They will be sorely missed...

Yup, it's going to be difficult for Norway this year. France and Denmark can beat them. I wouldn't be too surprised if they ended up 13th or 14th this year.

 

[AwesomePanthers]

Sending our worst team in a long time.. all the best are missing. Just hope we can win a couple of games, no hope for QF this year.

I still think Norway will beat us.... I wont believe otherwise untill it happens

doesn't look too good on paper...if our goalies manage to do better than they have ever done in the past...sure, we then have a shot at doing ok. Friendly matches recently doesn't really imply anything else than a poor performance in this WC. Will still be watching though! Best of luck to our guys!

Well you might get Zuccarello over (unless he has definitely said no) - Rangers looks like losing.
That will improve the offense a lot.

Pretty sure he won't be arriving...since he is without a contract for next season he shouldn't take the trip in case he injures himself....

Norway are still favorites on most betting sites.

 

[Ilovemymum]

Zuccarello is not coming. Confirmed today in Norwegian media.

Every Norwegian that are interested in hockey where very concerned before this tournament because Tollefsen, Holtet and Thoresen was out for this tournament. But is our roster really that bad? I mean, we have taken 6 points now and have won two games. I know we have some tough games left but still. By the way, I hope our Hockey Association can sign a new contract with coach Roy Johansen, how about a life-time contract?
