[JureEe]

we need something to prove, lets repeat Vojens.!

 

[ikke]

Go Slovenia GO

 

[kunabai]

we need something to prove, lets repeat Vojens.!

no way, it was a fluke

 

[TheSlovenian]

no way, it was a fluke

Like the Kings Stanley Cup, right?

 

[Dima_BLR]

belarus could even lead after period 1... despite pretty crappy performance.

 

[kunabai]

Like the Kings Stanley Cup, right?

more like sweden upset in 2002

 

[BalticWarrior]

2:1 Belarus now,Kitarov.

 

[Dima_BLR]

how did they manage to score twice playing like some div-1-caliber team? that's a fluke!

 

[ozo]

Indeed, luck is favoring Belinsky as well. Just pray and hold on

 

[Belizarius]

Slovenia tied it 3 times but it's now 4-3 Belarus...

 

[ozo]

How on earth Belarus won this game, I don't know.

 

[TheSlovenian]

My reaction after todays pathetic defeat:

 

[Justinov]

Tough luck on Slovenia. Outshot Belarus, but still end up losing.
Belarus certainly have a good history with 4-3 wins......

 

[kunabai]

this game had even the same scenario
0-1
2-1
2-2
3-2
3-3
4-3

though this change of scenery from sweden to slovenia shows where belarusian hockey is

 

[Acallabeth]

Good job ancestor land.

 

[likid]

We are still too naive...

At least we will be the first team in B - group that will play on Olympics

 

[TheSlovenian]

Hell yeah, suck on that Belarus .

Sorry, I had to do something to make myself feel better.

 

[Zippy316]

Did Gavrus play for Belarus? How did Hrabrenka look too?

 

[Justinov]

Yeah well you have the chance to upset Sweden again. If you can continue having this luck, the Swedes might get really nervous playing at home and already in some trouble having lost to the Swiss

 

[templar]

Slovenija is really unlucky...they fight,but...

 

[Dima_BLR]

Did Gavrus play for Belarus? How did Hrabrenka look too?

graborenko looked pathetic. no way he will ever play in the nhl. this guy belongs in the bol/vhl at maximum.

 

[vsk92]

Apparently organizers of IIHF World Champs banned fans from waving old Belarus flag (banned by country's dictator Alexander Lukashenko) in Stocholm.
