Men's Ice Hockey IIHF Under 20 World Championship 2019

I hope we'll work our scoring and gameplay against Kazakhstan & Slovakia, because we'll need to be ready to face the U.S

lol Galyumov what a empty net miss

[hckošice 16,613]

Finally that our first freaking power play goal in this tourney

[hckošice 16,613]

really dumb move from Fehervary before the 2nd SWE goal...but that´s another valuable experience for him I guess

[hckošice 16,613]

lol Sveningsson what a own goal

[hckošice 16,613]

Alarming PP stats, I couldn´t imagine we´ll be so bad in this, considering our offensive potential we have this year with kinds of Pospíšil, Ružička, Kukuča or Ivan 0 points after two games is not impressive and encouraging neither, especially with that feling that in both games there were room for point(s), now it´s all over again only a 1 must win do-or-die match against Kazakhstan...hopefully we´ll have also some luck we hadn´t in the previous  matches, to avoid the relegation round and confirm the fact we are still one of the few countries that was never relegated since the first introduction among the world junior elite in 1996.

 

In other hand Sweden is now 46 wins in a row in U20 World Championships Round-Robin matches. Unbelievable ! Last time they lost a Preliminary Round game in tis tournament is New Years Eve 2006 !!! This is just Epic stat. Still hard to understand that Sweden won only 2 golds in all history of the U20 Worlds, but in other hand never missed the semifinals in last 15 editions (5 times finished 4th though) and for example U18 team never managed to win gold
