Okay since you kind of called Japan.  Let me ask you about the 2 games that matter tomorrow.

 

 

Ukraine must win to advance.  Any trouble winning over Estonia ?

 

Your take on Romania vs Great Britain ?

Frankly, I don´t think there should be any surprises in these matches.

 

The day off yesterday certainly helped the Ukrainians. They know what is at stake today. And their nature is always the same, They will go for it at full gas, I don´t believe a second that they would be able to underestimate Estonia today. Maybe some small nervousness can tie hands at the beginning of the match, but the significant difference in quality should prevail by the end. No, it´s hard to expect any other result than a Ukrainian victory.

 

The Brits are the favorite too. And I think they will make it too. The Romanians need a hell of big day of their goalie and perhaps tactical substitutions, sending their checking line against the GBR first line regularly with anti-hockey system in an attempt to make them hate the game and eliminate their power. I do not see any other way to reverse the British triumph :p

Estonia had the edge on Ukraine in 2018 and 2019, but since then Ukraine has been better.  How fun would it be to have OT in that game?

 

Romania has no real chance against GB; in recent history against this level of opponent (Division 1A or better) they have one win (against Lithuania) and not many games that were even close.

    • It's only temporary as the hockey season starts soon and there was not enough time apparently to rebrand.
    • OMG, can't believe there's a North American team whose name doesn't consist of a toponymy and a random plural noun
    • Just create a sub-event and call it "snow cross-country" if that is all it will take for it to be permissible at the Winter Olympics.  
    • Extremely divided opinion.   Public:   Some take it as a fact and justify it under the point that a lot is at stake (not qualifying for the Olympics in hockey = unimaginable national tragedy) so we need the best available regardless where they are gaining their bread, Some (Pro-Kremlin/Pro-Current governement) are super excited, Some (Anti-Kremlin/Anti-our current governement and traditional hockey fans) are sad - some of them have even black screen avatars... but at the end will still watch and cheer, because missing the Olympics with such generation we currently have would be a huge waste and would not be fair... Some (Anti-Kremlin/Anti-our current Governement and casual hockey/sport fans) are shocked and disapprove to the point of considering = calling in medias to boycot the team and the tournament.   Players:   Several players expressed that they do not want to play in the national team as long as there are players from the KHL (there are names we are missing in this roster without more special informations added why, like Cehlárik, Slafkovský, Černák...), Some were some were begged on knees by the coach staff for this tournament (Like Martin Pospíšil, Feherváry or Lantoši... especially Pospíšil last days called he will not play if the KHLers will really be invited... only last night came statement of hime and his brother who is also in the team that they will both came and play for the country... as there is a lot at stake "We did not change our oppinion, but we want to help Slovakia to be at the Olympics... and play there" https://sport.aktuality.sk/hokej/clanok/martin-pospisil-sa-rozhodol-bude-reprezentovat-slovensko-2024081819450673443.   All in all, It is bad. I am seriously worried and afraid, ...no..., I am convinced that now two "camps" will be formed within the team, the pro and anti and seriously, I can´t even imagine how it can work in a TEAM.   I am really afraid. Normally, such roster even without Slaf, Černák, Cehlárik and others missing would very likely win this group, but, who knows what will happen now...
    • Hi, idiot here, cross country running and cyclo cross should ABSOLUTELY be in the winter games but the same 20 odd countries are afraid of opening up their games to outsiders    They have their rule about games being needed to be played on snow and ice but IMO that’s a far more ridiculous idea than allowing cross country running in.     
    • I think you are using a "small" screen. Here is what I see from a 1920px width screen:     I would suggest you to zoom out the whole website (ctrl on your keyboard+wheel on your mouse out, or ctrl on your keyboard+ "-" symbol on your keyboard). I think the website would be optimized for your screen if you set the zoom to 60-80%. Can you try that and let me know?
    • I had to admit that I liked the skateboard park event, it remind me the games I used to play on my ps2
    • Now I’m saying thank god Lavreysen exists ❤️ enjoy your silvers richardson
    • After a rough look I see 16 countries that have secured the minimum standards for at least one athlete. I think there will be a few more today in Perito Moreno. Aruwin Salehhuddin of Malaysia was a surprise to me, but I see that she qualified for Beijing as well.
