2nd Olympic Gold to Sweden today!

Were either of them Red Wings, perchance?

Actually they were two of the few non-nhl players in the national team, Stefan Liv and Mika Hannula , both played for the local team here in Jönköping at the time (Liv still does, he's over in the olympics this time aswell but probably be 3rd goalie after Lundqvist and the monster)

Liv was a Red Wings prospect, although I'm not sure if they still have his rights or not in the NHL. I know that some people seemed pretty high on him when they drafted him.

he was over there for a year but didn't succeed very well in the red wings organisation. goalies got it difficult to make it since it's so few positions in the team (duh...) so i think it was simply that at the time he wasn't good enough. So he came back here to his hometown and took gold in the swedish league instead

he is tempted to go abroad next season again, it'll probably be khl but maybe red wings still have some interest in him.
