Romain Loeffel will be registered today and will play as 7th defender. Kukan is done for the tournament.

Somehow I see a swiss win today, don't know why though.

Both teams are focused on QF already, so we'll probably see some line shuffeling etc.

well you beat us six times of the last eight matches.. it's kinda normal to think you'll beat us again

I believe tha we will see an interesting game.

Switzerland will reshufle their lines, still in search of their identity. Actually fine tuning the lines.
As said by my compatriot earlier.

Should be a soft game, technical and fast since both teams have nothing to win, and nothing to lose except confidence.

[Dizzay]

As an outsider who hasn't watched many games, who is "most likely" to win this game, say you were betting 500-1000 either way? Go!

Czechs.

 

[Dizzay]

By at least 2 goals? They need to win by 2 in order to actually "win"
I thought Czechs but seems like it's a meaningless game which can be dangerous!

Czechs will be playing in front of stacked arena again and definitely need to win for those fans and for good atmosphere in the team. I'm sure we won't see any slowdown at all.

Czechs are more likely to win, but the odds say that too. Value is on the Swiss if I had to bet on it.

 

[dryz]

I just hope Jagr is fine Oh and good thing that we have new line combinations....again

 

[Hemsky001]

are they trying to lose this game on purpose or what? maybe PK training huh?

 

[Swipes]

They got distracted by Klepis in his Jagr costume

 

[swissexpert]

I'm one of his doubters but Berra is playing a brillant game so far!

 

[donghabs98]

The Swiss are playing pretty well so far.

 

[torero]

as said here over, The Swiss are playing well.

Pleasure to see how their level has been rising along the games.

 

[torero]

Nice game ... am i the only one watching the game on one screen and having hf boards on the other ??

 

[Hemsky001]

Fiala has way too much space every damn time

 

[torero]

Romy doing well !

 

[dryz]

God damn, this is unwatchable.

 

[Hemsky001]

God damn, this is unwatchable.

Like every game with Swiss team. I'd say they are Greece (football) of hockey.

 

[torero]

Loeffel has to adjust a bit ... but overall he has not been that bad.

Helbling is hitting the roof.

A better collective game is appearing overall.

 

[Head]

Canada destroyed them 7:2 and we lose with them..
And its really unwatchable "holomajzna"

 

[zombie kopitar]

Nice game ... am i the only one watching the game on one screen and having hf boards on the other ??

nooope that's how I role too. Mac Cinema display for games and the laptop screen for HF.
Except I've been watching the Finland game more, but gonna switch for the 3rd to watch Hertlllll. How has he looked today??

 

[Hemsky001]

Nice game ... am i the only one watching the game on one screen and having hf boards on the other ??

No, but you're definitetely the only one calling this horrible game nice.
