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.
