I don't think Norway sees it as such, frankly...

Either way I don't see Norwegians just rolling over and giving up.

 

[Namejs]

I see that odds on Norway are dropping, is there any roster-related reason for that?

I don't see this as a 70/30 game, more like 60/40 or even closer to 50/50.

2+ points will keep us alive.

Will be tough. Our defence haven't worked so far, hard to win games when you conceed 4-5 goals every game.
Offensive it has been decent so far.

We normally score some goals in every game, so if we can tighten up our defence and keep their scoring down it can be a close game.
Intersting game also for Canada's QF chanches here.

But no doubt, Latvia favourites.

This is a really good game if you're not in favour of one of the teams.

This Brekke guy 2 assists in 24 Norway league games this season. Well, at least he's doing what he's supposed to be doing I guess - injuring other players.

Reffs on point as always.

 

[RobRayzor]

Injury to the head and only 2min penalty, oof.

 

[jonas2244]

Not understandable. This should have been a major.

Norwegian commentators expected a possible 2+10 or a 5 or something on Norway after this late hit/boarding, was talking about this end result as very lucky. Ole Eskild Dahlstrøm, side commentator, seemed relatively baffled.

Now they meant this new minor was because the refs felt they had been to lenient.

 

[Havre]

So a penalty for Latvia becomes a 2 min penalty for Norway.

Today is probably the most boring day of the tournament. This game has the most at stake. If Latvia drops even a point against Norway it keeps Canada's thin hopes alive.

 

[LKI]

Good ol' Jerabek.

 

[SoundAndFury]

So a penalty for Latvia becomes a 2 min penalty for Norway.

Look at is this way: Norway made it out with 2+2 instead of 5 mins flat.

I agree that shouldn't have been only a 2 min for Norway of course.

Kind of got the feeling the next 2 min Norway got was to make up for the strange decision in that Brekke situation.

I'm starting to like this new guy!

 

[LKI]

What is this horrible passing, omg. We can barely do 2 decent passes in a row.

 

[Name Nameless]

That's what Norway gets for not scoring on a good PP.

 

[Havre]

That was brilliant 6 against 5

 

[SoundAndFury]

OH MY GOD

Norwegian blows a tire, the guy closest to him goes to the box

 

[Name Nameless]

And Norwegian commentators thinks the minor was wrong, but says thanks.

 

[Name Nameless]

Does expect a make-up minor here.

Same here
