Player Discussion The World Championship Thread (Tuch, Krebs, JJ, Quinn, Levi) - Friday May 12, 2023 - Sunday May 28, 2023; Tampere, Finland and Riga, Latvia co-hosting

[Ace]

Girgensons must be really feeling like he missed out. Understandable he wouldn’t play without a contract though.

I’m sure he’d have loved to have been a part of it. But I’m also sure he feels a lot of pride in the Latvian program growing so much while he has been a big face of it.

 

[Weltschmerz]

JJ there it is

 

[Chainshot]

John Jason Peterka.

 

[Ace]

Peterka rips one by not Levi for the early lead

but it’s being challenged

 

[Dingo44]

JJ gets the first goal of the game! Great shot by Peterka.

 

[Chainshot]

Gus was at the previous Latvia game in Riga.

 

[Ace]

That’s not offside. He’s got control. Shut up

Clear possession and he’s still on the line.

Great goal and drew a penalty!

sets tournament scoring record for a German player (according to the commentator)

bad challenge

 

[Weltschmerz]

Yes

 

[Chainshot]

Krebs making an amazing feed. Tied.

 

[Dingo44]

Krebs with a nice assist to Blais to tie it!

 

[crossthesticks26]

just a real blast to watch JJ, Krebs and Quinn out there.

Levi's door opening skills though...

 

[Chainshot]

Krebs on the bench after the goal he set up going primal on Blais - that kid is going to be so much fun in the playoffs.

 

[Chainshot]

Krebs smells blood in the water.

 

[Ace]

Peterka broke a German record from 1930! That was the only other time a German has scored double digits in this tournament. JJ sitting on 12

 

[Dingo44]

Sabres legend Philip Gogulla makes an appearance.

 

[Weltschmerz]

Sabres legend Gogulla haha

 

[Dingo44]

Per Sammy Blais "Krebsy" is an amazing player and an amazing person.

[CaliSabresfan24]

Dont tell me Allan Walsh is his agent...

 

[Dingo44]

I've never read a Fish Book but he scores to give Germany the 2-1 lead.

Canada about to go on the power play.

 

[CaliSabresfan24]

Should've played Levi...

 

[Chainshot]

Dont tell me Allan Walsh is his agent...

Yeah, Octagon Hockey (Walsh's agency) reps him.
