2024 Youth Olympics - Gangwon, Korea

Well, let's do this! Good luck Finland... I know absolutely nothing about this team or its players. So no prediction.
 
Repetitve but the stream is great again.. best free stream AINEC Legit thankful for this.

Larys back in net.. so they are doing the Hrabal thing which is very new to Czech hockey. Makes me wonder if Pavelec or Rulik are sending that message.

Looking forward to the twin towers and Kachlir.
 
Back and forth but Finn's have definitely had the better chances. Larys has been key so far on a few really good chances.
 
The goalie gets swapped for some equipment issues and then comes back later

Now Novak looks quite hurt

And Finn's on the PP after carrying most the play

It's not looking good.lol
 
Tbh.. I didn't notice the third line much in first 2 games. They've had some great moves and looks. Klaus is shifty
 
Novak is back... and notiecaable... Finn's have been better in first... if this period ends tied 0-0 I'd be happy
 
Novak, who can absolutely hammer it, got the post. Last 2 minutes have been all Czech.

I have decided my fav is Novak... he is so much fun to watch. Reminds me more of a classic Slovakian sniper than a Czech one to be honest.
 
Czechia really took over in those last couple of minutes. Finland was hanging on by a thread.
First 13 minutes were all Finn's and then the Czechs really heated up. Noticed a lot of picks of the Finn passes which are up the middle. Shame we didn't score always nice to have a lead when you've been outplayed.lol

The swings in play are pronounced at all junior levels but especially so at the U16 level. Larys did well early on to weather it for his team.

Finn goalie is stealing the show right now... we are firing some great high danger shots at him and he's stopping everything!!! Good for him.
 
Back to back 5 on 3's... normally I'd be encouraged but this Finn is channelling Pekka Rinne.lol
 
Our 10th Grade A scoring chance barely got by him.lol

Finn's cannot be happy with this period so far. Lots of silly penalties and all Czech momentum right now.

Belohorsky with a nice finish. ice is tilted big time right now. Finn's should call a timeout and regroup.
 
I appreciate that are 2 of them, mulitple angles and a lag free stream. But, yeah, the commentator is not the best.

Better streams than anything else we get though, even from the higher junior levels. And it's free, whereas others often want stupid money to stream.

This Finnish group doesn't look all particularly skilled offensively. Falling behind 2-0 is a tough hill to climb. But it's U16 hockey, so the tides can turn quickly (if they do).
 
Finn's with a great chance there... If they come back, they all owe their goalie a beer.
