I guess Jumpy owes an apology to the Norwegian PP and I do to Solberg in particular

Haha. Yes, absolutely. Didn't see that coming. Not sure that the plan was for Solberg to plant them in the corner from the bluline, but sure did work. Why complicate things.

Switzerland tomorrow is gonna be a tough game for Norway, even with the elite pp. Expect Arntzen in net, and hopefully some more ice time for Johnsen. Now that hopes are a bit higher, the expections should be lowered accordingly. 3-0 for Switzerland. (1-0)(1-0)(1-0). Think Norway will be heavily outpaced and outshot in this game.

Norway invent mutant oil pills to make people younger and refuses to share it with other nations. Knutsen and the gang all become 28.

Zuccarello - Knutsen - Thoresen
KA Olimbs - M Olimb - Brandsegg
Skröder - Bastiansen - Martinsen
Rosseli - Mads Hansen - Holtet
Dad Vikingstad, Ask

Lilleberg - Solberg
Tollefsen - Holös
Jakobsson - Trygg
Bonsaksen - Myrvold

Haukeland
Haugen
Arntzen

That team would fight for medals.

 

[Jumpy]

Well done! Impressive. Can spare Solberg and MBN though. They're sufficiently young This guy is actually widely recognized to be Norway's all time talent: Bjørn Skaare - Stats, Contract, Salary & More
Was spectacular, but didn't have the career he could've had on other circumstances. Unfortunately takes more than the oil pill to put him back on the roster.

So it looks like Norway have a big chance to be relegated or do i need new glasses? Would be crazy if Norway actually gets relegated.

Well, they need to win against the nominally weakest team in the group, which currently has a GD of -30. If you can't do that usually that does mean you are in a pretty bad shape. If they win, they are 6th in the group and exactly where most people expected them to be.
