Mario Rottaris, hero of Fribourg-Gottéron, long time player for the Swiss national team in the 90-ies.

On Swiss television the official commentator speaks German and the expert may talk Swiss German.

 

[saintflannel]

The Swiss are just playing with them.

Mario Rottaris, former player of Fribourg. While the main commentator is speaking german, Rottaris speaks swiss german.

ah thanks. i remember rottaris from the early 90s or so. he's really hard to understand for me.

but at least the main guy is very good to understand and he knows hockey. that's so much better than any german hockey coverage.

 

[jonas2244]

The main guy also played hockey, I think one season with Davos when they were in the NLB.

Switzerland is dominating, nice to see that.

Swiss PP

 

[Finnpin]

You seriouse?

Single game ticket: yes.

 

[saintflannel]

Why does the commentator keep on calling them Kazakhs? They're all Russian. lol

maybe his eye keeps catching Talgat Zhailauov - the only ethnic Kazakh on their roster))

 

[ElTailR]

Nice 1st period for our team. Loved the PP goal what a beauty!

On Swiss romande television we have Gary Sheehan as second commentator the coach of La Chaux-de-Fonds and Didier Massy (the referee) for analysis at breaks

Maybe

 

[saintflannel]

2-1

Nice shot, Savchenko. Berra was way too deep.

 

[Justinov]

Suddenly we have a match again. See if the kazaks can take the Swiss on while confounded what just happened.

 

[Justinov]

Then the kazak get's a penalty..and another..how ideotic is that?! They don't want to win?

 

[Valois]

Is Shemelin a D man?

If so Habs should sign him and roll an Emelin - Shemelin pairing next year.

 

[jonas2244]

Streit with a rocket, 3-1 .

 

[Belenos]

Booooom!

 

[saintflannel]

Two for Streit.

3-1 Swiss.

 

[Justinov]

Strait. Horrible loss of puck...nice goal. Day and night within a few seconds.

 

[saintflannel]

Is Shemelin a D man?

If so Habs should sign him and roll an Emelin - Shemelin pairing next year.

 

[Justinov]

5 against 5 looks like Swiss powerplay.

 

[saintflannel]

Nasty collision there.

 

[Belenos]

Don't like Brunner in the last games. Everything seems predictible. Wick looks better i think.
