[Goldorak]

Huet will get the start, his last game for the NT and a chance for the Paris crowd to give him a proper send off. Same for captain Meunier.

 

[Loffer]

Why no Charles Bertrand in Team France, btw?

 

[Belizarius]

Why no Charles Bertrand in Team France, btw?

Not the greatest of love with coach Henderson.
Bertrand is a fast, fancy player, a little bit of an artist.
Henderson system is hard work, grinders and sacrifice.

 

[Belizarius]

Yep, end of an era. Hopefully a great last game for them and all they did for our NT

 

[Goldorak]

Why no Charles Bertrand in Team France, btw?

To add to what Beli said above, he has yet to score in 28 WC games and is -17. For whatever reason his Liiga success has not translated to the NT.

 

[Jesenice22*]

Solid first period, expecting the usual collapse in the 2nd...

 

[Reds4Life]

Not sure who to cheer for here. I really like the Slovenian NT, but France is the home team and it's the last game for them.

 

[Belizarius]

Pretty good 2nd period for us, time to finish well for Meunier and Huet

 

[Urbanskog]

So unfortunate that they were likely just one point shy of a playoff spot.

 

[Jesenice22*]

Disgraceful tournament for us, we don't deserve the elite division, period.

 

[kingsholygrail]

Damn France, you scary.

 

[DangeRouss]

What an emotion for French fans !

Huet, Meunier, Hat trick for Roussel and a big arena...

Way to go French Federation

 

[Belizarius]

Wow, it was my 7th worlds live. And this progress from a team fighting for the survival with warriors llike Huet and Meunier, to now, a team oh so close from quarter finals and 2 legends going... I'm emotional

 

[PanniniClaus]

you should be.

Great spirit, even without the QF birth.
