2022 Hlinka Gretzky Cup

[FourQuarters]

It's rare for Czech players to play in the USHL and NCAA, right? Hrabal isn't his best, but you can't usually blame your goalie.

 

[Chainshot]

In fairness... He got smoked!lol. If he's standing that shot doesn't even come close. I doubt the Swede thought he was scoring. I could be wrong as I'm cranky right now though

I was thinking more the 3rd goal. He's holding the post and shifts out. That's coaching to me since he's still down.

TSN just said we have ten shots at 5 on 3... No goals.

 

[Czechboy]

Nice Hlinka piece by tsn...

 

[Czechboy]

Period 3... I'm thinking sale and Petr need to step up a little

 

[Czechboy]

That Swedish PK is awesome... They have demolished us in beautiful fashion

 

[Czechboy]

What a move... Ok top line.. do something

 

[Chainshot]

Gotta ask, what the hell was with that clunker of a pass at the Swedish blueline that started all of that? Woof.

 

[Czechboy]

I just scared the shit out of everyone here... That caabi chance from zidlicky was A plus

 

[Chainshot]

As the Hamburglar would say - Hrabal robble.

Attendance has been horrific for the tournament. Did I miss something?

 

[Czechboy]

Game over... Hrabal is Koskinen (who I like)... It was feeling good for awhile

Swedes are better

That's my gripe... Why did we add Gretzky to name and.move it? I see zero improvement

 

[landy92mack29]

Button has a undeserved hate for Hrabel like Ferrero does for Askarov lol

 

[Czechboy]

Jakub Dvorak has looked good.. I like his game

He definitely has leadership.

He really seems to hate him... Ferraro had a Finn he hated too... He just signed a new NHL contract... Armia

I'd love to be there but most don't care for junior hockey in August when it's lake season. Not that I think tickets are expensive but economy is in the tank thanks to a certain someone which likely doesn't help. Shame though it's good hockey...better than regular season nhl imo

 

[Czechboy]

Congrats Sweden... Zero complaints.. you played awesome. Good luck tomorrow

 

[Czechboy]

Swedish backup can dance too

 

[Czechboy]

Call it a hunch but hrabal just saw his draft stock plummet. I don't blame him at all ftr.

 

[Czechboy]

When you see the medal table... Canada with 22 out of 26... But this is the fourth or fifth Sweden medal here.. they are awesome here

Didn't say the name but yes. Don't think ticket prices are the main issue for lack of people though

Sweden’s depth, impressive bp and great shooting won the game. Thought a lot of Czech forwards looked quite good. Great to see the Czechs finally producing some skilled high-end prospects.

For Sweden the usual suspects (Stenberg, Nordh, Lindstein, Sandin-P, Erliden) had good games. I also have a thing for David Edström. So strong on the puck, smart and an exceptional penalty killer.
