Tomorrow is a huge day for this tournament.

Kazakhstan can relegate Hungary with a win tomorrow.

Here are the possible scenarios:

====================

Denmark wins over Latvia
Germany and Slovenia draw

Denmark - 7
Germany - 5
Slovenia - 5
Latvia - 4

In this case, Germany still has a mathematical chance to win due to their tie game with Denmark

====================

Latvia wins over Denmark
Germany and Slovenia draw

Latvia - 6
Denmark - 5
Germany - 5
Slovenia - 5

Wide open

================================

Denmark and Germany win

Denmark - 7
Germany - 6
Slovenia - 4
Latvia - 4

Slovenia and Latvia are eliminated from promotion

========================

Latvia and Germany win

Germany - 6
Latvia - 6
Denmark - 5
Slovenia - 4

Slovenia is eliminated

========================

Denmark and Slovenia win

Denmark - 7
Slovenia - 6
Germany - 4
Latvia - 4

Germany and Latvia are eliminated

========================

Latvia and Slovenia win

Latvia - 6
Slovenia - 6
Denmark - 5
Germany - 4

Germany is eliminated....Latvia vs. Slovenia for a final game. If LAT and SVN tied along with the expected Denmark win, it would be a three-way tie for first place, and promotion would depend on goal differential.

=========================

Denmark and Latvia draw
Germany wins over Slovenia

Denmark - 6
Germany - 6
Latvia - 5
Slovenia - 4

Slovenia is eliminated

=========================

Denmark and Latvia draw
Slovenia wins over Germany

Denmark - 6
Slovenia - 6
Latvia - 5
Germany - 4

Germany is eliminated

=========================

Denmark and Latvia draw
Germany and Slovenia draw

Denmark - 6
Latvia - 5
Germany - 5
Slovenia - 5

Wide open

========================

:lol: :handclap: How long did it take you to work all that out?? :D

It should be interesting to see who goes up, but I hope it is Germany, because they are probably the best hockey nation of the group, and I think we all want to see the best teams at the highest level.

About 10 minutes. Then I went to see the doctor....came home to realize I forgot a few scenarios...they're edited in now. :)


I would like to see Denmark earn promotion. The Danes seem to be a fast up-and-coming hockey nation. I remember when their senior mens team beat the USA and tied Canada last year....the world was shocked. Even though part of the expense was Canada's, it is always nice to see new nations begin to excel at the sport.

Yeah. It would be nice if we could get to the level that Soccer is at, where good teams don't even qualify for the World Cup. The best countries that won't be at the World Cup of Hockey will be Switzerland, Belarus and maybe Latvia. I can think of three current NHLers between those teams. (Salei, Gerber and another Swiss goalie who escapes me now.)

I'm hoping for Denmark too. Then they will have their U18, U20 and Senior teams play games in the top group, all in the same (calendar) year. Not bad. :)

I would prefer Germany, too...well, I am coming from Germany.

But this U-20 team of Germany has a lot of problems with penalties.Most of them are really superfluous´!!(especially against Latvia)

I am very surprised about Alexander Feistl(born in 1985) and Markus Kink(also born in 1985).... :handclap: :handclap:

Slovenia and Germany play later today, the winner will tie Latvia atop the standings but as of right now, Latvia would have the edge as they tied Germany (are ahead on goal differential) and have yet to play Slovenia.

It should be an interesting end to the tournament...

Latvia plays Slovenia
Denmark plays Hungary (easy win for the Danes)
Germany plays Kazakhstan..

Standings as of right now (Prior to GER/SLO game)

Latvia 2-0-2, 31 GF, 13 GA = 6 pts (Goal Diff +18)
Denmark 2-1-1, 13 GF, 14 GA = 5 pts (Goal Diff -1)
Germany 1-0-2, 15 GF, 7 GA = 4 pts (Goal Diff +6)
Slovenia 2-1-0, 11 GF, 7 GA = 4 pts (Goal Diff +4)
Kazakhstan 1-2-1, 14 GF, 13 GA = 3 pts (Goal Diff +1)
Hungary 0-4-0, 6 GF, 36 GA = 0 PTS (Goal Diff -30)

all Latvia has to do is beat Slovenia to clinch

Not to be a dink or anything, but you do know that the original post of this thread is being edited as things happen, don't you?

Yup, well aware. Just really excited for the Latvians. Very proud of Mustukovs and Karsums and all the rest of the boys.

Ouch. Denmark got killed. So they have to beat Hungary and hope Slovenia beats Latvia. It could happen, I guess. We'll see how Slovenia fares against Germany.

BTW, would Germany have been the favorite coming in?

Yes they are the favourites as they are the team who came down from Pool A.

I heard several opinions about the German team...they obviously have no team spirit.They aren`t bad individual players and most of them played still in the DEL against players like Van Impe,Rene Corbet,Greg Leeb,Denis Pederson....i don`t know why they have such problems....??

Well, the Germans have had team spirit for at least one period. They were up 2-0 after the 2nd against Slovenia, and they exploded with 5 goals in the 3rd. Must have been quite the speech from the German coach at the intermission.

The game is minutes from ending.


...And tack on a 6th third period goal with 2 seconds left. Germany needs all the goals they can get if they are to win this tournament.

What happens if Germany and Latvia win their last two games? What tie breaker do they use because head to head they tied.

I'd believe it is Goal Differential, and Latvia plays the same Slovenia squad that Germany crushed today
