@bladedamus's rating of USA vs Sweden

@bladedamus rated the USA vs Sweden game 9.1 out of 10 in IHO on February 18, 2026. Final score: USA 2 – Sweden 1. Quarterfinals. Fan ratings and discussion on RateGame.

This felt seconds away from an all-out brawl the entire time, the Swedes not shying away from the aggression their American opponents were dishing out (even if they were tripping all over themselves). I was most impressed by their goalie who managed to keep things fairly locked down save for those all-important shots from the Hughes brothers. Sweden put up a good fight, but part of me believes they deserved to lose in those yellow eyesores.
