We looked really bad last game.. part of it was SLovakia looking really good but we were terrible, it didn't exactly encourage hope for this one. Czechs are up and down though...

SOmeone pressed play at CT Sport and Zaruba is talking!
Wish Hrabal had at least a lion somewhere on that Omaha mask.lol
German goalie has a .974 save percentage? Yikes! Hrabal is at .950 and is the second best starter statistically.

Weak goal from Zidlicky but I'll take it 1-0.. can't stress enough how badly we need a regulation win here. Slovakia has lined us up for relegation or a quarter with the US! I don't want either althogh I think we could take Norway in a relegation series... at least, I hope we could.

Sale with an outstanding short handed rush and probably a weaker goal as he heeled it. German goalie will want that back too!
Having said that. the rush was outstanding. I think people will 'statwatch' him but I hope they realize he's not a goal scorer but a playmaker and he really doesn't have many finishers around him. He's basically being asked to do everything on a weaker team.
2-0! My coffee is tasting better.

3-0 is great... I wouldn't say I like our play. Honestly, if some of other posters that aren't Czech or German tuned in.. they'd probably change the channel.lol

So, I guess bright side is no goal against 5-on-5, technically???
Well, I'll keep the game on in the background, but mostly focus on doing some chores, because it's more fun.

how can we again get 3penalties lol ... 3:0 great sure, but we are absolutely not mentaly mature. Swedes will trash us big time.

I cant watch the game today, so do we at least play decent? Or is the 3:0 pure luck?
Yes, it is for the most part. I tuned in just when you guys started that first power play, and for the longest time I thought "hey, their PP sucks as much as ours, and then of course our goalie I had high hopes for lets in a softie on the first shot when your team finally made it into the offensive zone after about a minute of what looked like some weird as team figure skating routine in their own zone.
But hey after being pretty sick for a few days, I am not gonna let this game or any game in this tournament bring me down. We may not play exciting, riveting hockey but a comedy of errors is still comedy so I will find some reasons to laugh and smile either way.
Besides, I am a big fan of Sale and at least he gets to show off his skills a bit.

I would call it about equal parts Sale excellence and German incompetence, but that's just me.

Every other team in this group is going to beat Germany by 7-8 goals and Slovakia is gonna squeak out a 2-1 overtime win against them. Calling it now

They will be do or die against you if they don't come back today. But... You guys have looked great and they may already be eliminated by then.
