[Namejs]

Wellwe wwon't make quarters that's for sure.

Why is that?

 

[King EK65]

Wellwe wwon't make quarters that's for sure.

One game doesn't decide everything. Just like winning Finland doesn't mean we'll win everyone.

 

[Maverick41]

That 2017 on the german helmets completely ruins their uniforms.. looks awful..

It looks horrible on both the helmets and the sleeves. And to think they will probably be using those uniforms until 2017.

 

[BalticWarrior]

We just need to get 3 points from Kazakhstan, Belarus.

If Germany loses to Finland and we defeat Kazakhstan, we've got more points than Germany.

This game was very important, but we've got 5 more games left. The tournament has just started.

Well just have to see if Finland won't choke against Germany.

 

[Sanderson]

That 2017 on the german helmets completely ruins their uniforms.. looks awful..

It does. I have no idea why they have it there, and on the helmet as well. Yes, they host the WCH in 2017 together with France, but is there really any need to advertise it right now?

Even if they really need to have it, why not make sure that it blends in somewhat?

 

[Domenica]

Well, what else could you expect from a game vs. Kazakhstan..

Just ... something. More scoring opportunities. Full disclosure: I missed the first period and the second was Germany's worst.

That 2017 on the german helmets completely ruins their uniforms.. looks awful..

Yeah, very clumsy.

Germany wins! Special mention goes to goalie Philipp Grubauer who played his second international match today.

 

[BalticWarrior]

Why is that?

ignore my immediate knee jerk reaction. I'm just really pissed we lost

 

[slovakiasnextone]

The French are wearing the 2017 things too, looks atrocious.

 

[ThunderBuddy]

Back2back game. What do you expect. Also this game was anything but ugly. Way to many defensive mistakes. And SOG in second period? 2! Vasiljevs line was ugly. Meh.

That can't be an excuse. This was also a back-to-back game for Germans. We were outplayed and that's it. Also Gudy looked pretty shaky. Oh, well! Hopes crushed, time to drink more beer.

 

[RobertR]

Yeah, I'am sad.. If someone told me we would had 3 points after first two games, I would've said, ok, thats fine.. But after a win against Finns..

 

[GX]

Just to be fair, Finnish team was only a bit better than Germans. This year Finland is yet another team that will battle for QFs, and could easily stay out of them.

 

[Justinov]

If it's any consolation, the French are probably even more depressed over losing to Italy after beating Canada.

 

[Namejs]

Well just have to see if Finland won't choke against Germany.

Well, if Finland loses vs. Germany, they have 0 points. We've got 3.

 

[Domenica]

Well just have to see if Finland won't choke against Germany.

I wouldn't mind that.
