GDT: Group A - May 11 - Denmark vs France

[BalticWarrior]

I really dislike watching teams like France, running around like headless chickens and shooting at every opportuinity, zero creativity.

Lucky French point.

Bet they get the two, to really rub it in the Danes faces..

 

[FinPanda]

Could be a huge point(s) for France in the end.

 

[BalticWarrior]

With the open ice its pretty evident Danes are the more skilled team, but puck just stubbornly doesnt go in.

 

[Marky1999]

First penalty shootout this tournament.

 

[AstrophysicalJet]

Oh well, the right team got the W.

 

[FinPanda]

Oh the Danes won after Dahm started playing better as expected.

LOL they have the best moves in this game (and best goals)

Danes have the best players it's a no brainer and they have a great experimented defensive system - they also are the oldest team in Worlds

We miss 100% of our best players
Eller has 100x more nhl games than Team France as a whole !!

So be forgiving with French team - it's a good point for us

 

[Bagge]

Deserved win, but not surprised we struggled. A must win turned out to be harder than it looked on paper. Shocker

Good hard fought game by France.

 

[letsgocaps]

Nice game for the good guys in white. Bozon and Fleury had glorious opportunities to get the win in the third. 1 point.

 

[Rangers79]

That was a fun game to watch as someone with no stake in it. I know a lot of people hate to see when teams like these get destroyed by the big boys but it's great to see them play each other

 

[Bagge]

Am I the only one really disliking the Danish commentator? He is so obnoxious and one sided all the time. I much more enjoy watching our games on one of the swedish channels when available.

Bad week for Texier. 0-3 with 3 different teams.

You are aware, that Denmark are also missing a bunch of players?

I am not too familiar with french hockey. Roussell and Bellemare is missing, who else? Stephane da Costa?

 

[letsgocaps]

and Auvitu. But it doesn't matter, I like our squad.

Well, well, well. If you go by that logic France could have added their High end players, but so could Denmark: Oliver Bjorkstrand, Frans Nielsen, N. Ehlers, Frederik Andersen - all NHL-guys.

And then add Alex True, Patrick Russell (AHL), Philip Larsen (KHL), Nichlas Hardt (SHL), Patty Bjorki (Liiga), Mads Christensen (DEL) Emil Kristensen (Liiga).. Lots of Danish quality missing.

 

[Retroglyphs]

Can't believe how awful our goalies are.

Can't believe we don't have any good goalies other than Frederik Andersen, not even a liiga or SHL caliber goalie. Its awful. Our number one goalie is so awful he couldnt even make the roster in Alaska Aces.

Now imagine, they'd have gone for the dude from swedish 2nd tier league as nr.1, who's like 1,73m tall.

George Sørensen would have done better than Sebastian Dahm imo

 

[DangeRouss]

Do you really want to compare our rosters guys ? are you only serious ?

France has no Eller no Boedker any KHLer

You cannot consider the IMPACT of missing players on respective rosters as EQUAL
