GDT: WC - Czechs vs GB

[Czechboy]

Czechs are starting Dostal which is amazing since it's what I wanted but didn't think would happen. Saving Vejmelka for Sweden tomorrow I assume.

Zero complaints about lineup. I am a huge Smejkal and Blumel fan and it's nice to see their hard working styles combined with our skill guys. Hope it works out. I do think Simon should be in Top 6 as he plays better for us than he does in NHL. D is setup as well as you can for a weak group.

I am a Blümel fan too. And yes, Simon is usually playing much better for the NT than for his club.

It'd be a shame not to get the touchdown... I say 7-0 Great Britain.

 

[Czechboy]

For the Czech fans watching on Czech tv.. Zaruba can't even talk. He needs to go LTIR. I can't even hear him.lol

A bit unrealistic without Liam Kirk! 6 goals max. 5 from Josh Tetlow and 1 from Josh Batch.

 

[Czechboy]

GBR with 2 good chances... breakaway and in close shot. Our D is as advertised.lol

 

[Gold Standard]

GB getting some chances. Love it.

 

[Hemsky001]

Awful first two shifts by Jiricek. Seems nervous.

is there not a third Josh that could get the 7th goal? Where did Kirk end up this year, I know he was awesome last year.

We've looked rough in general. Should've kept Chlapik.lol

 

[Czechboy]

David Vyborny commercial! Love that guy.. played for my Oilers and was a rock star for the NT.

 

[Czechboy]

High danger chances:

GB 3
CZ 1

Coach must realy want to see how good Dostal is.

 

[GettingYourMoms]

We should propably stay home, like our Russian brothers.

 

[Czechboy]

Curious how many great chances Flek and Stransky will get and no finish. Like them both but they never finihs.lol

 

[Czechboy]

Looks pretty empty to me.lol

Serious knee injury in November that needed surgery, only just started skating a few weeks ago.

 

[FinPanda]

Gb looks great so far, unlucky this game isn't 1-0 for them

 

[Czechboy]

Even period... I'd say Britain had the better chances. No Czech stood out to me.

 

[Antiillafire]

Gb looks great so far, unlucky this game isn't 1-0 for them

Agreed. Czechs on the other hand, having lots of shots blocked. Could use some more point shots to open up the lanes.

Thanks.. googled it.. he was doing well in AHL too 5 points in 8 games. Knee injuries suck!

 

[BigBadBoar]

GB's playing very good so far, the Czechs have proven once again that hockey without skating doesn't work.

Waller

But he's too good to lump in with Batch & Tetlow

 

[NyQuil]

I’m wondering if @Eye of Ra thinks Great Britain is better than Sweden.
