[slovakiasnextone]

Meaningless game for both teams in regards to this tournament, but I still hope our players show up.

 

[Systemfel]

Denmark going with Nielsen in net again.

 

[Bagge]

How old is Satan today? Feels like he have been playing as long as I can remember.

39, dude still got it though

 

[Hesher]

How old is Satan today? Feels like he have been playing as long as I can remember.

This might be his last game ever.

I'm hoping for a win and a good performance even if it is a meaningless game.

 

[Justinov]

It's not a totally meaningless game for Denmark. With a win Denmark will get in front of Norway and Slovakia which will be important for the seeding next time! (so probably 10'th instead of 14'th with a loss).

I meant meaningless in terms of QF. Of course in regards to IIHF rankings/seeding next year, it is important for both teams.

 

[Justinov]

Great play Bjørkstrand!

 

[Justinov]

Danish defense is still shaky like hell.

 

[Justinov]

1-0 Tatar.
Time for some raw meat jokes here.

 

[slovakiasnextone]

Those penalties...

 

[Justinov]

Our PP still suck big time.
We play better 5-5 than 5-4.

 

[Justinov]

1-1 Bødker
Lousy PP (to easy to read and very slow) and lucky bounce give Bødker a shot.

 

[slovakiasnextone]

Terrible game.

 

[Justinov]

Terrible game.

It's terrible because Slovakia always have a man in the penalty box and Denmark can't play PP.
When it 5-5 Slovakia makes some good attacks occasionally.....

So Slovakian PP, that could give Slovakia the 2-1 they need.

Slovak PP hasn't been that great either and stupid penalties have been a thing for them all tournamen long. And I'd expect a bigger effort from them since Denmark played a game yesterday and Slovka players should be well rested.

What are these refs smoking?

They miss two icings in the last 5 minutes. How can you even miss an icing, when the guy shoots the puck from below the middle and does not hit anything....hoooooww cannn you not seeee that?
