GDT: Group A - May 8 - Germany (3) vs Russia (6)

[tsamolotoff]

Tkachev seems to be in disfavour of Znarok - 0 seconds in power play, he could at least have tried him, he's carried Ak Bars in playoffs PP this season

 

[Kshahdoo]

Plotnikov credited with the 3rd goal.

He shouldn't though, because he didn't touch the puck.

 

[LemmyUlanov55]

Oh boy, Kink went awkward into the boards..

 

[Zamboni Parade]

paying back the bad karma from the Sweden game

 

[LemmyUlanov55]

So is there a competition going on who's getting the most stupid penalty on Team Germany? Jeeez, Ehliz

 

[Kshahdoo]

The 3rd PP goal. 4-0.

Whenever I watch german hockey, which is not very often, I am amazed by the underwhelming skating abilities. Skating is by far the biggest difference between german players and the elite nations. Of course there are a few exceptions, but these are mainly guys that spent a few years in north America like Kahun, Tiffels and the NHLers of course. But many others are just lousy skaters by top standards.

 

[Zamboni Parade]

Skating and stupid pond hockey passing. Case in point, the Russian goal just now.

 

[Savi]

Kuch

 

[LemmyUlanov55]

Woof.. That's going to be ugly in the 3rd..

 

[Like Wall]

Russians in the arena waving soviet flag

It's the Banner of Victory, not Soviet flag.

Maybe you should get a KHL team?

Panarin trying to break the scoring record ? 8 points in 2.5 games

What happened to Mozyakin? How bad?

 

[kuzminov]

Well, I believe Mozyakin whenever he's healthy or not will "go home". It's worthy to put Kaprizov in the line with Tkachyov (they're definitely friends and played good in Eurotour) + add there Tarasenko, for example. It would make Russia ready for play-offs with 4 strong lines.

Plotnikov needs to stay as 13 forward, waiting for Orlov.

 

[ViD]

Hearing that Russian fans spilled beer over the German guy who injured Mozyakin...

Stay classy..

If it was up to me, I wouldn't make anymore NHL additions..

 

[Kshahdoo]

That's still a big question.

 

[kuzminov]

Tarasenko can help in PP and even-strength, Orlov a fortiori. But Kaprizov should be with the team now, he has "chemistry" with Tkachyov, who isn't as good as others now.

 

[DEMON01]

What happened to Mozyakin? How bad?

Our commentator has said he's probably dislocated a shoulder. It's not confirmed yet, so hopefully he didn't.

 

[Like Wall]

Finally GER scores

 

[kuzminov]

Zub just don't look good enough for WC

 

[ViD]

Wooow blatant slash not called on German player

Very dirty

 

[LemmyUlanov55]

..and another tipped PP goal by Gogulla..
