People just like to complain about stuff. It's not like he tipped over a kid in a wheelchair on the way to getting his medal and then nut shots the presenter instead of letting the guy put it around his neck. He accepted the medal then tossed it to a guy in the crowd. "19 year old competitor leaves home for world tournament, team plays amazing, loses a tough game, reacts emotionally". Guarantee everyone bitching about what he did has never been in a position remotely like that.  

Also, it was a decent non-call on the hook or whatever on EP. And Sweden had a freebie when Gadjovich arm checked whats hos face to the ice. People blaming refs for outcomes of games is tiring. Want to win? Score more goals. End of story. 

I've been Lias Andersson before. When you lose the championship game, it's all you think about. The runner-up medal doesn't matter to you in the moment, but you come to appreciate it later, at least sometimes.

He got emotional. I acted like a sore loser at a similar age for a tournament far less important than the World Juniors, so I'm not going to judge.

@Green Building re: call, i suppose but to me the ref's took away Sweden's momentum on more than just that one call, but yup you do have to overcome that and other things sometimes to win. To me it seemed like more of a factor than it should have been but I'm sure others saw it differently.
