U18: U18 day 5!

[Pazucha]

Number 14 from Germany played really good

Wouldn’t surprise me if Germany doesn’t bring Niehus to upcoming tournaments after this preformance.

He is now second all time with 54 PIMs. In one tournament and cost us any chance at winning the game.

Philippe Seydoux holds the record with 68.

just for me there is no audio on latvia-norway?

Kevin Bicker.

Agreed. excellent game.

So assuming Czechs don't beat Canada, we play the Finland or Swtizerland. I still think Czechs can beat Canada though.

I want the Swiss cheese please.

Dvorsky currently second best goal scorer at the tournament, 1 goal behind USA's Eiserman.

Kevin Bicker.

Agreed. excellent game.

Absolutely. He was so dangerous on the breakaways which he basically created for himself out of nothing with his superb acceleration. Any chance he gets drafted?

 

[Antiillafire]

What a game from Germany. Excellent match overall @GermanSpitfire.

Slovaks will need to be way sharper against Finland. Is there a goaltending debate or do you stick with Urban ?

 

[kudla]

Dvorsky's statistics in his last 2 games against U18 Germany are literally 7+4

No debate. Urban was good this game too, he stays. That save on the PP when it was 4 - 4 saved us.

German hockey stinks. They've seemed like the ideal country to make a jump(big population, rich country, good sporting tradition and a good pro league to feed into/sponsor minor teams), and they have in small numbers (with players like Drais and Seider coming along) but I'd like to see some depth come through there. I dunno if it's just a popularity problem but they aren't getting the kind of players they need to in order to be more competitive.

 

[Czechboy]

Slovaks on a collision course with Finland if I had to guess.

Yeah Swiss aren't beating USA.

If Canada wins over Czechia, that is. Should be a tight game.

 

[tobu]

I still think Czechia can steal a win from Canada, they are playable.

We are on a collision course with Canada and then US.lol Hrabal's stats are about to take a hit.

They get better with every game and are slow starters. If we had them first, maybe. Game 4 - ouch! I look forward to it more than I do the US quarter...

Yeah problem is that we have no forwards no offense except for Sale and he is not a goalscorer so we´re fd. I am also getting lower and lower on Sale, he is skilled but he is a floater, his compete scares me...

You are overacting. Yes they are not on same level as Canada, USA, Finland, Russia and Czechs/slovaks, but they are still good and a top notch above the likes of Sweden, Switzerland, Latvia etc.

Yeah still they dont look so strong this year plus we have the best player in this match up

Still I'm not sure, if he was so quick or D were so slow. Probably both.

You dry-humored Scandinavians are amusing (definitely missed this on the initial glance)

Heidt has had another few games to settle in with the team, only played 14 mins against Slovakia. He can be a game breaker

 

[MeHateHe]

Were Latvia and Norway even trying to score today?
