GDT: WJC: Sweden-Latvia, Dec 26, 2023

[Czechboy]

Ouch... 5 and a game. FTR.. I wish the NHL called it like this too!

 

[Hierso]

Nothing to love about the Latvian game so far. Top 6 producing a single ES shot on goal.

Latvia droped the ball when they didn't get at least one goal on the fiver honestly. If i were the coach i would play it dangerously because in a fair fight the game was Swedens to lose from the time it started.

Where is this streaming?

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

when you dont hold the puck a lot, you should be extra discipline

 

[JetsFan815]

They really need to have more competitive games on Boxing Day considering that is the day where most people are off work and can actualy watch the games and there is no competition with NHL hockey. The first day of WJC should always be a double header consisting of 2 games featuring some combination of Canada-USA-Finland-Sweden-Russia playing against each other.

Lekkerimaki might need glasses. Rick Vaughn style.

Latvia #6 was wide open, bad shot choice

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

For someone who's known as a shooter

Lek is suprisingly physical

 

[Canucks LB]

Canucks fan here, just wondering how our prospects our doing.

Lekk, ep02, willander.

Just trying to get a neutral opinion!
Thanks guys

He goes for the tackle sometimes, but he still loses a lot of battles

 

[Seiza]

Unger Sörum is such a treat to watch, Carolina got themselves one heck of a player.

Canucks fan here too

Lekk likes to shoot, esepically on the PP, had four shot attempts in one PP but none hit the target thus far

EP2 is huge and he plays huge too, likes to pusnish ppl

Willander is quiet and solid

 

[Brunkmeister]

Läkkert!

 

[RobRayzor]

There you go. Stupid play leads to a goal against.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Oof 2 for that and they didn't take both ?

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

these Latvians need to cool down a bit

 

[GX]

0 IQ play by Fenenko.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

just how many minors can you take in one period

 

[Jukurit]

Latvia should probably stop taking penalties.

 

[Brunkmeister]

Incredible PP. Would be nice with some goals in even strength though.

 

[Billy Kvcmu]

Everytime i watch an IIHF tournament, i get reminded that just how much penalties the NHL refs don't call for entertainment/game management reasons

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Can opener... usually not use tondescribe a play in the hands/arms where the player falls..

I saw Norwegians today and they played an impressive game against the main favorite of the tournament USA. On the other hand, Latvians are now performing poorly. They better hope that Germans are worse, otherwise they´ll be relegated for sure.

Latvia beat Norway 6-2 in the pre-tournament game and then scored 2 more in 3 on 3
