WJC: Switzerland - Latvia

[SoundAndFury]

And why Bichsel is not playing PP also nobody knows.

The only reasonable explanation I have is to cut down his minutes.

 

[Panthaz89]

Great D? The guy hacked his leg twice.

 

[Antiillafire]

Is Dennis Beyak mentally challenged? He makes so many commentating errors it’s insane

 

[Luolis]

This Berzins guy is so much better than Pasche, it's not even funny. Like night and day. So calm and sound positionally. Very clean technique as well. Switzerland not doing enough to really test him but they also get no rebounds at all. If the teams swap goalies, this game is already over.

I thought Pasche has been pretty good for the first two games :O

 

[LKI]

That Ločmelis drive reminded me Blacers goal vs Norway. hooooly! if he had scored that.

 

[Speyer]

Bummer that the game has to end in the shootout.

 

[Hinterland]

I thought Pasche has been pretty good for the first two games :O

You can't really say that he's the main guy to blame for any of the goals against but you also have to say that none of these goals against actually happen if we only have a half decent goalie. His non-existent rebound control has cost two goals and the two other shots were far from unstoppable either even though they were fired at him from high danger area.

 

[Hinterland]

Reichle can't even hit an empty net. Epic try

 

[Speyer]

Reichle doing Reichle things, deking out the goaltender and then puting it into the stratosphere...

Reichle doing Reichle things, deking out the goaltender and then puting it into the stratosphere...

At least he doesn't do it twice.

 

[GKJ]

Swiss wins the shootout.

 

[Hinterland]

Well, for all the shit I give Pasche...he was good in that shootout. Berzins was at well but Pasche made some key saves there and funny enough he never lost his net in that shootout...which normally happens all the time

 

[Pieck]

Fun shootout

 

[Speyer]

At least he doesn't do it twice.

He probably knew the only way he can burry it is to aim as low as possible so he went fivehole

 

[kudla]

Im calling a 3-2 Swiss win in OT

.

 

[Namejs]

Good game, that last play-off spot is almost certainly between Latvia and Slovakia now

 

[Hinterland]

Well, that was a lucky win. Deserving because they were the better team but Latvia played a decent game and had their chances to win. They were up a goal until late in the 3rd and if Pasche doesn't make those key saves in the shootout it would have been over as well.

 

[Kalv]

We let the win slip away. Oh well...

 

[LKI]

We let the win slip away. Oh well...

Why do I feel like, I have seen the same exact scenario somewhere... multiple times.

 

[Czechboy]

Swiss start 2 and 0.... did not see that coming. Good for them! Latvia has been very good too. The crossovers are a nightmare this year.. quarters should be great.
