[Babula]

Go Czechs

 

[FinPanda]

Go Finland! 4-2 Finland.

 

[ikke]

Good luck Czechia

 

[MMANumminen]

I haven't seen a single Check game yet. How they've look?

I feel sorry for badmouthing our players. They've overachieved and are on top 4. Anything can happen now

Finland wins 4-2

Jokinen
Karalahti slapshot
Palola
Rinne

Lehterä 0+5

 

[agent082]

Czech wins 4-3, total of 5 PP goals, Jagr 1+2.

 

[Kharkov]

How Salak has played?

Czech win 5-2.

 

[WinTheRightGames]

It's going to be a tight game but I think Finland wins it. Rinne being better than Salak will play a big role in that.

 

[Gsus]

This story aint over yet. Finns win after a tight one.

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Im concerned about this game tbh. As we all know this team isnt great, huge part of their success comes from being in the right mindset, like going up against odds without any pressure. After beating Canada majority of people expect them to win again against fairly even team and i think they think so too. But the Czechs always play really well once they get past QF's and i just have this feeling lack of finishing will hurt us once again.

Rinne will have to have a big game once again. My guess would be OT/SO loss.

Well, this absolutely ain't gonna happen...

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Well, this absolutely ain't gonna happen...

They arent going into SO's anymore? Or are you referring to Czech lack of success in SO's?

 

[joey16]

The second option is correct

 

[Babula]

^^^ Czech republic devils

 

[mattihp]

Quite often a hard fought game. Hopefully Finland can take this. Both defenses have been shaky at best so there can be a bit of goals here..

 

[Jakk123]

Lets go Czechs!

 

[Bluesgirl]

Go Finland Go

 

[liquid1988]

[DenisSamson3]

[mattihp]

[Eye of Ra]

[QnebO]

[aphyro]
