GDT: Group A - May 14 - Slovakia (1) vs USA (6)

lol? He just made a great setup in the slot, who was that, that missed the one time looked like it had a good chance to be a quality chance.

Love the hate for Eichel (some warranted) but how he changes?

Did you see where he glided a full 150 feet to change while the Slovaks were rushing up the ice? He's made some great plays but he needs to play with more effort - he's a leader on this team and sets the tone, whether he realizes or not.

Johhny H with another one, damn hes a good player.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Gaudreau is trying his best to help the team lose. Every time his line is pinned in their zone. Not just that, he cheats on defense and when he gets the puck he just donates it to the opposition.

You sure about that?

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Oh is it? I just tuned in a little while ago. And the way he wrote it, it looked like Hayes was centering that line.

They've both been taking faceoffs, I think they are sharing C duties.

Eichel needs to move just a little bit quicker. He's putting himself in a vulnerable position.

Oh ok. I see.

 

[jj cale]

Ooooh...........Slovakia.

2-1

 

[jj cale]

Is that Stastnys grandkid or something?

 

[Xokkeu]

Hmmm maybe don't punch Gaudreau in the head and slash him

Stastny means like happy or joyful. Common surname

 

[jj cale]

Well you knew that was coming, U.S was all over them.

Johnny H with the sweet music again.

Ah........thanks.

 

[jj cale]

The Troubador makes it 4-1, game over.

 

[satbank]

That's a bad goal.

Boy, this team is embarrassing.

 

[jj cale]

Boy, this team is embarrassing.

It's a young team though right?

They look like teenagers out there, can't blame them for being outmatched today.

 

[Xokkeu]

Anybody know the quarterfinal locations

 

[kudla]

Nope. It's the 6th oldest team at the tourney. Consists mostly of average Czech league players.

No, it is not. Its just more of a B team.

Yeah a lot of average players from Czech Extraliga, + 2 good SHL and 2 KHL players.

 

[Xokkeu]

Gonna go with not punching Gaudreau in the face as a strategy.

 

[Howboutthempanthers]

Blowout. Sorry, Slovakia.

Thanks.

Well young or old Johnny Hockey is killing them.

Yea that seems like good advice.

 

[Xokkeu]

Blowout. Sorry, Slovakia.

Thankfully there is Italy in this group. Love the Slovak fans so don't want to see them relegated
