[Daeni10]

Finally a German penalty and Koys is hurt. Should be 5 minutes for kneeing.

it clearly was a penalty but 5 minutes, i dont know..

 

[Kamzik]

Godla demolished! Germany losing their cool.

 

[JayKing]

Dirty

what an idiot

 

[Daeni10]

I thought the Bender penalty was dumb, then Pfohl took this one.

Stupid penalty, if Slovakia score then Germany cost themselves any chance of getting a point from this game. They get one with a couple minutes to go then they have a chance to equalize. Won't be doing that if they take dumb penalties.

 

[JayKing]

Beautiful puck movement

 

[Kamzik]

Slovaks move the puck very well on the powerplay.

getting a point doesn't change anything for Germany. Win in OT gives them a shot at 3rd though with a with tomorrow

 

[Kamzik]

The time Germany probably deserved a penalty shot they don't get one.))

OT win wouldnt matter anyway, had to win in regular time.

The hell happened

 

[ebis]

Reway ordering the guys around

 

[Jakk123]

Yeaah hattrick

 

[JayKing]

Hat trick hero

 

[Kamzik]

Reway hatrick!

 

[Daeni10]

The right guy got the goal

 

[Jakk123]

GG, though game as expected, individual mistakes got us the lead which we fortunately held. Not sure if to wish you guys luck in the relegation round, as it will likely be against the Czechs But if the Czechs manage to knock off the Russians, you have got my support

This win also assures Slovakia will be back next year for a 21st straight World Junior Championship.

Also we finish no worse than 6th for the third time in the last 7 years (4th in 09 and 6th in 2012) and never worse than 8th place. Much better than the men's team's results in the same period.

The future might be a little bit brighter thanks to youngsters like Trts, Jurco, Panik, Dano, Reway, etc.

 

[Kamzik]

Lantosi was named Slovakia's best player. Reway could not be selected since he was BP in the first game versus Canada.

you could finish 8th still no?

Canada/USA/Sweden/Slovakia all lose in QF. Slovakia 8th because they finished worst in round robin than the other 3 losers.

Since we know that they placed 3 in the group ... Do we know if Slovak qualifier game will be in Toronto or Montreal?

I think there was a thread before the tournament started complianing that 3rd in group B stayed in Toronto, while 2 had to go to Montreal.

If that was right then Slovakia as 3 would face 2 in other pool in Montreal.

and according to this. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2015_World_Junior_Ice_Hockey_Championships. Sweden and Canada play their QF in Toronto. That would make Slovakia in Montreal since they won't face either of those teams in QF.
