WJC: GDT - Czechs vs Norway, Dec. 27, 2023

[Auston Marlander]

What is Button going on about? He barely pushes him but it is in a dangerous position

Button is a moron. He makes me long for the days of Pierre.

Is it Kulik? Or is it Ku-le-ch? how do you pronunce Kulich?

 

[Czechboy]

Kulich with a goal the goalie wants back... Still, good passing and Plan A worked.

Is Sale not on the PP? The coaches hate him.

Sapo net front is great. Who is 16? Becher?

Keep it going!

 

[Czechboy]

It was Melovsky with the pass... poor Sale. Lost his first line spot. Lost his PP spot.

Is it Kulik? Or is it Ku-le-ch? how do you pronunce Kulich?

It's pronounced "goal-ich"

 

[Czechboy]

I'll look it up later but that is Kulich's 3rd point (I think) and gives him a lot of Czech records at this tourney.

 

[Chainshot]

Unlike yesterday, Kulich is deep enough toward the dot to make that work.

Pass-me-puck-ich

 

[Realgud]

The Mora line needs to produce for Norway

That was my obvservation yesterday.. the Slovaks were teeing up on us from 'down low' and Kulich was shooting from the rafters.lol Obviously, that is credit to the Slovaks for boxing him out beautifully.

 

[BigBadBoar]

Czechia players before the game: "We will avoid taking stupid penalties this time!"
Czechia players in the first period: "Penalty box, you're a very nice place..."

Good shooting mentality by Kulich, besides that, a very nervous, unconfident performance. Two offensive zone fouls, both with the stick. That's painful.

Yep, full marks for their PK keeping everything very wide/far in that game.

 

[Czechboy]

So Kulich is now the highest scoring point getter for the Czechs. The most assists and is now tied for most goals (Frolik).

Not bad for a mid first rounder.

 

[MOGlLNY]

Here he comes

 

[Czechboy]

"Penalty box, you're a very nice place..."

You have to warn me when you type these things.. coffee almost spit all over my laptop.lol Great line!

 

[Voodoozz]

The Czech PK blows...so passive and disorganized, they don't even attempt to cover the cross-ice pass. The coaching staff needs to put in some serious work to survive against any of the top teams.

 

[Goodman68]

This is how we want to see you all the time, Jiří.

I still have a very bad feeling about the interventions at the guardrail. Every other smells like a foul..

 

[Czechboy]

put in some serious work

Don't worry, we'll take at least 8 more penalties to get some PK work in the 2nd and 3rd.lol

 

[Czechboy]

Bares with a golden look and sailed it to the Ocean.

Of course, Norway scores right after that.lol Nice shot...

Sapousek with a bad giveaway.

Upon further review.. what a tip! I was about to shit on Hrabal but that tip was gorgeous.

Pure trash in these nets. Goaltending is so bad everywhere

 

[Chainshot]

Good forecheck to lead to the turnover. Norway sticking around.

Deflected.

 

[Czechboy]

So many good chances... need to bury one We are doing very well at getting into their zone.

 

[Chainshot]

A little dive-y there Jiri.
