Huge upset: beat 3-2. They lost all their games at the Worlds last year and got relegated. First ever win for at the Olympics.

 

If beats and beats then Denmark qualifies for the quarterfinals O.o

just imagine for a second a quarterfinal Canada - Denmark

 

maybe our commonly shared record of the Olypics from 2010 would be in danger

Can't believe they played that game in Rogers Arena in front of a sold out 17k+ crowd, and it was even the thing CTV (the main TV network broadcasting the games) was showing. That must have been a wild experience for that Slovakian team, who I presume wasn't used to getting that kind of attention.

Yeah, I remember that match pretty well as well, it was also live in our TV, the first day of the Olympics, actually people were not so pissed since it was a couple of hours afer Slovakia won its first ever gold medal at the WOG so we had rather quite positive feelings, anyway this was a complete joke match, I do not remember how many times our girls get the puck from our D-zone

 

But they were so proud of making it to the Olympics and all atmosphere, I remember them crying in the middle of the rink afer all the cheering they received despite the massacre from the fantastic local fans in the stands.

One of the weakest Olympic tournament for Finland...

Räty getting left out, Mustonen forced to leave due to family...


Oh dear...

Sweden saved its Olympic hopes. China will be eliminated if Sweden/Denmark end with a winner in regular time.

4-2 after 2 periods

 

Good match, clearly 76522894687524 levels above all previous matches in this tournament

Really disappointing to see Finland fall on it's face during this tournament, pre-pandemic it really seemed like they were catching up (and tbh they are the rightful winner of the 2019 worlds).

 

and have a brutal arms race with each other, and it seems almost impossible for anyone else to keep up.
