.

Has anyone else heard yet of the plight with Moscow Dynamo? It was terrible to hear about this just now over on TSN.ca

http://tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=318976

It's unbelievable This can happen only in KHL...
As one comment below that article says: Time to go shopping, Burke

Well, Dominik Hasek is still super class goalie. His HC Pardubice is leading 3-0 in final series againt HC Vitkovice and they're on 10 games winning streak in playoffs.

Considering he's 45 (!) years old, his .938% in playoffs and .922% in regular season are superb.

It's a pity there's no more Moscow Dynamo. They're one of the few Russian clubs I've managed in EHM. Hope someone can save them before it's too late, although I can't believe that they don't even have an arena to fit 10,000 supporters.

Jyp won bronze medal in Sm-league. They won Kalpa 4-0 tonight.

It was last game for Kalpa's Kalle Sahlstedt (5x gold in Sm-league) and Mika Strömberg (-95 World Champion) and Jyp's goalie Sinuhe Wallinheimo (Gold in Sm-league at -09, Calder Cup in Hershey at -97).

Sinuhe Wallinheimo make contract with Jyp at 89-90. He played few years before going to HIFK for one season. Then he went to USA to Denver University, where he played three years. Next two years he spend in ECHL and AHL. He won Calder Cup in 1997. His role in N-A was interesting if we compare to other top goalies: he was backup goalie and Hershey's head coach let him play, when he wanted opposite goalie out (SW's role was backup goalie/enforcer). In -97 AHL playoffs, he fought against Neil Little. Overally he played 2 playoff games with 17 penalty minutes . Otherwise, SW said in one interview that he was in goal at Hershey practice without mask. Hershey's former head coach said that: "are you man or not? You don't need mask!" So SW played without mask.

In 98-99 he came back to Sm-league, to Lukko. He played one year in Finland before going to 2. Bundesliga. People thought that SW's career is over, but he played superbly in German leagues, developing one of the best goalies in DEL.

Next two years he played in Färjestad, Elitserien. He won silver in 2004. Then he made contract with Jyp, where he played to end of his career (except loan contract to Moscow Dynamo at 07-08).

There's some video from his career:

There's no better showman in hockeyworld.

Sinkku-show is over. But like Freddie Mercury sang: Show must go on

HV71 won the 6th final in Elitserien after overtime, this match was played in Stockholm, with 3-2 against my beloved Djurgården and they are now Swedish Champions after 4-2 in total games. Though the series ended 4-2 to HV it must have been one of the closest final series ever, if not the closest: out of 6 games played 5 went to overtime and the one that didn't was the first one where Djurgården won with one goal in regular time.

Sure it feels sad, but Djurgården's season has been far beyond expectations and it was very strong of them to end second in regular season, HV was first, and making it through quarter finals and semi finals. I really look forward to next season, but first it's a long and nice Silly Season.
