[Eye of Ra]

Janos Hari is the best hungarian player. He will not be buried in a 4th line.

 

[Nordic*]

Was it Hungary that beat Sweden a few years back, despite being outshot with like 75-10?

 

[tade]

Gold contender right here.

 

[m4tt145]

Yeah I think Hari is at worst 2nd line center in this team.

 

[Ciccarelli]

Janos Hari is the best hungarian player.

Probably Sebok but it's close. A point for the team would be success.

Hungary-Sweden: 2-1

Hungary beat Sweden in an exhibition game back in 2007. The shots were 39-22 in favour of Sweden. If I remember correctly, this was basically Sweden's C-Team up against Hungary's best.

 

[Elvs]

Frank Banham retired some days ago. It was first then I became aware of him becoming a Hungarian national team player.

More like D-team. The team was a remix beetwen good (not the best) SHL players and SHL grinders.

In the rematch, Sweden won....0-3 i think.

Good luck guys!

It's good to see hockey becoming more popular in the country of our southern neighbors.

Hope Hungary stays up and plays in the elite division next year as well.

Hope Hungary stays up and plays in the elite division next year as well.

There's actually talk of only one team getting promoted if Germany or France finishes last in the group. Austria and Slovenia will probably peg their hopes on Hungary.

 

[kalle wirsch]

France can be relegated ,but germany not.

[kaiser matias]

France can be relegated ,but germany not.

That is incorrect. As per the IIHF site for the tournament, if both teams finish in relegation position, they will stay in the elite division and the next lowest team will be relegated, with only the one team doing so:

http://www.iihfworlds2016.com/en/information/#tournament-format

The overall bottom ranked two of the 16 teams of the final ranking (see below) will be relegated to the 2017 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship Division I Group A.

The 2017 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship will consist of 16 teams including the teams of the organizing member national associations, thus neither Germany nor France can be among the two relegated teams.

The teams promoted to the 2017 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship will be the top-two teams of the 2016 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship Division I Group A.

Note: If the co-hosts for the 2017 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship (Germany and France) end up in positions 7 and 8 in Group B during the 2016 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship, only one team will be relegated – the 8th-ranked team of Group A – and only the winner of the 2016 IIHF Ice Hockey World Championship Division I Group A will be promoted.

Let's be real...it's not going to happen. In all likelihood 2 teams will be relegated this year.

Totally agree. I don't see both France and Germany, or even one of them, finishing in the bottom two places.

 

[kabidjan18]

Totally agree. I don't see both France and Germany, or even one of them, finishing in the bottom two places.

They're in the same group. I could see France getting second last I the group but the last spot should be on lockdown.

 

[kabidjan18]

Beat Austria B yesterday 4-0, not a bad game on their part.

 

[ergi24]

Janos Hari have broken hand. 10. weeks out of the game.

[saintflannel]

Does Levente Szuper (sp?) not play any more?

 

[DonDa]

Does Levente Szuper (sp?) not play any more?

He has already retired. Probably Zoltán Hetényi (former ECHL player) or Miklós Rajna will be the starting goalie.

 

[Kiraly]

Hungary-Kazakhstan: 2-3

Goal Scorers:
Hungary: Gallo, Banham
Kazakhstan: Rymarev, Dawes, Bochenski

Hungary. Another Finno-Ugric team

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finno-Ugric_languages
They're re examining the language trees again according to that? Whaaaat

Definitely rooting.

 

[MMANumminen]

I have to admit I know nothing about Hungarian team. Do they have KHL players or Czech league players?
Who are the players to watch?

Well, Gallo is playing in SHL, Sebok in Finnish Liiga and Erdely in USHL (junior league in North America), also too bad that Janos Hari, who will play in SHL next season, picked an injury. All four of them young guns. Other than that, perhaps Sofron who played in DEL last season (then changed to EBEL). A lot of others players come from MOL league, and, obviously, from EBEL League.

Also five of the players are naturalised (Sarauer, Banham, Wehrs, Sagert, Dudas).

Some experienced players who are here already for quite a long time: Vas brothers, Kovacs, Hetenyi...

All in all, it will be a hard job for them to stay in Elite Division. Probably too hard, but you never know.
