If the US wins then crap gets wild. If not, then the Czechs might be the first seed

 

[Nolanitis]

Looks like the Czechs are coached by tortarella, blocking everything they could

 

[Mighty Makar]

Great game by the Czech’s. Congrats!

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

They're celebrating like they just medalled. I think the coach was crying too. Great show, boys!

Russians were smiling after that smh

SWE beat CZE who beat RUS who beat USA who beat AUT.

So that means AUT is going to beat SWE and make everyone 1-1 right?

It means Austria is in big, big trouble.

Great win by the Czech. Yep Group B is the group of death alright.

Yesterday's hockey was a little depressing. Today's was great.

Thank you Hockey Gods.

Horrible coaching by Larionov

LOL. Sad but true.

 

[kudla]

Slovakia and Czech. Rep today allowed only 2 goals together against Russia and Canada (not counting that empty netter). Crazy defensive play

 

[AvatarAang]

Can someone please make a GIF of that Czech player with no blade swimming to the bench

 

[TheBeastCoast]

I get the feeling watching that game that Larionov is not that great at his job.

A moment of silence for Marco Rossi's back

 

[VictorLustig]

The US could never beat the Russians by playing the way the Czechs did.

 

[Atas2000]

Larionov will have to answer some unpleasant qurestions. I've seen bad coaching. This one was right up there. No adjustments throughout the game. Schemes that were obviously dumb, not working, not applicable agaist the branded czech hockey, but never abandoned. And he is no Bragin who could light a volcano under the players' arses in the intermissions. Just a sad, declining attitude on the team over the course of the game and no motivational effort behind the bench.

 

[deca guard]

ray 'that was a great escape ' . gord ' he almost literally tunneled his way off ice ' , lmao

 

[Pieck]

Russia really just spent 3 hours shooting the puck at Czech shin pads from the blue line

But clearly we're the ones bringing International hockey down

 

[Startseva]

CZ showed nothing spectacular but also i didnt like our team in some moments. They looked not organized. But if you lose to CZ and win against USA, I guess it's okay. Just need to defend ur ass when u attack and not joining in attack by full team. Look at those 2 goals so.

Another back injury for the Minnesota Wild. They'll never be a contender.

I am not exaggerating, you are absolutely correct, I will go one further, that was one of the worst coached games I have ever seen in my life

The Mukhamadullin special.

 

[Czechboy]

Great win for the Czech's. They look so happy

I'm literally doing a happy dance right now.lol

Probably could've used the kid scoring at above a 1.5 PPG rate in the CHL this season, huh?

May be a one and done for him at the tournament unless he changes his tune.
