and the first day of the 2019 World Champs does open with a (not so huge) upset...Finland beat canada 3-1, thanks also to a couple of goals by the young rising star Kaapo Kakko...

 

in the other match of the afternoon, Russia took a 5-0 lead over Norway without doing anything special and then went to sleep a bit too early, allowing the Scandinavians to score 2 goals in the final minutes of the game...5-2 for the "Sbornaja", the final score...

 

and now are on the ice the defending world champions, Sweden and the Czech Republic in Bratislava and, above all, the Home Nation against the mighty US boys in Kosice...

and Slovakia had quite a strong start, opening the score early, but the USA now have tied the game, 1-1, with less than 2 minutes to play in the first period...

I hope our friend @hckosice can enjoy the night and, above all, I hope he can survive the emotions of such an experience...:lol:

Slovakiaaaaaa!!! what a start of second period! :hyper:

 

now it's 3-1 for the Home Nation after only 5 mins of the middle stint...hopefully, there are no bad news about any heart attack among the spectators at the Steel Arena, yet...which is the most important thing in a moment like this...:rofl::roflmao::facepalm:

and it's ooooooveeeerrrrrr!!! Slovakia won their Home World Champs opener against the NHL stars-filled US team by a score of 4-1...

 

wonderful team effort by the home side...and special mention of honor for an amzing Patrick Rybar between the pipes (even if the prize for the player of the game went to his teammate Sukel)...

 

and now...

 

 

or, if you prefer...

here we have 3 minutes and a few seconds still to be played (and SWE are already playing without their goaltender)...

 

3rd upset of the day coming...:whistle::p:lol:
