I smell a blowout : 7-0 Slovakia

Palffy (2), Marian Hossa (2), Zednik (1), Satan (1), Chara (1)

I was pretty accurate : actual score 8-1

Palffy (2), Zednik (1), Marian Hossa (1)

Are those the goalscorers? Did Zednik score a goal? I haven't seen it posted yet.

 

[fredez]

From iihf.com, yes

Slovakia goes on an unbelievable tear in the 3rd period. They score 4 goals in 5 minutes. Five goals for the period.

Slovakia tends to score alot of goals against inferior opposition. It says nothing of their actual form or team play.

From the few glimpses i saw the Austrian goalie was awful..

Who cares who it was against. With the goals, Slovakia has surpassed Russia for first place in the pool. That is mightily important.

And fredez, are you sure Zeddy got the goal? From my perspective, here are the goalscorers from the game:

1:0 Gaborik
2:0 Palffy
3:0 Visnovsky
4:0 Marian Hossa
1:4 Unterluggauer
5:1 Strbak
6:1 Handzus
7:1 Strbak
8:1 Palffy

if our team is`nt able to step up the game in the regulation,
austria will definitely play in group b for the next years.
that said, this team has no future.

what a crap.

No they won`t the goals against Austria won`t count in the qualifying round

The Qualification Round consists of two groups with six teams in each, playing a single round robin series. These teams carry forward the points gained in the Preliminary Round with the teams that they have played and advance with. Teams, which have played in the Preliminary Round, do not meet again in the Qualification Round.

Even though Germany aren't doing too well either I actually feel sorry for the Austria fans.

Tough to play that bad at home. I have a very good friend in Vienna and he was so looking forward to this.

Hey maybe you'll beat Germany in the playdowns and everything will be good for you!

Sweeet. I was waiting for him to get some points on the board. He's been very disappointing every single time I've seen him play for Slovakia. This has to be the tournament for him where he turns it around.

He is disappointing again. He was standing in front of the net and Strbak hit him with his shot.
