GDT: Group A - May 15 - Russia (5) vs Latvia (0)

[BlitzSnipe]

Wow, Panarin is just a monster right now. Beautiful technique and vision of the ice.

 

[tictactoe]

Boom.. Set play.

 

[BlitzSnipe]

5-0, Belov. The Shipachev line scores.

 

[Zaar]

This russian team is so spectacular to watch. If they are able to "get serious" eventually they are my top favourite for this tournament.

Tomorrow's game vs USA will show what team Russia is about

If I understand correctly, team Russia's path to gold will be as follows

USA
Finland
Sweden
Canada

 

[BlitzSnipe]

And Nichushkin really wants to score, I like that. Good stuff.

 

[Zaar]

At least the academy award goes to Latvia

 

[Jesenice22*]

Oh god, I want Canada v Russia this year, and also looking forward to USA vs Russia.

Count me in.

 

[Jesenice22*]

Get over it, dude, it's 5:0.

 

[RobRayzor]

You mean 4:0

 

[tade]

I love Latvians attitude in this game, kudos to them. Gonna be huge game tomorrow against Germany. But I want to see Germany (home team) with Draisaitl v Canada in QF, sorry Latvia.

 

[BlitzSnipe]

Pfft, as if that goal matters that much.

 

[Zaar]

Sometimes Panarin skates around the Latvian defenders like they were training pylons

 

[kp61c]

sorokin is solid. i prefer him to vasi, actually

 

[BlitzSnipe]

Best player from Team Russia - Panarin.

 

[Jesenice22*]

You mean 4:0

Yea whatever.

They will be definitely a hard opponent for Germany and to be honest I'm somewhat worried. I hope, we will eventually make into the QFs though.

I love how he just left the puck and managed to trick the defenseman. Guy's a real talent, great to have him in Team Russia. Also a really cool dude.

 

[Bloomfield*]

Meh russia dont have the swedish defense.

 

[BlitzSnipe]

I think Germany is the stronger team, you guys should take it in theory.

 

[BlitzSnipe]

Oh yeah, Russian hymn to end the game. Excellent.

 

[Fantomas]

This is the post-Ovechkin Russian NT. And it's good.

 

[BlitzSnipe]

This is the post-Ovechkin Russian NT. And it's good.

I know! As soon as no one expects Ovechkin to do all the work for them, everyone starts to contribute.

 

[Bigod]

You mean 4:0
