Big game for both and hard to call. Slovaks in form, Swiss still a contender despite breaking down vs Sweden.

 

[stastny12]

Should be a close game. Let´s make it 4-0 lads!

 

[jonas2244]

Switzerland registered Kilian Mottet so I guess he's going to play today.

 

[tobu]

Some changes I noticed, Simon Nemec back in, replaced Bucko. Holesinsky switched lines with Skalicky.

I believe that Skalicky was 4th liner in the last game, as well.

I believe that Skalicky was 4th liner in the last game, as well.

I must have missed that, or he moved down throughout the game.

Overall, I have no criticism for the lines, but I do hope Slafkovsky will still get a shot in this tournament.

Need a reaction after Sweden
Especially from our big guys from the first line
Losing against Sweden was sad but a win today and we can move on

 

[Derbon99]

Looking at the lineup Fischer sent a message

 

[stv11]

Not a big fan of splitting Hischier and Meier I must say.

 

[mirec04]

very tough opponent, if we can skate with them and will be effective in PP we can bring something out of the game. the game against Sweden is very confusing, Swiss did not deserve to loose in such way.

Surprised to see Studenic in. Some other source reported him out for today.

 

[kudla]

This game is so unpredictable

Hokejportal reported that he was skating in practice yesterday and looking forward to today's game.

 

[stastny12]

I must have missed that, or he moved down throughout the game.

Overall, I have no criticism for the lines, but I do hope Slafkovsky will still get a shot in this tournament.

I´d give him a chance in the game against Czech Republic, at least. He was superb in prep-games against them. Just inaccurate shooting. It may be time to fix it.

 

[tobu]

Surprised to see Studenic in. Some other source reported him out for today.

Xrays showed no damage. He said in an interview he still feels a little pain, but nothing that should stop him from skating and wanted to play.

 

[Antiillafire]

I’d bring Slaf back in for game against Denmark and Czechs. But still that depends on how we play today. Ramsay loves Liska for some reason

 

[weklof]

That was an ugly hit, surely must be suspended for this. High speed - check , leaving feet -check, elbow - check, primary contact head - check

 

[tobu]

Bad foul by Pospisil and he is out.

 

[rimpirate]

Tough call on Slovakia. 2'+10' at the most to me.

 

[slovakiasnextone]

I don't think we can complain about anyone but Pospisil about this. Both Pospisil brothers are known for taking bad penalties.

 

[Antiillafire]

HOW DO YOU MISS THAT SUKEL

 

[Oberyn Martell]

lol net was wide open and he passed

 

[tobu]

Sukel misses open net and Swiss score on a phase where Slovaks were actually more dangerous on 3 min of pk.
