Did I just read this?If fairness losing talent from what is now Slovakia is a big reason.
Gimmick Teams: 3 wins 0 losses.
I think it makes the tournament more legitimate than if they had sucked.
Slovakia had to play Worlds in C and B category with players like Stastny, Hossa, Gaborik, Bondra, Demitra, Chara and Palffy on their prime ... Also played semi-final and lost one-goal game against Canada in Vancouver.It's not Nagano but I'd say it was pretty good result and more recent.
was waiting for Kempny to show up on the ice to f.... something up.
my sense was right.. I believe he's the worst defender in the tournament.
That I do not understand at all? It is more of a travisty the more successfull the all star teams are, imagine a none national team win a so call international tournament. It would give the tournament more legitimate if they would lose everything, so they are not in the way for the real teams and can be more easily forgotten.
Why Team Europe cant select the best Czech Players in the next round. Makes no sense.
Can they get Finns / Swedes or Russians too depending who doesn't make it ?![]()
