After being pointless in the last 2 games, Swedish coach Sam Hallam decided to move Lucas Raymond to the 2nd unit.
Hallam insist that the change is mostly due to give a different look to the opponents. He likes to change it up even if they are currently first in the Group B of the tournament. We have to assume that the Wings' star player would need to show more points on the scoreboard to find himself in the 1st line again.
''Right in the middle of the tournament, it may be time to raise the intensity further,'' Hallam told Swedish website Aftonbladet.se ''We want to see how we can get the most out of the lineup... We have kept the units together to get enough data and feeling to work together. This feels like a good time to try something a little different.''
We have to assume that the Wings' star player would need to show more points on the scoreboard to find himself in the 1st line again.
Today, Sweden will face Latvia, we'll see how it goes.
