Swiss 5 . 2 Cze
shots 29 . 32

The Swiss are too fast this time for the Czechs.
last will be an EN by Nino. Welcome back to your family Nino.

 

[Czechboy]

I consider the Swiss the favourite here.... Not sure why Bartosak only gets hard starts? No Chytil drives me bonkers.

Czechs 3 ... Swiss 2 in an upset. The Zohornas with 3 points each to shut me up!

Wait you guys scratched Chytil?!

 

[Lambo]

Czech win 4:2! Czechs a little bit better.

 

[Czechboy]

We prefer older, past their prime KHL guys who score 20 points a season.

I saw you posting similar thing in Sweden and Russia matches, this gives me hope actually

 

[Hemsky001]

4-2 Czechs

 

[Eye of Ra]

3-2 swiss

What a stupid hour to play this game.

Not that I wouldn't prefer him over some older, similarly unimpressive players but he's been crap so far.

The Swiss had tough matches against Sweden and Russia recently, while we played with Italy and Austria in a pedestrian pace. I would be surprised if it somehow doesn't work in our favour.

 

[Mr Tadakichi]

Haha time for swizzer land

 

[jonas2244]

Nino together with Haas and Andrighetto, by the way.

 

[Remix]

What a stupid hour to play this game.

Agree. Both this game and Finland - Germany should be later.

 

[Chimpradamus]

Ugh, 12:15? What a brutal time to play a hockey game. I really wanted to watch this game, but now I can't. That time is even more sad for Czech and Swiss hockey fans.

 

[GettingYourMoms]

I expect CZ win by at least 2 goals, because of too much depth for SUI team to handle, and multiple scoring threats on all lines, with couple of offensive Ds with Hronek being total beast.

Something for the main board: Hronek or Josi - who is better?

Joke??! Josi is a top 8 defenders since years....

 

[jonas2244]

Is this a serious question?

 

[TBF1972]

For the poster I quoted, it looks like.

I liked Scherwey there, i'd have liked more Nino taking Praplan's place in the first.

 

[jonas2244]

Moser played with Hischier/Fiala on Sunday and I guess Fischer will keep that this way. Praplan may even be the odd man out.

Filip Hronek has Mark Giordano written all over him, he will be top 5 best D in NHL in 3 years
