The 2015 Canadian team?lol

We haven't beat Sweden or Germany in my son's lifetime and those are our next 2 opponents.

We win 1 quarter a decade and that is our next match after that.

Just happy to be here!

Good luck, my friend. Your team has really impressed. If Canada doesn't win Gold, I hope you do.

Even Zaruba is on the fun...

Translation: Suchanek is 4th in save percentage and 10th in points right now.lol

Sapo with 4 points!

Kulich with 3 goals

Svozil with 3 points

The minutes were very evenly played out as Rulik rolled the lines... almost everyone was between 14 to 19 minutes.

And here are the top 5 tournament scorers (note all 5 played Austria)

It's a great start for sure.

And for fun:

Suchanek is tied with Sale and ahead of Szturc in scoring. Just like we all predcited.

Jiříček - Jiříček
Svozil - Svozil
Galvas - Galvas

Would be super funny.

It'd be damn good too. Need to give credit to Wooren for this one, he told me this about 6 months ago. Now I 'get it'.haha

Kaberle brothers x 3

Then we still have siblings in the Krals, Badinka's and Kos's. Save money on hotel rooms since the team will be made up of about 8 families.lol Maybe get the Klima twins and try and steal back the Hejduk's too.haha

Ok, I'm done babbling... Spart up 1-0!

It feels like 1998 to 2002 again.lol

I even heard a new name today that seems to be projecting well...

Adam Csabi is apparantly 'not too shabby' (Sandler reference)



I think the important thing is that, win or lose, scouts may start taking longer looks at Czech prospects and a few more get drafted or signed... eg. Szturc as an overager, Suchanek as an overager because grabbing Spacek as an overager is looking like a steal now (and probably Malik).

It's a shame everyone is arguing at home with Hadamczak (idiot) because there are some nice things happening after 3 years without a first rounder...

6-1! Just wow! Good for them! A lot of former world junior players on that team too!
Secured 1st place!

My dream is them vs Ambri (Chlapik and Spacek)...lots of hockey to be played though. I cannot remember babbling on about so much winning on here in my lifetime.lol

7-1 on our first PP... we scored 6 at even strength and shorthanded. What is happening?

Kempny looks like Makar out here.lol

David Tomasek assist. I remember when he played in Bellville Bulls of OHL. I really like him as a prospect.
 
5 minute major review during Slovak game... I thought I'd go back to our last medal win (2005) and see how we've done agains the Swedes. It's awful!

2003 Sweden 1 and Czechs 3 (last time we beat them)
2005 Our last medal

2006 Sweden 3 and Czechs 2
2007 Swedes 5 and Czechs 1 (Quarters)
2008 Sweden 4 and Czechs 2
2010 Swedes 6 and Czechs 3
2011 Swedes 6 and Czechs 3
2013 Swedes 4 and Czechs 1
2015 Sweden 5 and Czechs 2
2017 Sweden 5 and Czechs 2
2018 Sweden 3 and Czechs 1
2019 Sweden 10 and Czechs 1
2020 Sweden 5 and Czechs 0 (Quarters)
2021 Sweden 7 and Czechs 1
2022 Sweden 3 and Czechs 1 (Bronze game)


Since 2005 we have met 12 times and the Swedes have won 12 times.

They tend to average about 6 goals to our 2. They just cancelled our chance for our first medal in 17 years this summer.

Last time we beat Sweden was 2003 and most our team was born in 2003 or 2004. I think not one Czech player was alive the last time we beat Sweden at this tournament (eg. the 2003 victory was in December 31st of 2002) and our old guys were born in 2003 (Svozil)

I hope the Czechs are not riding high on Twitter and buying into the hype. They need to be VERY humble tomorrow. Put on their workboots and stick to their game! We are literally looking for a once in a lifetime win tomorrow.

Okay, it's a legendary win for Sweden against the Czech Republic, I'm just surprised you missed it.

The last 11 games were won by Sweden with a combined score of 58-15. That's pretty good for Sweden, but the streak will be broken tomorrow with a Czech win. And I hope it will only be a small defeat.
