I cant help myself but: 4 - 2 Slovakia

Should be interesting to see how Hlavaj plays again.

I dont think he will be in the net today

Unfortunate but understandable. He was the only reason Slovakia had a chance. Not too sure about how they’ll fair now.

 

[Passionis]

Sweden will have no problems here -4-1

Sklenar is our number one. He was outstanding in friendly game with Czechs. No matter what will happen, we still have a astonishing goaltenders.

Sweden wont let in 4 goals against Slovakia

 

[pulverapa]

7-3 Sweden.

It is a possible. Sweden dont have here such a good team like usually. Slovaks are stronger this year than in the past. Definitely could beat them and scored 4 goals.

Sky is the limit.

For my national team, this game is a best chance to avoid Canada in the QF. Finnland and USA are too strong. With Tre Kronor, I believe we could make this one.

If you want a high shot count and many goals for Slovakia this aint it chief.

In juniors hockey, 4 goals mean nothing. But I like this position, when people are underestimating Slovakia. Then I know that they will be shocked later.

Isn't it you who underestimate Sweden, though?

This doesn’t make any sense.. U know that Sweden won against Finland, right? And it wasn’t unfair, they were alot better..

 

[PatrikBerglund]

Don't understand why teams play twice in 2 days, instead of just every other day. Would make for more intence games and lower the risk of injuries etc.

Sweden were alot better in the first period. Not so much in second and third. Sweden is still underdog in this tournament. But yeah, hoping for a 4-2 victory for Slovak is a stretch.

 

[slovakiasnextone]

The first period will be very important in this game, if the Slovaks let Sweden get away with a lead from that one, yesterday's game will likely catch up to them and the Swedes will likely win.

I just hope that if it's a close one we will get at least a point or two. while it's refreshing to see Slovakia keep the score close, it's all for nothing if we walk away pointless from those games.

 

[kabidjan18]

If there is one thing the Slovaks always do. They always bring a big tough lineup that can box well.

Slovakia 3-2.

 

[Pensionsraddare]

Maybe the slovaks have a slight advantage in this game considering playing a couple of hours earlier yesterday. But i do not think they will beat us and no way in hell by putting 4 goals behind this stacked defense.

 

[czechcanadian]

Slovaks showed a lot of heart and hard work yesterday. Despite that they couldn’t score on some really good opportunities. They lack the high end skill to finish or create even better chances out of good ones.
I think they’ll keep it tight but will ultimately lose 3-1 in the end.

Still cheering for my Slovak brothers though! Hoping to be proven wrong!

 

[kudla]

2-5

 

[Outofbodyinhungary]

Don’t know how this game will go, Sklenar most likely gets the start. Let’s get that power play going and clicking.

 

[Fred McCarthy]

Swedes will have their hands full ..3-2 Slovakia....might be a bit of wishful thinking , but I think Slovakia will be emboldened by their game against the Yanks

 

[stastny12]

SVK coach confirmed Sklenar in the net.

 

[McClelland]

Slovakia needed this game before the Usa game, they havent 2 great games in their bodies(BtB) or talent enough.
Sweden surfing on a strong game against Finland, 5-1 Sweden!
