GDT: Group B • Dec. 30 • Switzerland vs. Denmark

  • Xenforo Cloud has upgraded us to version 2.3.6. Please report any issues you experience.
A good turn by the danish d man got the breakout going and then some magic combined with some luck. Come on Danes
 
PP DEnmark :)

They said, big line is out there for DEnmark, and shortly after said "slowly to get up is..."

and I was hoping and praying they said Eller. Sorry Eller, but you need Ehlers and Bjorkstrand healthy
 
I kind of want Swiss to win the group but at the same time I want Denmark to get into the medal rounds.

I'd probably want it like: Sweden, Swiss, Russia, Denmark. So many an overtime win for Switzerland works? Hopefully Czechs somehow beat Russia aswell but we'll see how it goes as a Canadian.
 
Swiss guys, your humility is apreciated.. But you guys will take this with ease :)

One great line just isn't enough for anything! Especially when only this line seems to shoot the damn puck. We have no D, so you guys will have an easy time getting shots off. While you guys have a good D, except against Russia, where it seemed they under-performed.

And just how lucky the danes are..

we were unlucky against Russia...that's just how it goes

I don't think you can get it like that. Let's assume Swiss beat the Swedes to get 6 points, Russia have 5 and beat the Swiss so they have the tiebreaker over them. So the Swiss need as many or more points against Denmark than Russia gets against the Czechs, but that means the Czechs get as many or more points against the Russians than Denmark gets against the Swiss so at worst would be tied with Denmark and they have the tiebreaker over Denmark.

In the off chance both Czechs and Denmark get 3 points to get Russia involved in the tiebreaker the Czech would take that tiebreaker with 5 points in h2h games to Russia and Denmark 2, Russia then 4th on h2h win over Denmark.

In the off chance that you manage a 4 way tie with the Swiss then Swiss would be last on h2h earning only 3 points in h2h games and the others have 5, then proceeds as above.

tl;dr, if Denmark make QF, highest Swiss can be is 3rd, if you need explanation, read above

Oh wow, that's kind of odd especially since Swiss would have more points than Russia.

But they would only stay with more points than Russia if they earn the same number of points here than Russia gets against the Czechs which means the Danes can't outpoint the Czechs. You can have 1, but you can't have both :)
 
Dare I say the Danes have outplayed the Swis this period?

If they keep this level of play up I wouldn't be shocked to see them get another.
