GDT: Czech Republic vs. Finland, Feb. 18, 9.00 PM Torino, 3.00 PM EST

[Borlag]

I have a hard time believing that we could manage a shutout against the Czech. Their individual skill level is simply so much higher than ours and even though Finland is a hardworking Team (with a capital letter-t intentionally) who when needed defends with the whole team, I don't think we can avoid having a PP goal or two scored against us.

 

[Hensta]

Im ready for action! Beers are ready! All my friends are ready! And we have to wait 4hours!!! damn! Well we just have to watch ski-jumping first. GO FIN GO!

 

[RangerBoy]

GO FINLAND

 

[Bring Back Smyth]

GO CZECH GO

Should be an ecstatic game, heres hoping that Hemsky gets a hat-trick

 

[Force]

Go finnland... if germany wants to say in we have to kick the czechs out...

 

[Matti_A]

The Czech's will win this one. It's the first game against a more offensive minded team for them in this tournament, and it's in games against our kind of opponents that they usually come up big.
And the Czech's have a better goalie.

Hope to see an exciting game tonite.

zidlicky scored on a pp for the czechs and then jokinen for the finns

 

[David Singleton]

Vokoun was hung out to dry. The defenseman just floated backward and never challenged either the shooter or blocked the passing lane to force a shot and disallow the 2-1.

The way Vokoun was coming out, he expected a shot to be forced.

Nice play by Jagr.

 

[Panopticon]

What a weak call on Peltonen. And the one on Koivu as well, but at least that one made some sense...

 

[MartinFr]

the call on Peltonen was weak but Koivu deserved a 2min rest.

 

[SENSational]

Damn Jagr is playing good.

 

[Telecaster]

Some great skating by OJ there.

 

[5minsforfighting]

Jagr looks damn good.
