Robin Hanzl scored the winner. Hanzal, a 28-year-old HC Litvinov forward in his first Worlds, beat Finnish goalie Joonas Korpisalo with a nice backhand deke. He was the only scorer in the shootout. In regulation time, Roman Horak, Radko Gudas, and Jan Kovar got goals for the Czechs, and David Pastrnak added two helpers. For Finland, captain Valtteri Filppula tallied a goal and an assist, and Topi Jaakola and Ville Lajunen also scored for Finland. Mikko Rantanen had two helpers. The Czechs, whose last medal was bronze in 2012, have struggled with consistency in this tournament, but this has to be a huge morale-booster. After falling 4-1 to Canada and thumping Belarus 6-1, they outshot Finland 34-21 and never gave up. The Finns, silver medalists in 2016, were hoping for a bounceback game after their stunning 5-1 loss to host France. And coach Lauri Marjamaki's team got off to a dream start. Just 58 seconds in, Filppula collected the garbage from Sebastian Aho’s wraparound attempt and pushed it over the line. At 2:41, Finland went up 2-0 when Jaakola’s high shot fluttered past Czech starter Petr Mrazek. And at 13:52, Lajunen hammered a rising shot from the center point that fooled the goalie through traffic to make it 3-0. The Finns didn't know it yet, but this dream would turn into a nightmare. In the second period, the Czechs just couldn't turn on the red light, despite the vigorous chanting of their fans at the AccorHotels Arena. Jan Kovar and David Pastrnak had beautiful chances on the rush, but Korpisalo warded them off. Finnish World Championship rookie Jesse Puljujarvi drew a crowd mid-period after he gave Mrazek a snow shower. The Czechs’ second-period highlight was when burly defenceman Radko Gudas sent Rantanen tumbling head over heels with a hip check. The tide finally turned in the third. During the fourth Czech power play, Korpisalo twice stoned Kovar on the doorstep. But he couldn't foil Horak, who took Pastrnak's pass from the goal line and whacked it past Korpisalo's left pad at 7:37. Coach Josef Jandac's boys made a spirited late push, and it paid off. Gudas pounded a drive past Korpisalo from the top of the faceoff circle with 2:14 left. Just 23 seconds later, Kovar broke through, capitalizing on Jaakola's defensive-zone giveaway and slidingthe puck through both the defenceman's legs and Korpisalo to tie it up. Finland had the better chances in overtime. Mrazek foiled Aho on a clear-cut breakaway, and Puljujarvi came close when he charged to the net for a Filppula set-up. But close isn't good enough here. The Finns could have had three points here, but settled for one. Next up, the Finns take on Slovenia on Wednesday, while the Czechs face Norway on Thursday.

MEN'S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS 2017 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Preliminary Round DAY 4 Group A Central European Summer Time (GMT +2) United States 4 - 3 Sweden Period-by-Period: 2-3, 1-0, 1-0 May 8th 2016, h. 20:15, LANXESS Arena, Cologne USA edges Sweden Compher snatches winner late on Despite trailing three times, Team USA kept its cool, survived a Swedish onslaught, and grabbed a gutsy victory after two fine goals from Johnny Gaudreau. Team USA made it back-to-back wins here in Cologne, edging Sweden 4-3 with a never-say-die performance. In a game between two of the fancied teams in the group, both nations knew that victory would go a long way towards moving clear of a nerve-shredding battle to make the last eight, and they delivered a topsy-turvy encounter that saw two goals apiece from Elias Lindholm and Johnny Gaudreau as the Americans came from behind repeatedly to snatch the win. J.T. Compher put team USA ahead for the first time in the game with just eight minutes to play. The 22-year-old Colorado prospect, playing in his second World Championship, got the tip on a Connor Murphy shot from the point to defy a prolonged spell of Scandinavian pressure and set his country on the way to an encouraging victory. Sweden, though, will be wondering what more it had to do to win this game. The Tre Kronor led three times without finishing off the Americans. Going into the final stanza locked at 3-3, the Swedes produced a blistering passage of play, aided by two US penalties, but failed to put the puck in the net. So disciplined was Rikard Gronborg’s team that it went 55 minutes without even taking a penalty – only to pay three visits to the box in the dying minutes when panic took hold. It didn’t take long to get this game warmed up: the teams traded goals inside the first four minutes to set the tone for the evening’s entertainment. Lindholm shot Sweden into the lead from the top of the circle after Anton Stralman deked on a shot and found his team-mate in space. But that advantage lasted less than a minute before Clayton Keller added to Sunday’s hat-trick with his fourth goal of the championship, gobbling up the rebound from a Jack Eichel shot to beat Viktor Fasth. Lindholm, recovered from the minor knock he sustained during Saturday’s 7-2 romp against Germany, was back on the scoresheet in the 14th minute with a goal that somewhat resembled his opener. This time it was Olive Ekman-Larsson who provided the feed and Lindholm supplied the finish from his preferred location around the face-off dot. But Lindholm wasn’t the only forward in form in this game. Team USA’s Gaudreau shows every sign of enjoying his return to the World Championship and the 24-year-old’s blistering pace scorched through Sweden to tie the game once again on 18:12 of the first. Gaudreau latched onto Dylan Larkin’s clearance, leaving Jonas Brodin wrong-footed on the US blue line with a shake of the hips as he blazed a streak down the ice. The finish was clinical, going five-hole on Fasth for a fine goal. Parity lasted a mere 35 seconds, however. Joel Lunqvust wrestled possession of the puck in the corner, Carl Klingberg fed Victor Hedman and the D-man smashed home a one-timer to give Sweden the edge at the first intermission. The scoring had to slow down after that breathless opening stanza, but nobody warned Gaudreau. His second of the night was another fine play as he carved through the Swedish defence with his linemates Eichel and Anders Lee. Gaudreau started it with an interception in his own zone, then it was tic-tac-toe down the ice until the Calgary Flames man finished off the move and tied the game again. Now, at last, the goalies began to shape events with a big save at each end to keep the scores level through 40 minutes. Jimmy Howard was first to show, getting his blocker behind another Hedman thunderbolt. Then Fasth denied Eichel with a flailing arm towards the top corner as the Americans sought the lead for the first time on the night. Sweden, looking to force a victory that would have lifted it to seven points from a possible nine, began the third period at high speed. The early stages were played in front of Howard’s net as the USA tried to kill a couple of penalties. Victor Rask spurned a fabulous opportunity, firing past a wide-open net, then Lindholm dragged the puck wide of the target after Hedman found him unmarked on Howard’s doorstep. Those missed opportunities proved so costly for Sweden when Compher snatched the game-winner against the run of play soon after.

I´m watching mainly USA-SWE in TV but also have the FIN-CZE stream on my PC, so time by time I check a look on it, and from what I see, the result doesn´t reflect the real things on ice, the match looks be very equal, the czechs are playing a lot of time in the Finns defensive zone, but somehow can not score, in other hand Finland seems have tonight very high shooting efficiency

MEN'S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS 2017 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Preliminary Round DAY 4 Group B Central European Summer Time (GMT +2) Belarus 0 - 6 Canada Period-by-Period: 0-1, 0-2, 0-3 May 8th 2016, h. 16:15, AccorHotels Arena, Paris Canada rolls along, 6-0 Big Mac attack continues in one-sided win Nathan MacKinnon kept his hot hand going, scoring two more goals and adding a great assist. Mitch Marner added two signature helpers of his own. Canada continued its dominance over Belarus, winning for the tenth straight time in World Championship competition without a loss. The win keeps Canada atop the Group B standings with a perfect 3-0 record while Belarus falls to 0-3 and in desperate need of some points to avoid relegation. Brayden Point started and finished the scoring, and Jeff Skinner had a goal and two assists. MacKinnon now leads the tournament in goals with five, and he, Skinner, and defenceman Tyson Barrie all have seven points, second behind Russia's Artemi Panarin. Cal Pickard earned the shutout this afternoon by stopping just 13 shots. It was clear from the outset that Belarus had no answer for Canada’s puck pressure. And, when Canada had the puck, the players showed creativity and imagination in making short, crisp passes, creating all kinds of scoring chances. Belarus goalie Mikhail Karnaukhov was peppered with 45 shots, many of them good scoring chances. Canada led 1-0 after the first period, but the score didn’t come close to telling the story of puck possession by Canada. Belarus was simply happy when it cleared its end or managed a distant and harmless shot on Cal Pickard. That first goal came off a nice pass by Marner to Brayden Point in the slot. He took aim and drilled a shot over the shoulder of Karnaukhov at 5:08. MacKinnon scored a pair of goals in the second. The first, at 4:20 on the power play, was an exact replica of one he scored yesterday from the left faceoff dot. He cradled the puck, then wired a snap shot to the top corner over the goalie’s glove. The second was the result of some terrible luck by Belarus. First, Artyom Demkov broke his stick, and as Canada passed the puck around taking advantage of the situation, the puck bounced off Demkov’s skate and went right to the goal line. MacKinnon poked it home for his fifth goal in the last five periods of play. And just to show he's not all shot, MacKinnon took a pass at centre ice early in the third, went deep, and pushed a lovely pass out to Jeff Skinner at the blue ice. Skinner roofed the puck at 7:01 of the third to make it 4-0. Over the second and third periods the Belarussians took six successive penalties as they just couldn't keep up. Canada got another goal at 10:16 as a result. Just as Pavel Vorobei came out of the box for serving another delay of game penalty--the team's second of the day--Claude Giroux snapped a rebound past Karnaukhov to make it 5-0. Point added his second on a nice toe drag and hitting the same spot over Karnaukhov's shoulder as he did the first time. The goal, at 14:42, made it 6-0. Canada now has some time off and doesn’t play again until Thursday in a much-anticipated match against hosts France. Belarus has one day off and plays Switzerland on Wednesday.

MEN'S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS 2017 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Preliminary Round DAY 4 Group A Central European Summer Time (GMT +2) Germany 3 - 6 Russia Period-by-Period: 0-3, 0-2, 3-1 May 8th 2016, h. 16:15, LANXESS Arena, Cologne Russian power play aids victory Shipachyov and Panarin guide the offense Russia continued to roll with a 6-3 win over home favorite Germany. Vadim Shipachyov had two goals and Artemi Panarin added four assists as Russia picked up its third win of the tournament. Germany knew it would have its hands full with Russia's many talented skaters. If Germany had any chance to contain Russia it would mean extra attention to defence but also staying as disciplined as possible so that the Russian power play, already dangerous in the tournament, would not have time to set up. Coming into this contest, Russia scored six power play goals on eight attempts. But in a five minute stretch of the first period Germany lost one of its best players who they rely upon to score and found themselves three goals down and the game seemingly out of reach. Vadim Shipachyov scored 1:04 into the game that gave Russia a very early lead. The thirty-year-old Shipachyov recently signed with the Vegas Golden Knights, the latest expansion team to join the NHL. Germany tried leveling things when Panarin was called for hooking. They would get some chances with the man advantage, including Tobias Rieder attempting to get a backhand shot off in the crease but unable to do so. Then at 13:27 Patrick Hager was called for slew footing Sergei Mozyakin down to the ice. Mozyakin was slow in getting up and had to be helped off the ice. He would not return. "I didn’t think the Germans were a dirty team, it’s hockey." Nikita Gusev said. "We had a couple of unfortunate moments and obviously Mozyakin’s injury was a blow." Hager was given a five minute major and game misconduct. As Germany’s leading scorer in the tournament, this would be a huge loss. Russia used the five minute advantage to score two goals by moving the puck well and getting quality shots. Shipachyov would get his second at 17:10 and Sergei Plotnikov another at 18:15 to make it 3-0. In the second, Gusev would get on the scoreboard at 11:10 and nearly had another a few minutes later when he zipped past the defenders on a breakaway. Thomas Greiss was there to stop the shot but at 15:16 he couldn’t hold off Nikita Kucherov who would convert on his breakaway chance. The puck was misplayed by Yannic Seidenberg and went through his legs. Kucherov anticipated where the puck was going and caught it in the neutral zone and off on a break. The Russian machine was on again and executing with deadly accuracy. Rieder was also hurt in the game and would not return; another important cog in the German offense. Germany would give the home fans something to cheer when Brooks Macek scored in the third period. Macek slipped a rebound between the pads of Andrei Vasilevski to break get his team on the board. Then with a two-man advantage, Germany added a second goal as the second penalty was expiring. Philip Gogulla redirected the puck through Vasilevski. Not to be outdone, Russia would get a sixth goal as Kucherov would add his second of the game. Finally, youngster Frederik Tiffels added Germany's third goal with assists going to Marcus Kink and Dennis Seidenberg. If there was any consolation for the Germans is that their third period was markedly better than the first two and something they can carry into their next game against Slovakia on Wednesday. "We took some bad penalties that put us behind and we couldn’t recover." Marco Sturm said. "We have three points against three really good teams. Playing against good, and better players, you learn a lot and we know we cannot afford some of the mistakes in the upcoming games." They also had captain Christian Ehrhoff back in the lineup. Ehrhoff had been out with an injury to start the tournament. Russia, on the other hand, was not as strong or as sharp in the third as they were over the first forty minutes but still undefeated and standing atop the group here in Cologne. "We picked up a few unnecessary penalties in the third, that left a bit more space on the ice and they took advantage of that." Kucherov said. "It’s good to play in front of big crowds, almost like home crowds. It’s a big help for us, especially when our fans are making more noise than the Germans. We’re playing some decent hockey and hopefully the fans are enjoying it."
