U18: Day 1 of the U18s GDT

[Czechboy]

Smoked Hrabal... Top shelf over the 2 metre shoulder.

 

[Czechboy]

C'mon Petr... I keep defending you!

Stopped dalibor!

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Sha-la with a brilliant goal in the shootout.

 

[Czechboy]

Sale scores a lot on backhand..

 

[Czechboy]

Smoke Hrabal again.. nice move

 

[Czechboy]

He's saying he touched it... I get the argument. He knocked it off his stick.

Curious the call.. fine both ways.

 

[vlady]

YEAHHH! A win over the Czechs is always nice. Good job boys!

 

[martygod12]

Slovaks deserved win ... we played like shit ... I am so pissed right now omg ... such a terrible game from us

Relegation awaits

Seriously not even watching the rest of our games, I will save myself some stress ... this is not worth it

See ya next year, when we hopefully will have a better team and better coach

 

[Czechboy]

Sweet celly from Urban.

If we had won I'd say Slovakia was robbed. We didnt win, so congrats Slovakia on a well earned victory.

 

[ijuka]

Finnish players' passing is all over the place but I sorta like the ideas that they have with this play style. More fun and ambitious than many other coaches might have.

Hrabal is a beast. What a game, he should be a first rounder. Sale was excellent from the second period onwards as well.

This could easily end up as the game of the preliminary round across the board

As a Slovak, I have to admit that some calls were soft imo but this one point For Czechia is thanks to Hrabal, he was fantastic.

 

[Goodman68]

A deserved loss. Some players don't even seem to be playing. Šalé scored a goal, converted a drive, but is this really a player from the first round of the draft? The casualness of his playing is something that really bothers me. And even otherwise he was practically invisible. Of course, there were even worse players. Indiscipline is a separate chapter, I really don't remember the selections ever playing differently under this coach. Maybe the one who won the silver medal. But I'm not surprised, I expected something similar.

 

[Antiillafire]

Slovaks need to spend some time looking at the powerplay film, because some of those were BRUTAL

As for quality of the game you completely destroyed us. The fact its was 2:2 was just Hrabal, Sale and luck.

I would take a defeat (still be pissed) but I would take it after a good game from us. But not like this. This was completelly embarassing performance from our side. Swedes and Canada will destroy us with double digit victory if we play like this.

I will say, I don't feel that reffing was the problem or that the calls were that bad. I just think Slovakia was better today. Hrabal was good but he did get beat pretty clean 3 times in 5 shootout attempts. I do agree he was potg for us! I like his game.

 

[jcbio11]

Damn those Slovak boys got some moves. A well deserved win over the Czechs.

Let's meet again in the finals.

Germans must be celebrating right now.. they're probably dying to play us!

I may skip the Canada and Sweden games.lol Two touchdowns coming in! And that's with a very good goalie!

 

[Wooren]

Czechs deserve the inevitable quaterfinal spanking by the US after this dogshit game, assuming they can beat at least Germany lol.

It wasn't that bad... Yeah Slovakia was better this game but Czechs in hockey are always a tournament team (I mean like Germany in soccer) and they'll get better as they play more games. You can never count them out.

 

[BB88]

You try to pass through 2 players in your own zone?

Is there a record for most touchdowns received in on tourney?

Canada should get 7, Sweden should get 7 and US should get 7 on us in the quarter.lol

Thats sadly the most realistic scenario

Nice primary assist for Väisänen.

Wish you are right, but today it was really bad, also it looked like half of the guys are bored and dont even want to play.

So slugish and unresponsive etc.
