Im going to reverse jinx and say 7:0 Czechs take it

 

[Pandaman11]

It will end 4-2 for the Czechs.

Games between these two teams always end 4-2.

Its either 2:4 or 1:3

 

[Swipes]

It will be a close game. 3-2 or 4-2 to us probably. I hope we don't underestimate the Latvians.

 

[tade]

Expecting close, tough game between 2 solid teams. Cesi do toho!

We are the only team that cannot be underestimated.

EDIT: I wrote "can" instead of "cannot". I mean, you can underestimate us and still be victorious, because our players will always **** up.

1:0 cze. Here we go again... Bunch of losers.

You're sounding a lot like Slovaks,

 

[dryz]

Well, this is unusual

 

[Like Wall]

This game was over before it even had begun. 7:0

 

[BalticWarrior]

Lol Beresņevs is such clown. Putting Masaļskis in the net after the phenomenal game Merzļikins had? Wtf.

And who that bright idea to hire Beresņevs. Our hockey kitchen is one big fail.

Until Lipmans is in charge, this statement will remain true, unfortunatley.

 

[GX]

Swedes were dominating way more last night, yet our D is falling apart every other second tonight. If we can't squeeze a goal on three PPs (or even gain offensive pressure), I doubt we can do anything today.

We had way more PP chances than we deserved and we just squandered them. We dont deserve to win.

 

[KurtSloan]

What a save by Masalskis on Kempny..!

 

[Coffe]

Save of the tournament award can be given to Masalskis already. He got it with the blade of his skate.

 

[DrunkElkCZ]

Well THIS is Masalskis I remember

 

[Like Wall]

Belarus just scored.

 

[GX]

Belarus just scored.

Good for the Canadians... I guess.

 

[BalticWarrior]

Kenins....

 

[KurtSloan]

lol Masalskis, smart guy..

 

[Swipes]

Our power-play.....has still not improved.....how many years does it take to even see some degree of improvement?

 

[BalticWarrior]

Goddamn i hate our coach...
