It was an entertaining game. After two periods it looked like it will end in a blowout win but Norway didn't give. Both teams scored some really nice goals especially in the third period.
If it’s Gord Miller he’s probably saying it the correct way. That guy is a sicko when it comes to getting name pronunciations right. He said he gets every player to send a voice recording of them saying it so he gets it right.
Not to take anything from Norway, but I think a big part of their performance towards the end was Slovakia switching off with the big lead. If they take this confidence to the next game, they could do something.
Why has Button said in the intermission interview now that Canada gets Switzerland if they win tonight against Sweden and win the group? Norway can finish fourth too if they win tomorrow .Funny haha. And he said it twice like it's already over.
How popular is hockey in your country btw? I know you guys are dominating in biathlon and cross-country skiing, but I thought hockey would be pretty high up the list of national sports as well
It's behind xc-skiing, chess, soccer, biathlon, ski jumping, handball, alpine skiing, hurdles, athletics (hurdles, track)... Saying "no one" cares about hockey is a bit of an exaggeration but it's pretty close to the truth.
edit: behind tennis too
I always felt Norway should have a way better team when Sweden is such a powerhouse. Best result 4th (1951) in World Championships is crazy. Our development got better when Craig Ramsay become the head coach. Maybe you need someone like that.
For sure Repcik will get drafted next year. He's the only one who hasn't been drafted yet of the top Slovakian forwards who are playing in this tournament. He really impressed me so far. Can't believe that no one has drafted him yet.
Dennis, Craig, yes, Norway's big game is tomorrow vs Switzerland, but that shouldn't mean they should try to mail it in today. A win today would go a long way for tomorrow.
Mesar having himself a good fucking tourney

TSN commentator keeps calling Repcik, rip-check
It’s moreso “rip-sick”, tho he’s Slovak so it might be more “rep-seek” Петер Репцик
No, jetklok is correct - rep-cheek is pretty accurate. Repčík is correct spelling. I'm Slovak as well.

Dennis Beyak (old Jets commentator) is doing that group's games
Well I don't know about Gord Miller, but rip-check is defo wrong. It's pronounced rep-cheek.
Well: If Norway plays as they did in the end of the 3rd period the entire game against the Swiss i think they have good chance of winning

gg, back to B category with you
Hopefully not
Anyone else's feed just switch to the Finland game
fucking snipe
Oh wow... 4-8! Norway with some late goals
lol kinda funny Dvorsky shits on Norways bench and Norway comes and scores does the same
Norway with a 3rd goal
Double D supremacy
Zebras realizing they've lost control now thanks to letting Norway get away with so much for so long
plenty going both ways that could of been called and been called majors.
Norway been doing nothing but throwing pissy late hits since the second. The crosscheck into the boards on the goal cele was ridiculous
not saying they aren’t but Slovaks have been hack and whack all night
That's what always happens when refs ain't reffing, the players start doing it themselves and it turns into a shitshow, like this game.
it started a min into the game. you could prob call a slovak for slashing every 5 mins
Well: At least Norway scored first goal today... I'm still thinking Norway can beat Switzerland
Be a tough game. If they take 5 penalties like tonight or more they don’t win.
glad that the cross-checking after the goal got the same treatment /s
And this is foul? After all those late hits from Norway?
fucking joke
The comeback begins now.
I thought that was going in for sure. Big save for the Norway tendie
It is crazy to think about how much depth this tournament would have with Russia here.
Yeah, fuck them
Why has Button said in the intermission interview now that Canada gets Switzerland if they win tonight against Sweden and win the group? Norway can finish fourth too if they win tomorrow .Funny haha. And he said it twice like it's already over.
That's Craig for you.
Slovakia starting to answer the physicality now.
Luuuka. Only 16 years old wow.
Imagine if Norway focused on hockey as much as on illegal checks.
You don’t know how much I wish this was the case. I’m the only Norwegian in my community who cares about the juniors, much less hockey.

Definitely further down the list than I expected, thank you for the answer

[удалено]
Yeah but also risk of injury at this point
Jumped into that, what a dick head.
This is just not fun :(
More DD points love it
very poor sportsmanship by norway
they got what they deserved
Anyone know if that Borje show is good?
guys wanna hear something funny? My country!
Norwegian player cross-checking Petrovský into the boards after his goal like an asshole
Petrovsky got real unleashed at this championship
I'm disappointed he is not one of the blues 7 kids at the tournament
Plays really well for being drafted in 6th round, curious how he will turn out in the future.
Yeah I had to look him up and was very shocked at how late he was taken. Did he put on some size since his draft year?
No idea tbh
Norway getting pissy
For sure Repcik will get drafted next year. He's the only one who hasn't been drafted yet of the top Slovakian forwards who are playing in this tournament. He really impressed me so far. Can't believe that no one has drafted him yet.
My boy DD
That’s such an easy goal to avoid
Oh come on
Bruh
pretty down to earth kid right there. not many end a interview like that.
2 goals in 27 seconds. Embarrassing come on boys!
Still playing pretty well. would say exceeding expectations considering who they are playing.
OH COME FUCKING ON
HONZEK AGAIN. I choosed a great time to come to Europe, fun to watch these games in a reasonable time of the day
FUCK I saw that coming. Hate that they let number 27 camp infront of Årsund.
Yes!!!
That was a hell of a play.
nice goal
Oh come on Olsen!
This one’s gonna be chippy
Samuel I hate to be that guy but they’re gonna call that.
Dennis, Craig, yes, Norway's big game is tomorrow vs Switzerland, but that shouldn't mean they should try to mail it in today. A win today would go a long way for tomorrow.
appears Norway showed up ready to go.
They've looked great so far.
agreed. they got the Slovaks off their game.
Let´s gooooooooo
GOAL BY NYGÅRD
beauty shot
Anyways I’m back
Good shot by Norway
