Video: Swedish goalie gaffe gives Petteri Nokelainen easy goal

From the Czech Hockey Games, a tune-up for the IIHF World Championships, here is Sweden's goalie not exactly being helpful to his defense. Although we're pretty sure former Boston Bruins and Anaheim Ducks forward Petteri Nokelainen didn't mind after turning this gaffe into a shorthanded goal:

You know, we've always found that goaltending bloopers are really enhanced by the presence of jaunty electropop.

The keeper who bungled this play is Viktor Fasth, a 28-year-old who plays for AIK and has gotten a look from the Edmonton Oilers, seeking to follow in the grand tradition of Tommy Salo (after, you know, following in the grand tradition of Tommy Salo).

From Sports Expressen (translated), Fasth on the goal: "It's [poop] that happens and unfortunately it happens today." That's going on our fridge.
