[Belizarius]

One of the biggest game of France history. A win is very important to keep the medias near the arena and have fan support.

 

[tade]

Let's go France! Looking at the line-up, it seems that everyone important is on the team, right? Top 6 looks very good for your standards. Very curious to see what kind of atmosphere there will be in today's game.

 

[Heia Norge]

Looking forward to this game, hopefully it will be a good one.
(and a a victory for the Norwegian team )

 

[Shrimper]

Might choose to watch this one later. Sell out crowd?

 

[TheBigThree]

Going to watch this, expecting fans to be explosive.

 

[doug88]

Going to watch this, expecting fans to be explosive.

Don't expect too much though.

 

[BalticWarrior]

Two pretty evenly matched teams, this is gonna be a close one for sure

 

[J1mLahey]

Cristobal Huet, now there's a throwback name

 

[Lays]

Didn't know Huet was still playing puck

 

[S E P H]

How is the crowd, from my stream it's hard see, but I still see lot of empty seats?

 

[TheFinnishTrap]

Put my money on Norway, might have been a mistake.

 

[jonas2244]

Didn't know Huet was still playing puck

He'll retire after the WC.

 

[letsgocaps]

France is awful, crowd is lame..

 

[Marky1999]

2-1 after the 2nd. If France was less aggressive, it would be a much closer game. First point by a Kunlun Red Star player at the WHC. Allez les Bleus!

 

[Urbanskog]

He'll retire after the WC.

Despite having a contract for the next season?

 

[Death]

Despite having a contract for the next season?

He'll retire from Team France, time to leave his spot for younger goalkeepers, so will Meunier and maybe some others. End of the road for their generation.

 

[Kshahdoo]

Former KHL star vs present KHL star 2-2. But Thoresen had an assist as well, so Norway won.

 

[Marky1999]

The KHL players have been great in this WHC

 

[PanniniClaus]

Good battle. I was pulling for France but it was not meant to be.
