Mysak was our best forward whenever he was on the ice. That was like, during the 3 shifts he got all game.
Can't wait for Hadamczik's excuses, what a f***ing idiot.

Not terrible performance from Slovaks, the individual skill gap is obviously large between us and Russia. But we weren’t completely dominated, and our individual players impressed such as cajkovic and Chromiak. I wouldn’t be surprised if cajkovic finished with 7 or 8 goals this tournament. I was also surprised by the play of turansky, maybe he has good tournament and gets 6-7th round draft consideration. He was also good at hlinka tournament. Bad game for other big guns Jellus and mrazik imo need to be better

Really don't want to get into politics (you can answer me on PM), but didn't Lukashenko said that he is willing to unite with Russia ?
No way. Lukashenko understands that independence is the only way to keep his power and says a lot of controversial things to save it. He declares something nice about Russia and gets money for it, that's all. "Your money for our friendship". That's how he survives for 25 years.

We might have the worst run federation of the top 6... By might I mean we absolutely do.

Hadamczak will soon be playing our third string goalie, benching our best players and praising all the blocked shots and grit after every loss.

A regulation loss to start tourney and not playing your best players... Textbook

Without a doubt. I wonder if getting relegated would be enough for some change, but probably not. Seeing the progress Belarus and Germany are making, they might pass us soon at the junior level.

Yeah, they'd probably blame it all on the new progressive guys and fire them while keeping the old guard. They really are run a lot like the Oilers. Even the fact that our cupboards are thin and guys like Zacha and Palat have no problem turning us down is concerning (not that Palat has said no, I'm just guessing that is coming).

Even the coach talking about how he'll let the NHL players come over and tryout. He'd like them there as early as possible. It sounds like he wants them to kiss his ass a little.

They really are though. Once a power to be recognized, now a laughing stock, doing one panic move after another and ruining even the little talent they have. Damn, it's actually terrifying how similar Edmonton and Czech hockey are. :laugh:
