GDT: Switzerland Vs Slovakia | 1:00PM | Group B - TD Place

[Antiillafire]

he’s really slow

I mean he just turned 17 and is playing with 2 ice cloggers in kukumberg and Dej. He’s an average skater for his age.

Swiss PP so far

Looks like the Spanish national football team with that tiki taka nonsense.

 

[Antiillafire]

Shame we don’t have a 3C or 4C who can skate, Dej and miro jr are just to slow and cause problems for their own wingers taking so long to get up the ice. At least Dej is useful on the PK.

I hate to say it but Button is right. They need a dirty goal now.

 

[vlady]

Swiss dominating right now

Just keep on pushing the pace. The Slovak's are a skilled team but you can see they can't match the Swiss speed. At least not with the entire lineup. They have some good skaters as well but not everyone is on the same level in that regard. Just keep on pushing the pace and fire pucks at Urban. He's gonna crack eventually. Just don't take any penalties. That would be the end of it.

 

[Speyer]

Neuenschwander is a bit of an Anchor on Rebers Wing. He just looks awkward out there which is totally normal considering his age. They need to put Reber and Steiner togehter though as their chance from a couple of minutes ago showed.

Did Mudryk just said that today is a sunny day here in Ottawa???....lol. It's cloudy here in Ottawa...lol.

He is getting ready for his next career as a a weather man.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Are Slovakia's lines listed incorrectly? It looks like Dvorsky plays Center, the line sheet looks like they just list the Forwards sequentially by jersey number.

 

[Speyer]

Couple of decent shots from Neuenschwander on the PP now. But he still seems a bit overwhelmed with the speed of the game. We are just not in a position to rely on him on the PP right now. I d rather roll out the big guns.

Edit: Huge kill incoming now

 

[Hinterland]

Slovakian defensemen battling and blocking shots as if their lives depend on it. Meanwhile, Timo Bünzli just casually watched Jencko score. Embarrassing.

That Schneller penalty could be the one too much. Wouldn't surprise me if it's 2-0 soon.

 

[PanniniClaus]

Schneller.. wow

 

[Antiillafire]

Dvorsky has been absolutely awful

 

[Hinterland]

Lol Schneller. Took a horrible lazy ass penalty but that play was a beauty.

 

[Speyer]

Well thats the dirty goal for you. Great stretch pass by Reber too.

 

[vlady]

Dvorsky has been absolutely awful

Not really. Strbak on the other hand...

 

[Hinterland]

Holy shit. That was a decent shift for Switzerland. Sadly no finish but if they keep this up I can't see them losing this one.

 

[Statsy]

Can’t believe that Slovakia has been this inept offensively. I was really expecting this team to be looking dangerous. They haven’t. At all.

 

[BoHorvat 53]

Slovakia with a dominant shift to close the period

 

[McMozesmadness]

Fun game. Both goalies playing well

The Swiss have carried play for the most part, but the Slovaks have had a few great shifts with extended zone time

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Nice saves by Kirsch

 

[Hinterland]

Can’t believe that Slovakia has been this inept offensively. I was really expecting this team to be looking dangerous. They haven’t. At all.

They're skilled but many of them are too slow. Maybe some tired legs as well after playing yesterday.

 

[Speyer]

Fortunately both Swiss Goalies have shown up so far. I was really worried for Goaltending before the tournament but they have risen to the occasion so far.

 

[Antiillafire]

Luka looks really good. Somehow Strbak will stay as PP1 qb…
