What big name players played for them...?
Think about it: The Detroit Red Wings have SEVEN Swedes playing for them, three of which have been great for Team Sweden...
Henrik Lundqvist was still in the playoffs with the NY Rangers, so he didn't play for Team Sweden...
Peter Forsberg declined to play because of his foot injury.
Daniel Alfredsson didn't go because the Senators are still amidst a playoff run.
Even though they lost in the semifinals to Canada, then lost in the bronze medal round to the Russians... The Swedes have been some tough contenders since they took gold in the World Champs AND the 2006 Olympics!
