Did they set a record for most goals in a minute?

You have to think so.

Hattrick for Becher after 0 goals all tournament.

Sale 0 pts in this 8 goal madness.

What a game.

 

[Adam Michaels]

4 points for Kulich. Who said that they hated his reactions again?

He sucks and he will always suck. Says the guy who watches him score practically every game he plays against Laval.

Congratulations to Czechs on their Bronze Medal. Holy crap, Kokko really helped Finland choke this game away. Fins completely dominated Czechs, but Czechs kept hanging around.

Czechs scored 3 PPGS, a SHG, a 6 on 5 goal (net empty), one ESG (the game winning goal, which was an awful goal by Kokko) then 2 empty net goals. Unreal.

Sale assisted on the game tying goal. He made the cross seam pass to Kulich for the one-timer. Rebound went to Becher.

when will teams learn that playing soft, laidback, defensive hockey when they have the lead is recipe for disaster?

6v5 with a 1 goal lead and they weren’t pressuring the puck at all, it was bound to happen.

Ridiculous choke job. But Kokko looked ready to choke it away in the second half of the third. Even the saves he made were shaky. Very sloppy last 10 minutes from Finland, last 5 minutes specially. Completely un finland like. They stopped skating and lost all team structure.

Nyman & Kulich players of the games. Good choices.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

5 point game by Ondrej Becher: 3g, 2a.

He plays for Prince George (WHL), and is undrafted. This is his final year for the draft.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

4 goals by Czechs in 50 seconds! Wow. 2 empty netters, but still .... lol

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Well, 90 minutes to USA - Sweden final. Go Hutson!

 

[Whitesnake]

Just wondering...for whoever wants people to eat some crow about Mesar because of this WJC....do we still have the right to prefer Kulich based on the same tournament?

 

[LaP]

4 goals by Czechs in 50 seconds! Wow. 2 empty netters, but still .... lol

That has to be a record right?

The weird part for me was how easily Kulich adjusted to the AHL while Mesar was not able to stick in Laval as a 19 year old.

Rymon had a nice tournament too. He'll be 20 next draft not sure if still available but if he will then it's the kind of guys you can go for in the later rounds.

Mesar might turn out being the better overall pro, but that shot man .. would love to have that shot. lol

Yes. I mean so many of us wanted Kulich. I still don't understand that pick from Montreal. I like Mesar, but Kulich's shooting arsenal is sexy.

Mesar might have been there at Beck's pick, but then we don't have Beck.

So Kulich and Beck or Mesar
vs Beck & Mesar over Kulich.

IDK. I guess we'll see.

It has to be. I can't imagine it's not.

Even if Beck isn't there....Kulich and Luneau or Sapovaliv or Nyman.

 

[MarkovsKnee]

He's still eligible, like Becher this is his final year. Both would be good lower round picks. If they don't get drafted, they'll become amateur free agents. I imagine both get signed.

 

[Whitesnake]

As far as the US goes...I never imagined that Fowler had so many chances to shine and didn't take the opportunity. BUt it's a great experience for him nonetheless.

Augustine outplayed him this tournament. As much as I hate to admit that one.

Often times experience does that.

Yeah, Nyman was a real target for me at that draft. I was hoping he'd be there at the Hutson pick, but nope. We would have to have taken him at the Beck pick.

That 2022 draft was a really deep one though. One of the deepest ones I can recall. A lot of good players are going to come out of that 2nd round.

I really wanted us to grab more 2nd & 3rd round picks in that draft. We needed one more of both.

He's smaller. Kulich is more physically developed. It makes a difference.
