GDT: Switzerland - France

[SwissFan12]

They come up with too much confidence. Time to focus and get things back, we need the 1st place.

 

[swissdude]

interesting to see whether they are able to refocus and get back to their game. this first period was inacceptable, period.

 

[Jon Riley]

That's a good start of the period. Finally Meier doing something simple and effective

 

[canswetoxic]

vive la france, impressive.

 

[DangeRouss]

are u kiddin me
refs are totally joke

 

[jj cale]

French goalie really sharp on this P.P.

 

[Jon Riley]

This interference was a bit stretched

 

[SoundAndFury]

You can understand where Texier is coming from but that's not smart.

 

[jonas2244]

Puh, now keep going.

Now the PP should start to click.

 

[swissexpert]

Hischier is on a mission, playing with a lot of confidence,like a true leader!

 

[DangeRouss]

The Swiss, wounded in their pride, provoked the French, made mistakes and were not penalized
The French are wrong to answer and are penalized
So predictable, the Swiss will win everyone is happy but really not an honorable way to do it
2-2

edit : 3-2 lol

do you really want to discuss the slashing call? there was in fact one missing if you break your opponents stick it's hardly ever going unpunished...

The slashing is the only one unquestionable

If you're happy with the performance of your team when France could have led 4-0 after the first period ...

I am very disappointed with this Swiss team which is one of my favorites for the title

 

[jonas2244]

First period was bad but they reacted. Happens from time to time. France had nothing in the 2nd period.

All penalties seemed legit to me, they even missed two slashing calls on Meier and one on Hischier.

I guess the vast majority agrees with you that the 1st period was disappointing that's out of question

it's just not possible to play always your best hockey in a long tournament. the first period was bad, no doubt about, but the reaction was very strong, which is a very good sign, that the morale and character is top in the team. and the second period was almost a one way hockey, so far so good. let's look for the last period

 

[Jon Riley]

It seems that scherwey is hurt pretty bad , that sucks.

You could say you had chances and could have led 4-0, you can also say if you put 12 shots on goal and scored 2, you are kinda lucky as is. As a neutral fan, I'd agree 3-2 Swiss lead is more than fair.

 

[Speyer]

Corvi really misses his BFF's Nino and Hofmann this tournament.

 

[Speyer]

Jesus now Hischier maybe hurt. That would be devastating.

Edit: He seems back on the bench.

just think at the post and the missed penalty shot by Tex...
Switzerland is a much better team, no question about it but don't minimize what France did in the first considering its means it's noticable

i mean switzerland also leads in shots oon goal on the first period 12:10, so they also had some very good chances, but yeah, the first period was pretty lazy and bad

 

[jonas2244]

I'd rather have Kurashev playing with Hischier/Meier and Riat as 13th forward (Miranda jumping in for Scherwey)
