7:2 Russia

 

[ovikovy817]

Magic man in action again on that 1st goal

 

[Belizarius]

what a boring 1st period.

 

[IceHockeyDude]

Is there any rivalry between Russia and Belarus?

Sharangovich looking good. No surprise though.

 

[Kshahdoo]

Barabanov is very good at the tournament.

 

[IceHockeyDude]

No.

Really? Are they that close?

 

[Alex K]

Really? Are they that close?

Yes

 

[Belizarius]

Belarus is really weak. They had to restart their roster from scratch, because the veteran were finished and partying too much.
The kids here have talent, but not anywhere close to what it's required at this level at this point.

Only Sharangovich and Vorobei, 20, are leading the team. Both are really good.

 

[Belizarius]

Datsyuk is god.

 

[Alex K]

Grigorenko is a f**king moron!

 

[Kshahdoo]

Grigorenko is a f**king moron!

As good as he was in a previous game, he's absolutely useless this game. I think, they should add Gusev to Anisimov and Buchnevich.

 

[Kshahdoo]

6-0 after two 7-0s, not good.

 

[ViD]

Have we ever started with 3 shut outs in a row ?

 

[DivochLubo]

That Grigorenko with that sweet between legs pass to Anisimov for scoring chance? Think Gusev would work fine with Mamin and Malkin if Penguins would get eliminated.

I think it was Buchnevich, but not sure.

 

[Retroglyphs]

6-0 after two 7-0s, not good.

Watching Team Russia decline from here.
Game 4 - 5:0, Game 5 - 4:0, Game 6 - 3:0, Game 7 - 2:0, QF - 1:0, SF

 

[Asmodian]

SF 1:0 in overtime Final 1:0 in penalty shootout. No goals conceded that would be pretty amazing championship
