GDT: Game 2 : Czech Republic Vs Russia | 9AM EST 3PM CET | CZE 4 - 3 RUS

[Swipes]

Canada sent a powerhouse team that year and the Czech crowd was behind us when we smoked the Russians for gold.

Seems like Czech fans get behind Canadian teams whenever we’re not playing the Czechs when it’s in the Czech Republic.

Haha yeah, I think we liked the team and the players. It was a strong team!

 

[Czechboy]

That QF in 2015 vs Finland was the best game I've seen live. Great memory

You ever seen the Jagr replay of the goal with the Titanic song in the background?lol Well worth the Google!

Tht 2015 Canadian team was legendary.. they were like the 2005 Junior team.. just on another level.

FTR... Still mad about the Koukal goal being disallowed.lol

 

[Czechboy]

4:3 will not be enough to beat team Russia.

100% right

Hoping Dostal makes 25 saves in the third and we get an empty netter for 5-3

 

[Czechboy]

Best of luck in the 3rd. Been a good game to kick off our Christmas tradition in the hockey world.

Perfect TSN day

1pm has Canada US and Sweden/Finland
2pm has Czechs/Canada at Spengler!

 

[Alex K]

Good pressure early in the 3rd

 

[Star Ocean]

Bad news for sweden if czech wins. Could mean quarter against Russia with our suckery in medal rounds that is an exit.

 

[Neutral Hockey Fan]

Off topic, but is the ice surface NHL size or Olympic size?

 

[tictactoe]

Dostal looks even better now.

 

[Czechboy]

Russia back to being Russia... devastating to see Lauko sitting there in a knee brace. Clears concussion protocol to fly to Europe to get knocked out in 53 seconds.

 

[Daeni10]

Any points for the czech would be awful for my german team

The crossover to this pool will be ugly no matter what.. German team could be ripe for an upset as well as the Czechs.

In a few years it'll be NHL but right now it is Olympic give or take... eg. just the regular arena to my knowledge. They didn't change it.

Feel so bad for the guy. Hope he gets better soon but looks like he is our for the tournament

Haha, no! I'll take a look though

 

[SixStrings]

The refs are horrible for both sides this game.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

I feel like I am watching soccer with all this diving

 

[Canada4Gold]

Any points for the czech would be awful for my german team

You could beat Russia and send them to the relegation side if they also lose to Canada, and USA?

I agree that's not likely though. A regulation win against the Czechs would still be sufficient if they lost to Canada and USA

Good day indeed my friend.

I kind of like it being Europe so the games start early here in Canada.

 

[Czechboy]

Didn't like the call... but Russia has, as expected, tilted the ice. Dostal is so key in this third! I expect a goal or the puck not to leave our zone for 2 minutes.

 

[Smif]

Czech's couldn't afford to take a penalty. This should be a goal.

 

[Canada4Gold]

Hybrid according to TSN announcers. 91 feet not the full 100 feet.

Only gripe is I prefer the usual 10am and 2pm starts... I feel a little less guilty for day drinking in first period.lol
