GDT: Czech Republic vs. Switzerland, Feb 16, 1:00 PM Torino, 7:00 AM EST

[Kaizer]

No goalie in the world couldn't stop that shot.

 

[GuloGulo]

And there it is, garbage goal.
Poor swiss. They have been well as good/better than Czechs all game long. Even played good possession game most of the time. And then this happens.. grr!

Edit: A few minutes ago I was going to write "Jagr won't allow the team to lose".

 

[Piggymon]

Which is exactly what the US thought yesterday.

Fine for the US, but the Cze-Ger game went EXACTLY like this.

And there we are, Jagr scores.

Of course a lesser team COULD hold on, but the pattern is clear; the second period sucks for the B-teams. The other team wakes up, scores a goal or two and crushes their spirit.

 

[Kaizer]

Perfect save by Aebi on Hejduk

 

[TheRedressor]

Wow what a pass by Straka. Czech Republic really benefiting off of Straka and Jagr so far.

 

[DevilsFan38]

And Elias still out... I missed the beginning of the game, did anyone say why? Probably not.

Anyone? I was wondering the same thing.

Aebeischer has a sweeeet mask.

 

[shawn_kemp*]

Jagr is the only one really trying to score.

And Switzerland keeps coming into the Czech zone!

 

[Kaizer]

SH GOAL by Switzerland !!! Wow!!!

[GKJ]

Goal Of The Tournament!!!!!!!!!

 

[GuloGulo]

Goal Of The Tournament!!!!!!!!!

Amen to that! This are the kind of goals the B-nations so desperately need in order to compete!

2-1 Swiss.

 

[shawn_kemp*]

Short handed power play for the Czechs LOL

 

[mikkoz]

You cant touch Jagr????

 

[shawn_kemp*]

[shawn_kemp*]

[DimaNYR]

Elias had a "ribcage" injury, I heard yesterday on TV.... shouldn't be nothing serious

[shawn_kemp*]

Aebischer = God

 

[daikan]

Aebischer is playing great now!

 

[mikkoz]

I thought the Swiss guy just put his but on Jaromirs hips, and he had the puck.
