Haha Watching preview on TSN and Dutchie says Home Ice has been good for Canada..Ya Think you have it nearly every tourney.

LoL also said the US have not done well in bronze medal games.

Lauko with a good block on the PK and a decent hit in the o-zone. Other than that he wasn't on the ice too much. Wish he would get some PP time, but its understandable with guys like Zadina and Necas on the team.

 

[DKH]

Lauko two big hits

 

[Fossy21]

Sweden going for another silver? Probably. As long as the group stage win streak continues, whatever happens is hunky dory ...
Last two times it was held in Canada, they didn't even medal.

Yea he has looked decent. It sucks cause they just played there whole pp1 the whole time. Bukac had a brainfart on the goal.

Lauko using his speed to break up a 2 on 1.

 

[DKH]

Wow Lauko great play

Czech defense is abysmal.

Penalties are always much softer in international tournaments. Sucks that it might decide the game here.

 

[BruinsFan1990]

Lauko with the assist on the game winning goal!

 

[Saxon Eric]

Nice screen,nice shot

 

[DKH]

Lauko going to make it hard on Cassidy next Training Camp

Looks like s high end third liner who can check skate hit and shoot

 

[DKH]

Lauko lights up Quinn Hughes

 

[Fossy21]

Nice save! It hit the post, but there wasn't much to shoot at.

 

[Ratty]

Keyser with an outstanding pad stop on a Slovak break-in.

So an update on Bruins prospects after the first game. First up is the 2 guys from the Czech. Daniel Bukac and Jakub Lauko both played in the game. Bukac was on the third pairing and Lauko was on the third line. Bukac for his size was invisible for most of the game. He had one really bad moment and one good moment. For his bad moment he was caught puck watching during the PK that ended up in the goal. His good one was a good pinch in the offensive zone. Lauko was fairly invisible too but because the Czech spent way too much time in the box and because they leaned on the Necas line way too much. He had three good plays. He broke up a big 2 on 1 breakaway and he was screening the goalie on the game winning goal. Overall I would like to see Lauko move up and play with Zadina and a more physical game from Bukac.

Anyone else having problems with NHL Network?

Yes.

J. Hughes hasn't done anything but lose his footing every shift. Nothing spectacular so far.
