Nothing like waking up bright and early and watching Kazakhstan and Denmark!

Hoping it'll be an entertaining game, and we see a bit more bite from both teams. Sogaard needs to play a lot better, and I'd like to see more shots from the Kazak but you know maybe there's something to keeping a goalie super cold and reverse corsi-ing the chances to only the best opportunities. It's doubtful, but interesting.

Worked for Denmark the last 5 WJC

Would be sad to see Denmark leaving the top tier but honestly there isn't much talent in the pipeline right now so next year will be even tougher. I thought more of Jonas Rondbjerg, he made the WJC as an double underage in 2017 but hasn't really improved, especially from last year

Danes should be stronger next year if they stay, and I expect them to stay.

 

[Prntscrn]

Maybe try the midget instead of Sogaard Denmark? lol

 

[Bagge]

Søgaard improving his chances of not getting drafted this summer right from the start....

 

[Bagge]

No, they are not going to be stronger next year. Maybe in two years, if/when Marcus Almquist is ready and continues his development.

 

[Melkor]

Everyone expects Danes to stay and they leave. Judging by this whole tourney, sounds about right.

 

[SoundAndFury]

Seems like "by far the worst WJC team in a decade" is better than Denmark, at least.

 

[Scouter]

Yes they should be, they are returning a good number of players plus their top prospects Brinkman and Sogaard will be a year older and better.

By far

 

[Scouter]

Well after a terrible start by Denmark they have righted the ship, dominating in shots again, just some have to start going in, you think they will since Kazak goalie likely does not have another performance in him like last game.

 

[Killahpunk]

The Danes can't buy a goal and need it least 3 goals in the next 2 period plus OT if they want to avoid relegation.

 

[Urbanskog]

That's not how it works. There's no aggregate score, only wins count.

 

[Hunn]

Relegation round is best-of-3 in my understanding.

 

[Bagge]

Think he is just referring to the fact that Kazakstan is in front with two.

 

[Killahpunk]

Relegation round is best-of-3 in my understanding.

Also my understanding and the Danes are already down a game and are 13 mins from losing the second relegation game hence demoting them out of the pool.

 

[kabidjan18]

They need 3 because they're down by 2...

 

[Melkor]

Danes are done.

 

[fredligh]

Well yeah, Brinkman and Sogaard are returnees, but then again, Rondbjerg and Setkov leaves, that is a second and a six(?) rounder, to be competitive they need both gamebreaking talent and some ok depth, right now there isn't anyone really intresting breaking through apart from a few u19 players playing in the swedish system.

 

[kabidjan18]

What sucks is that, even though it wasn't much of a golden generation, Kazakhstan's golden generation was the 99 group. So they will get curb stomped far worse next year than they did this year.

It's already an accomplishment for them to stay among elites for another year. No shame in whatever happens next year, they already exceeded expectations.

 

[Urbanskog]

I get that. It just sounded like he meant that they'd need three goals plus one on overtime.

I never insinuated otherwise, but fans typically don't like to see funny scores, and you will see that next year.
