GDT: Slovakia vs Canada

[jj cale]

Offensively Canada was fine that period, Huska had to make a lot of great saves, defensively they were a real train wreck however.

It's all about performing a lot better in that regard this period, finish this game off a lot better on that end.

Good to see Slovakia finally getting back on track, lot of good things buzzing in Slovak hockey atm.

This tournament might still be too early for them, but the direction is correct. Few years from here i see Slovakia fighting for gold in WC.

 

[Hemsky001]

Alright, Huska is not on point anymore.

 

[vlady]

after all that hard work, Huska lets in a stinker

 

[jj cale]

Ah...................a little more separation, that feels good.

 

[elMatador]

Softie by Huska. Slovakia is done.

 

[Chainshot]

Huska just a moment of distraction when that puck hit his defenseman's skates... and Sillinger beats him.

 

[jj cale]

Mercer is really growing on me, multi tool guy and real smart.

 

[FinPanda]

Shame, Huska played so well and then to let in that kind of goal.. This game has been excellent to watch though.

 

[Chainshot]

Ah, Mike Johnson's commentary on an NHL team that has nothing to actually do with that NHL team. Good stuff, Mike.

 

[tobu]

Tatar has been a liability on this team so far unfortunately.

 

[jj cale]

Very good penalty kill there though the wind is out of Slovakias sails at this point.

Geekie with the dagger.

Congrats on your first WHC goal with TC kid.

 

[FinPanda]

Slovakia in 5-10 years will be scary

 

[Antiillafire]

Tatar been a disappointment so far. It’s a shame we got so many rejections from Olympic guys, even just 3-4 guys would be a big difference

 

[elMatador]

3 midgets Tatar, Kristof and Lantosi getting manhandled all game long.

 

[Antiillafire]

Grman and Janosik are completely useless

 

[tobu]

Is Janosik the worst D on the Slovak team?

 

[peto10]

Is Janosik the worst D on the Slovak team?

No, Rosandic is.

 

[elMatador]

Nice tune up game for team Canada.

 

[Antiillafire]

I’m still waiting for Pospisil to take a terrible 5 minute major penalty

 

[jj cale]

Well, some warts in that game but it came together enough for a 5-1 win against a decent Slovak team that tested us and played damn hard. Onto the next one.

And Finland-U.S coming up, hopefully it will be a tense close game.

Canada has according to eliteprospects a average height of 189.41 cm / 6'2 (!)

Little worried for Slovak's.. German loss looms larger now. Good luck against Swiss.

Not worried at all about Canada.. 3 games and 9 points. Keep it up!

Denmark is the game. Who themselves looked really really bad against Switzerland. And now we have Fehervary. Just need that 1 win

Is Denmark any different from Oyympics? An NHLers?
