[Valdemar]

It is not a game about relegation any more, and as a Dane I'm very happy about that, but I certainly hope Denmark will win this one as it could be important for the ranking going into the Olympic Qualification.

 

[admire]

3-2 denmark. I hope at least.

 

[Justinov]

Slovenia 1-0.
We really dodged a bullet this year with this depleted team.
So lucky this game is not decisive for relegation as Slovenia takes the lead...

 

[admire]

But we are playing pretty well.

 

[Justinov]

But we are playing pretty well.

Except when the Kopitar line totally dominates us.

 

[admire]

I think this is staals last game...let's win it for him

 

[Justinov]

I think this is staals last game...let's win it for him

Looks tough as it is clearly the Slovenia team that provides the pressure.
Their shots are from more quality positions, whereas ours are from distance with clear vision for the goalie.

 

[admire]

Except when the Kopitar line totally dominates us.

except that yes..

 

[Hammer15]

I think this is staals last game...let's win it for him

Yeah, looks like it... As it did in 2011... Two years after, he became our point leader two years in a row.

Well if this link below speaks the truth we can most likely hope to overtake Slovenia... and end up in the exact same group at the qualifying. Actually if the below is true, then our group is pretty much locked by my eye count. Slovenia, Belarus and a qualifier from below. Encouraging.

[Justinov]

Yeah, but this year he has not produced in the WC.
So if we have more NHL players available next year he will have a hard time getting into the roster.

... With Belarus as the host?

Yeah, but this year he has not produced in the WC.

He didnt produce in 2010 and 2011 either...

But i'm agree... This should be his last game.

 

[CoachWithNoTeam]

What country do you have to be in for the IIHF's youtube streams to work?

 

[admire]

this is bad....and boring..

 

[Hammer15]

this is bad....and boring..

This could be a Metalliga-game... It's so bad.

 

[Justinov]

this is bad....and boring..

We are not even close to get any kind of offensive pressure.
Edit: Then we actually got the first really good attack, but Markus Lauridsen shoots directly on the goalie.

 

[admire]

Yeah, looks like it... As it did in 2011... Two years after, he became our point leader two years in a row.

I'm going on his statements...not his play. I love him amd would give him a spot again

 

[Hammer15]

Hm, former Herlev-goalie in the Slovenian net? I totally missed that, haha.

 

[Justinov]

Hm, former Herlev-goalie in the Slovenian net?

Yep....Herlev vs Rødovre

 

[AstrophysicalJet]

Hm, former Herlev-goalie in the Slovenian net? I totally missed that, haha.

Yes

 

[admire]

We are not even close to get any kind of offensive pressure.
Edit: Then we actually got the first really good attack, but Markus Lauridsen shoots directly on the goalie.

there was kinda a bit of pressure now

 

[Justinov]

Damn Oliver Bjørkstrand is just cursed this WC, he simply can't score.
and yes the pace is starting to build up a little.....(about time).

 

[admire]

Nice shift there! better.
