SO....before we get too overconfident....the Czech team was dead. They may as well have stayed home. If you watched the Canada/Finland game, they were flying up and down the ice. An unbelievable game. We don't want to have to play Finland in their home rink in front of their fans. From what I saw, the USA is methodical and efficient, but the Finns play with more speed (I won't say "skill" but almost) and they certainly have more firepower. When the USA plays a team that can skate and check with them, they're not getting seven goals. But Finland scored six against a Canada team that we were life and death with. I'm thinking we match up better with Sweden (even though we lost to them, we outplayed them and seemed to be able to "control" them).
BTW - Canada finished 6th.
How is this determined? Is it just based on the seedings prior to the quarters of the four teams that lost today? The higher seeds all one today, correct? Canada was third in their group, Czech was third in the other group. The two fourth seeds (Denmark and Slovakia) also lost. So how do they determine 5h through 8th place. Seems reasonable that the third seeds would be 5th and 6th, the fourth seeds 7th and 8th, but with no common opponents in the preliminary round, how do they choose 5th over 6th?
That Finland-Canada game was hockey porn. It's going to be hard to top.
Can't find any livestream link on the NHL network site. If I remember correctly, the livestream links were not posted until gameday previously, correct? I have to travel Monday and will be stuck streaming, so help me out boys and girls!
I'll do my best, but generally I find mine on reddit.com/r/nhlstreams
Hopefully this works for both games. http://www.ustream.tv/channel/iihf-finland/pop-out
