Men's Ice Hockey IIHF World Championship 2021

[hckošice 13,275]

As expected, enormous lesson and experiences for our youngs, is absolutely a medal contender this year, maybe this is even the year of their so awaited 1st world title.

 

They are just amazing, that match against Sweden was a one time fluke I believe under the circumstances, Swiss needed that slap to return back to earth and work, Sweden just needed that angry super performance they showed against SUI, but I am sure this was the only lose conced in this group. Their play is great. Hard luck for us to play them right after SUI lose, but overall, it does not change many things. we are here to learn, SUI for medal. our goals are totally different. Hischier & co are just too good for our boys.

 

Anyway, let not give up and let try to score at least that goal for "pride"

5 + 20 minutes penalty for spitting on the opponent's sleeve

[hckošice 13,275]

we had today 60 penalty minutes 2 times major 5+20 minutes penalties.

 

I really do not think the needed so big effort from the referees today, they were clearly better even without these free power play goals

 

Anyway, congrats well deserved win and schooling.

 

first lose of the tourney for us, well, it had to happen one day or another. let continue our work and progress, next two games this weekend will show us if these kids are worth of quarterfinals.

This game was a huge shame from the referees. Felt dissapointed when one of them was from . Anyways, I did not really thr second 5+20? The Czech reporters were also confused. Don't tell me it was the spitting part..... Live results says spearing. But did not see him doing that at all ....

supposed spearing was the original call for 2 minutes but was negated by the mutual 2 min for the SUI player, however the referee explained to our bench that the linesmen saw Rosandič spitting on his opponent sleeve and punished him by second 5 minutes major penalty

 

Anyway the footage on our TV showed he was spitting in front of him on the ice but just then the Swiss somehow ran in and got the spit on his sleeve just above his wrist  so from 4 on 4 play it was suddenly 5 minutes major penalty for Switzerland.
