WC: General Talk '14 — Czech Republic

[Kesid]

Let the show begin...

Mojzis is brutal to watch...

 

[Kesid]

Hopefully Vitasek and Jank will sit tomorrow, we can give them a chance next year. We need to see who can step up (Jordan/Krejcik, Kolar, Zamorsky) and join our top 4 D (Kindl, Polak, Sevc and Nemec).

Lines today (source: onlajny)

Rolinek - Hudler - Růžička
Vondrka - Klepiš - Petružálek
Gulaš - Kousal - Radil
Buchtele - Zaťovič - KaÅ¡par

Jordán, Kolář
Vitásek, Zámorský
Krejčík, Jank
Mojžíš, L. Kovář

J. Kovář (Salák)

but I think they have goalies wrong, Salak should start this one.

 

[Kesid]

Looks like Klepis made the team with assist, he played better today, but still.

 

[hans26]

It looks like Sekáč will be there

I know someone mentioned it on idnes.cz forum.

Yeah, also journalist František Suchan tweeted about it
@suchosfany 6 h

Jiří Sekáč trénuje v Letňanech, potvrdilo se, že Vladimír Růžička s ním stále počítá.

IMHO good addition.

I'm pretty disappointed that none of Buchtele, Radil, Kousal, Nosek made the team.. I think they'd be pretty good in 4th line, at least two of them should be in the final roster instead of Ruzicka and Kaspar IMO. Well we'll see how that works out... but I'm happy that Sekac is there and Mojzis is not

 

[hans26]

Looks like they didn't want to risk with many inexperienced players. I'm happy for Sekáč and Zaťovič. Especially Zaťovič really deserved the spot. Too bad Nosek or Radil didn't make it. But overall I'm ok with that roster.

 

[Kesid]

Defense is okay. I'm happy with Jordan and Zamorsky. Not sure about Vitasek, though, but I guess he is not gonna play much anyway.

Sekac is a solid addition. Not happy with Klepis, Ruzicka is useless if he is not in top 6, Zatovic played well, but I would rather have young and energy players instead (looking at your Radil/Nosek, Kousal, Buchtele).

 

[Kesid]

With Jagr injury and Cervenka sickness two more cuts on Thursday.

Jagr injured???? Any sources.

Cervenka???? Not Cervenka!!!

 

[dryz]

Jagr injured???? Any sources.

He has a thigh bruise and didn't finish last two games. Nothing serious though.

 

[frostyflo]

Sobi and Polak in?! I just hopped on your wagon, Team CR!

Yeah I'm excited about Sobotka as well. I was pretty disappointed when he couldn't go to the Olympics and now he'll finally make a debut.

There are some minor health problems, but everybody should be ready for the first game.

Prvni 3 útoky na tréninku: jagr, sobotka, klepis - cervenka, rolinek, hertl - hudler, kovar, sekac.

Well, really don't know what to say. I'm definitely not happy about it
KlepiÅ¡ first line? Růža probably wants some connection from 2010, but still...Also Červenka with Rolinek on the same line looks horrible for me.
