Any idea when/if the Kostitsyn brothers will be joining Belarus?

No idea, but I would really like to see Grabovski and Kostitsyn bros on the same line. I don't think any of these "weaker" hockey nations have ever put together a line of that caliber..

Alcohol is too expensive in Finland.

1-0 KAZ by the coolest name on IHWC ever.

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Belarus needs to wake up.

Tore Vikingstad says hi.

I just hope Belarus win this one, because they will likely win against France with Grabovski and Kostitsyn brothers and I don't want this relegation end in a goalaverage match-up.

 

[Juzmo]

2-0 Holy crap!

 

[Lapa]

Well played, Mezin.

 

[htpwn]

Mezin.

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

This is just horrible to watch if you betted on Belarus

Why isnt Heikkila pulling Mezin??

 

[htpwn]

2-1!

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

At least they scored one, 2-1

 

[htpwn]

Grabo!

EDIT: 3-2!

 

[NicolasH]

Thank you god. 3 - 2 Belarus.

 

[Juzmo]

Damn it Kazakstan.

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Wow what just happened?
