Euro Hockey Tour: Euro Hockey Tour 2016-2017

World class defense.

*Gets dominated by KHL-forwards. Czechs win 8-4.

Beat Finland!

 

[Jussi]

And just like that, we're second in tournament standings...

 

[KurtSloan]

no reason to overestimate this result, but I am looking forward to WCH.

Kempny is better than Kindl, that's obvious. Kindl played only about 30 games for Florida. Kempny played 50 games, but for Chicago. Difference.

8 goals against defense which was combined from Hedman, Stralman, Klingberg, Ekman-Larsson, Brodin and Rosen.

I just found out I am too oldschool. Commentators said we schould change pace of the game more often. I was like "exactly, slower and more creative". Then Kindl did it Once and we appeared under 5 minutes pressure. Once we played in full speed we looked good. Swedes are still putting it together though....

Dont want to be pessimistic but there were only 4 forwards from KHL in czech team.

 

[Mirinho]

nice match and super fans in Budejovice

Haha, true. Jan Kovar is one of the best forwards in Europe, just like Cervenka.

Birner is PPG player in NLA, and played on World Cup team.

They are not like your average KHL and Euro forwards.

And then there is Voracek, obviously, with 4 assists today.

This is all about team work imo. Not sure wheather its enough for medal but it would be nice. I ike Cervenka that much but I have to admit he is very consistent on this level. Kovar is ok, but his skating. I was very immpressed by forwards from czech league. But this ussually changes in WHC where they lack experiences so we therefore there still will be guys like Kaspar etc in team...

Sweden is letting in so many weird goals. Finland just scored via the face of Tömmernes.

I'm concerned about our goalies but I'm not concerned with how we play. Many of these situations happen because we're not playing 110%. Hockey is about mentality.

 

[IceHockeyDude]

Rantanen has been disappointing. Pulju is playing a bit better.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Bad and boring hockey......

 

[joe89]

Watching hockey on SVT I'm actually happy TV4 has the World Champs one last time.

 

[EK47]

lol Sweden our forwards are nowhere near good enough

 

[bDtKarlsson]

We need goalscorers so badly. Rakell, forsberg or arvidsson please.

 

[IceHockeyDude]

IMO Sweden's dmen are better goal scorers than the forwards

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Looks worse than a normal EHT-team.

 

[tade]

Wow, that was such an exciting overtime between Czech Republic and Russia, Czechs played really well.

I agree. The biggest concern is our goaltending.
