Wow ! what a educational video about off-sides in hockey by Marián Hossa :lol: He scored 2 goals last night against Arizona, and both were too close of the offside, the first one maybe was, but the second one is just a fantastic and briliant example how to avoid the off-side in the best possible way

Swiss 4 Nations Tournament,

 

So, About our prestations I already wrote few words above, but still I can´t understand and can´t believe what just happened today...this was one disgusting display which absolutely does not belong to our National team.

Slovakia lost to Belarus shamefully without any visible effort to Belarus 1-7. Historical highest defeat against this team...and will play tomorrow only for 3rd place against France. "Les Bleus" lost in the trans-alpine derby to host Switzerland 0-1.

 

so in the final tomorrow Switzerland will play Belarus, and for the 3rd place Slovakia will face France.

Swiss 4 Nations Tournament,

 

well, well a crazy tournament we had in Biel.

 

The host country Switzerland won the tournament, today Switzerland won in final against Belarus  easily 6-1.

 

Slovakia finished 3rd winning the 3rd place match also easily against France 6-1.

 

So after winning the Deutschland Cup in November now we got slapped in the face. Thanks god this break is over and we will try to forget as soon as possible yesterday flop, still can´t understand how we lost so largely to Belarus, they showed absolutely nothing today against SUI in the final. nothing...

now we will wait for the February break for another tournaments presentation, we will send 2 teams, "A" team will compete in the traditional Slovakia Cup and once again we were invited by Austria to play the hockey challenger in Vienna, so we will send there our so-called "olympic hopes team" a team composed of under 23 category players.
