WJC 2022 Discussion

[Prior]

Jack Peart with an assist on PP. Think he has already logged more icetime than Lambos in similar role (listed as 7th D for the game).

As the tournament goes on they will realize he’s one of their best defenders not named Sanderson. Probably the best PP QB in the whole tournament as well.

Russia doesn’t have a single right-handed player on their team. Askarov is, but aside from him, zero skaters.

Wallstedt getting tested early vs Slovakia.

 

[melinko]

Wallstedt gets away with knocking the net off on the PK to help teammate who lost stick.

His body language gives me elite goalie vibes that occasionally lets in a weak one. ie. Roberto Luongo

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Nice shutout.

 

[Obvious Fabertism]

Dominant performance for Wallstedt, he looked so composed throughout the bombardment.

 

[16thOverallSaveUs]

Nice shutout.

Not a bad performance. .961sv% in the tournament

Slovakia is really good, btw. Any of the Big 5 who plays them is in danger of being upset.

Doesn't look like Lambos or O'Rourke is having a good tournament. Similar to Marat last year?

Did they dress for tonight's game? I saw they were listed as the 7/8 defensemen in the pregame lineup

Yes. Both about 5 minutes through the 2nd period.

[DANOZ28]

[57special]

So, the WJC appears to be cancelled?

 

[guitarhunterdude]

well that didn't pan out

 

[Dr Jan Itor]

Fun discussion guys.

 

[MuckOG]

Looks like we wont see Marat (and potentially Kaprizov and other Russian players )in international play anytime soon.

So they are going to punish hockey players for the actions of their politicians? Are you kidding me?

Not unprecedented for athletes to be used as pawns. See 1980 Olympics. I do feel bad for the players, they didn't ask for any of this.

 

[north21]

But we should have more common sense then to repeat those mistakes.
