what a shame!  

 

I don't want to hear about Italian Hockey anymore for the rest of my life!

Yes, even Polish media called beating Italy a "great victory" and a  "shock"

when you hit rock bottom, you can always start digging  

 

finally,  survived the scare and won 6-4 vs  but man, we're really experiencing the most embarassing team / tournament ever. 

 

still, I wouldn't be shocked if on Friday we could earn a place in the Top Division beating  badly on their home ice.

 

but it would be the most undeserved success in the history of the sport.

plays on the final day. Surely we can't blow this up now?

Do not want to jinx it, (I strongly wish and hope return to the top division so much + you guys deserve it after all the works lately.) but I am quite certain you will beat without too much troubles, I watched a couple of their games and at first sight it is clearly visible they are generally much slower than your players, they have some skilled guys in the first line but your game pace will be too high for them to climb

 

Anyways, gonna be fun to watch also as a interesting coaches match between both slovak head coaches (your Robi Kalaber and their Július Penzes)

I still remember the days when we couldn't beat who didn't enter field hockey players on ice after all   Predicting any success for Polish ice hockey is extremely naive but if we can't beat Romania then I don't know how low the bar must be set for us to jump over it
