Pulju sucks its gonna take him at least 2-3 more years to make it permanently in the NHL.

But---but--but no one cares about the EHT!!!11!!

We beat Russia 1-0.

It is a chance for people to see players from NHL, so that's likely the main reason why it is soldout. Czech Hockey Games are always great given the fact that it is prime preparation right before the WHC. Czech fans are great.

EHT is mostly only development tournament for Europe players. It's good to see new players with a chance to play for national team and show yourself, but the results are really not important, or should not be.

Moscow, Russia
Lyubimov, Telegin, Andronov, Svetlakov, Plotnikov, Namestnikov all are 4th-liners on such a level. Of course they are energizers, classical hit-n-run hockey, so a lot of shots and pressure on opponents, but they can't score to save their lifes. And we saw it in the game, Russia was shooting, and Finland was getting scoring chances and beat us.

Yeah, it's going to be a different hockey with Panarin, Dadonov, Mozyakin, Tkachev and, I hope, Kaprizov, but still sad to see so many useless grinders on the team.

well, I think the main reason is that there was only tickets for both games of the day, not a single game tickets.

So William Karlsson is playing with Everberg and Klingberg. Pretty easy to see that those are the placeholder spots. All other lines make sense.

Hedman-Strålman taking the toughest matchups means Klingberg could have a lot of fun.

I have no idea what's the reason that Sulak is still on the roster. He makes one mistake after another. This is not level for him.

I mean we're not playing well but Läck has been incredibly average in both games. Far from being the given starter.

Also Kindl plays too much profesor hockey, does not realy have to make team imo. Kempny looks much better and confident compare to last year and he playes only 50 games in NHL...

Kempny is better than Kindl, that's obvious. Kindl played only about 30 games for Florida. Kempny played 50 games, but for Chicago. Difference.

8 goals against defense which was combined from Hedman, Stralman, Klingberg, Ekman-Larsson, Brodin and Rosen. :laugh:
