Well, that was a real good game to watch.
If only the Czechs had some decent defenders they could have won this game.

What the hell was that defenseman doing throwing it down the boards when nobody was ready?? He had so much time and space

Best game yet in this tournament. Whoever missed it, you missed a dandy.

Well Czechs have no one to blame for them selves, they could have won that game if they actually put lines together to win, balance doesn't win tournaments, it is who gets hot.
I will say you can tell by Zadina reaction after the game and in other games that he is frustrated a lot. Just seems he hasn't received a single pass all tournament.
From what I saw I thought he was good. His main job was to enable and defer to better players.
The Czech lack good offensive dmen. Everytime they send it back to the blueline, it's an adventure (and likely a turnover).

Pitty, Czechs didn't score, such a coward Russian play had to be punished. Bragin wouldn't have had any chance to coach any Soviet team, because Soviet teams were all about attack, and this team is 100% shit in attack, despite we have some really nice forwards.

6 goals (1 in OT) in 4 games for this Czech team. (Counting pre-tournament games as well.)
Unaccetable given the offensive talent this team offers, Varada is a letdown. At least the D played better this game, but they are still very bad.

I expect that Salda and Cajka will be added to the roster, Machala cut off, AHL line from beginning of the upcoming matches. They need to work on the powerplays.
Otherwise, good game from both sides, I really enjoyed it, hope that it will be close one against Canada tomorrow.

Russia looked awesome in the third and really took over.
Dostal saved us a lot with brilliant saves.
I've enjoyed Kvasnica but don't know what he was doing at the end dumping in corner.
Zadina is an amazing street hockey goalie!
I love how we played. I watch this tournament every year and the big 5 blow us out a lot! We belonged in this match.
Hopefully Varada rethinks how we setup... he needs to get Lauko, Kondlik and Pekar in the Top 6. Also, bring in Jenik and Salda. He has options and needs to use them.

I like that Kovalenko kid, he has skill and jam. And I just realized his old man is Andrei Kovalenko. Damn I feel old now.
