4th line will be Skalický - Šťastný - Lušňák and Hudáček will be the starter. Daňo could be game-time decision.

 

[PapaQ]

Doesn't seem to matter what lines they are in, we generally miss certain type of players. Centers, playmakers. Even if Reway played really well, that wouldn't be enough.
This seem to be the match where they either totally fall apart or get their act together and attempt for QFs.

 

[Mestaruus]

It sucks that all the Slovakian stars declined to play in WHC when Slovakia most needed it. I mean Hossa, Gaborik, Chara and the list goes on... This is the year to prove what Slovakia is about after the decision of World Cup not even having team Slovakia.

 

[GaboriklessWild]

Dano will play

Actually, the list ends right there Also, I wouldn't call Gaborik and Chara stars, not anymore.

Slovakia isn't what it used to be sadly, and we have to admit that it would be totally uncompetitive even with the best line up possible. I think last time around Slovakia was already struggling to compete in the World Cup, and there was a much stronger player generation around

 

[tade]

Belarus should be well rested, they will play Slovaks hard. They were able to skate with Canada for 1 period so this could be an interesting game.

 

[Jakk123]

Okay then, Jaros scratched and Cehlarik as the 13th forward What the actual ****?

 

[flemo]

Well, I'd like to see something from Reway today.

 

[SlovanHC]

Well, I'd like to see something from Reway today.

This x1000

 

[SlovanHC]

Its happened again, its happened again, oh slovakia its happened again

 

[yoteshot]

At the office, but got money on Slovakia -1,5 this morning. What is up with all those penalties in the 1st?

 

[hmmsk]

Not watching broadcast either, just stats. Did SVK really outplay BLR the way the stats suggest?

Belarus is weak, but we are not much better. I am thankful for the lead, though.

 

[Jakk123]

My eyes hurt, two terrible teams against each other.

 

[Elvs]

Slovakia really knows how to stink

 

[Dima_BLR]

My eyes hurt, two terrible teams against each other.

same feelings. ooops, blr just scored another one...

 

[Jakk123]

Our hockey is bad, we should feel bad.

 

[Nooodles]

congrats slovaks, thank you very much
lol

 

[yoteshot]

Thanks for nothing Slovakia...

Wow, what a collapse. Thought they could pull off the win with a 2 goal lead easily against a very weak Belarus squad...

 

[tade]

I have no words.

 

[Jakk123]

I wonder whether or not would this team be able to win 1.A division, when we can't even hold 2 goal lead vs weak Belarus.

 

[Finnished]

In Finland we have rich NHL players and companies giving hockey gears to kids who can't afford it.. I guess that would be the only chance for Slovakia to get out of this hole. They surely have the talent since they produced so many great players but something must be done so they can find the talent and that the talent can afford to play..

 

[QnebO]

Slovakia has some dumb defence men.. both 2 last goals were on very very bad plays by D.
