America has to lose against Canada (possible) and either Denmark or Germany. Slovakia has to win all their games.

Or some unexpected Canada/Finland losses.

Can’t catch Germany no matter what.

yes, all unlikely scenarios...Draisaitl's goal just killed an entire Nation, I fear...

 

it's a real pity that after such an amzing start, SVK just lost their minds...because I'm pretty sure that losing games like they did vs CAN and above all GER it's only a matter of mental issues...

I think the US losing to Canada and Germany/Denmark is possible. Let’s hope. It’s not just in the realm of obscurity yet.

Back from the match.

 

What a fantastic atmosphere and terrible but seriously terrible ending. The luckyest team won today and the better lost, never mind, that´s just a sport. this is a beautiful sport and things like this something happen, sadly this is the second time we lost this way. it didn´t work this time, but our guys should be proud with what they showed at this tournament.

 

Our problem was clearly the goaltending, oh god, how much we needed Boston to be eliminated. Halák would surely never allow that last second goal to Canada and todays drastic end with Germany.

 

Our quarterfinals hopes are over. That´s really sad. but anyway I enjoyed the atmosphere and everything (except that end ofc lol)

 

 

and now about my experience at the Arena. What a atmosphere this was. something any real sport fan is dreaming his entire life.

Already the entrance to the arena was like a neverending movie, I felt like being somewhere in Kaboul main station or something. 3 different controls zones (one stricter than the other) you have to pass to finally being able to enter the stadium. but once you are there wow. peoples who watched it in TV will know what about I´m saying. I lterally have no voice.

 

Once again pity, for the result, being 2 minutes of the quarterfinals and lost everything this way that hurts, trust me, that freakingly hurts, but the whole atmosphere and our team spirit even after the match was something so awesome to see and experience, that who cares about the result. we´ll not make the quarterfinals but YES we are a Hockey republic.
