GDT: 2025 U18's

[Namejs]

Shots are *checks notes* 23-2 in favor of Sweden after the 1st

 

[theslatcher]

SOG 24-2 after first.

Two botched great chances from Sweden, could have easily been 4-0.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Sweden looks pretty unstoppable this year imo

 

[theslatcher]

RIP Germany

 

[theslatcher]

If Sweden needs to get better at something, it's the PK. Thankfully Frondell will fix that.

 

[Namejs]

And the comeback begins

 

[Maverick41]

RIP Germany

An we're back!!! /jk

This will still end badly, but I don't care. Only the game against Switzerland matters now. After that we'll see where we stand.
I don't care if you guys score 15 or more. It's actually fun watching your team play. This is a whole other level of hockey than what our boys are used to.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Why did they challenge that

 

[theslatcher]

Was GI by #10 as it's written in the rulebook, but whatever. No use throwing a fit over it.

 

[theslatcher]

Wait, the penalties were dangerous equipment and roughing?

Edit: dangerous equipment now changed to delaying the game, which was what you expected at first.

What's the record for shots on goal?
Asking for a friend.

Might be 66, 15 to go so I think you're safe.

When is he scheduled to join this team?

When is he scheduled to join this team?

His flight leaves 8 tomorrow morning, so there's a chance he plays vs the US.

Well there was a women's Olympic qualifier once where Slovakia beat Bulgaria 82-0. I don't recall off hand the shot total for the game, but obviously Slovakia had at least 82 shots on goal. I think it's reasonable to conclude that they had slightly more than 82 shots on goal. Probably in the neighborhood of 100 at minimum.

 

[Namejs]

I hope we score a few quick ones on Canada so that I can go back to sleep

 

[Namejs]

Murnieks with a nice breakaway and a goalpost

An even game so far

 

[McMozesmadness]

Smith reminds me of Josh Morrissey

Nice finish

 

[Namejs]

And again our lower pairing Ds shit their own bed, this time Laugalis.

 

[MeHateHe]

Got the Can/Lat game on mute because the Habs made the playoffs. Have they said why Reschny and Verhoeff aren’t playing?

 

[Namejs]

Spigulis with a completely unforced error in his own zone.

And it was Saperins who lost his man in the 2nd goal.

So basically our 4th liners and bottom pairing Ds are a major issue. This team is lacking depth and the talent level really drops off.

 

[Czechboy]

FWIW.. the German's got 4 goals on Sweden too. They scored 9 goals on Czechs and Swedes. Just sayin!

 

[JohnWillow]

Jesus. The Latvian goalkeepers ffs.

Sad that Kravalis got in that crash, should of been a number 1...

 

[kutka]

Medal contender latvia

Would love for them to beat the Swiss. Getting tired of Switzerland not even trying and just scraping up with their one win.
