GDT: U18 Round Robin/QF's

[martygod12]

ok thats a way to kill a game .. thanks refs

how can this clowns even have a license?

 

[SanDogBrewin]

That's a bad call. No surprise with IIHF reffing.

 

[Czechboy]

US with a 4-0 win.. I said by 5 so I was close.

Congrats Norway! You relegated a team that beat us a few days ago!

 

[Chainshot]

Wow, that's a really bad call.

 

[jj cale]

pffft..................don't agree with that one.

IIHF reffing for ya.

 

[martygod12]

That was harly even foul not to mention for 5min lmao ... ridiculous IIHF

 

[hockeyprospects9]

Refs making it exciting, good job

 

[Czechboy]

Jecho does everything right but score. He's just like Sapo. Ice tilter... always looks good and then not much to finish. Curious if they can improve that with age because the rest of the toolbox is fabulous.
Mrtka was a Top 4 D for us for those wondering. He's an underager. Very good but today was not his day.

 

[Czechboy]

Doubt the minutes will reflect this lineup but bold move to toss Benak to line 2.

 

[flemo]

Well, it was kneeing officially. Fact is that in the last moment Tomik set himself exactly to the position needed to be kneed into balls.

 

[Czechboy]

TSN smashing the Czech PP.. don't blame them.

 

[tobu]

It was a late hit, but imo should have been a minor penalty only for Mrtka. There was no blind side or from behind, Tomik anticipated that.

Who is everyone calling for the Swe-Finn game? I'm picking Sweden.

I took Finland... Swedes are slightly bettter but Finn's are do for a nice run somewhere. Think it'll be close.

They will have to clear their head and dig in, haven't liked their defensive effort at all in this tournament.

I assume they are perfectly capable of doing so.

Oh, I almost forgot.........................congrats on doing in L.A, if you can fake it there, you can fake it anywhere!!

U18 is wildly unpredictable. Ebs and flows. I've always said playing at home is not an advantage. Unless the world's are in Prague of course, then it is totally an advantage.

 

[Czechboy]

Well, Period 1 was good for us but we can't finish on PP or finish any of our good chances. We also took 2 bad penalties... Slovakia starts with 4 minutes on PP and we are down a Top 4 defender. If I'm Slovak.. I'm happy right now!

 

[flemo]

Definitely not a late hit, it was right after Tomik has moved the puck.

 

[jj cale]

Czechs get the job done, that should fire them up.

 

[theslatcher]

I think Sweden wins against Finland. Finland's defense is a disaster.

Bad defense vs bad offense starring no Zetterberg for Sweden.

Sweden only wins if the D & Härenstam have big games.

 

[Czechboy]

Great kill... Czechs need to get some momentum again. Slovaki period so far

 

[flemo]

That was horrible giveaway, Fabus :-(

 

[Czechboy]

Milota playing very well btw. He's been our best player so far. We don't really have a second best player so far.

 

[Czechboy]

In fariness, Sikora has been good too. I think he's been our best forward in the tourney.. low bar as we only have 10 goals but he has some jam to his game here. WOuld be happy to replace his name with Benak, Kos or Jecho though.lol

 

[jj cale]

Good lord the Czechs need to start getting some shots, something..............anything.
