U18: U18 day 4!

Beauty PKing from Sweden

0-0 and we start period 2 on the PP for over a minute.

That's a great outcome for the underdogs Czechs!

 

[Predatore]

Wow, that was one boring period

 

[theslatcher]

Czechia playing the exact type of game they need to be playing.

 

[jj cale]

Generally speaking, we're always good for one round robin upset. It's kind of our thing.lol

I mentioned earlier we are bipolar. So who knows, maybe we look totally different today. I cheer to the end and am thrilled I'm not at work and can watch in peace! More worried about my Oil later tonight!

I feel like the old vets on the kings team are slyly taking away your teams strengths from you, wearing you down.............................they better win tonight or they are toast, the oil need to have ther best game tonight and jump on them right away.

That's the problem... we are playing a very cautious D minded style (boring) to counter them.

Swedes are patient and can do this all day till they score. Once they do, another goal comes and then it's floodgates! I'm not sure we can grind them for 60 minutes.

I'm also noticing line 2 to 4 aren't making much noice. The PP was underwhelming but I haven't liked it all tourney and that is coaching.

They are 'Finn'ing us. And doing it well. We have more firepower for sure and we even go up 2-0 and still lose. So patient, counter punch and it's working beautiuflly. Doughty is also living 'rent free' in a lot of Oiler's heads right now.... masterful dickheadery from him.lol They are playing it perfect and we seem to be playing to their game plan.

Our goalie has been weak too. Not awful but some of those goals have been cringeworthy! Korpisalo has been the better goalie so far AINEC. FTR.. I love Stu.

 

[Czechboy]

I keep seeing decent point shots and zero net front presence.. also coaching.

I couldn't agree more with all of this. They better figure it out tonight.

 

[Czechboy]

That was a great Dvorak shot! Despite the stupid penalty, big fan of his... I think he's an NHLer one day and welcome him to the U20 at Xmas with open arms! Him, Hamara and Alscher is a nice start.

 

[Czechboy]

Latvia vs Norway tomorrow.. loser, most likely, goes to relegation! That'll be a great match!

Germany vs Slovakia could be real interesting too! Desperate German team trying to avoid 5th place!

Some potentially good games tomorrow. Still curious about US vs Finland.. US look unreal to me but Finn's are always good.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Czechia playing a strong 'road' game so far. Will they be rewarded?

 

[jj cale]

Did Button just say......."these coaches are sharp baby"

Oh dear.

If we don’t beat Germany by 5+, Satan should step down instantly

Swedens getting nothing done. Czechs just need to get the first one.

 

[Antiillafire]

Swedes bet money on Slovaks finishing 4th ?

 

[Czechboy]

I think you will but that 'should' be Germany's absolute best effort of the tourney!

 

[Czechboy]

Shots are 9-3.. in one way, kind of embarassing because this is the Czech plan. In another way, they are exectuing the boring plan really well.lol

 

[Czechboy]

I was already typing 1-0 Sweden.. what the hell was that.lol He whiffed! Now I get it.. you could replay that with the Keystone Cops theme playing in the background.lol

 

[theslatcher]

Jeebus.

 

[jj cale]

Some big saves there.

 

[Chainshot]

That was a crazy sequence for Hrabal and Stenberg.

 

[GettingYourMoms]

Jeebus.

You mean Hrabal right?

 

[jj cale]

The Czechs today are playing team defense the way I want to see Canada playing it, all guys supporting each other and on the guy with the puck all over the ice.

That's how you win games.

 

[Czechboy]

You mean Hrabal right?

In fariness, Hrabal caused that shitshow. Him and Dvorak had a 'moment' there.lol Almost funny to see our 2 tallest players sprawling around like that.haha Thank god the swede whiffed at the top of the slot.
