WC Ice Hockey

[nampigai]

well it's starting in less than a week, Denmarks first game will be against.....the US of A ;D I'm very much looking forward to it allthough I fear we will get smacked there will allways be a possibility that they underestimate us. our national coach was asked if he honestly believed we had a chance of winning :P if he didn't,then why the hell would he send the players out on the ice? Anywho, I'm cheering for Denmark and my fav national team Canada.

[Egeides]

Yay-yay Canada!! Personally, I don't care as long as I'm not playing ;D

[nampigai]

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

5-2 Denmark beat the USA with 5-2. In the first period the US had 23 shots of wich 1 found the way to the goal. excellent keeping by Peter Hirsch (95,5% saved). Denmark had 5 shots of wich 3 of them found the goal.

Tommorow we are going to kick off Ukrainians. First victim on our second victory road... ;D

[nampigai]

If Russia won against Switzerland and Denmark can win against them too, then we should advance and hopefully stay among the A-nations

[nampigai]

Switzerland just ensured Denmarks advancment from their group play by winning against the US too, if Russia win against the US on Tuesday, the may be moved down to the B-league....the USA in B-league holy crap

[Caid Ivik]

USA, why should they won everywhere? But good work, 5:2 against homeland of most NHL is nice result...for Denmark ;D

Anyway, Jozef Stumpel just shot our third goal to Japan! SVK-JPN 3:1

[nampigai]

it's a GREAT result. A damn shame we got whooped by Russia though, we were to bold and they showed us who's in charge. but only 1 goal in first and 0 in 3rd period is still good against Russia IMO

[Caid Ivik]

Whatever. You'll show strength with Swisses ;)

SVK-JPN 10:1

Roughly...but succesfully!

[nampigai]

yea congrats mate, they took a hell of a beating. As for switzerland Denmark HAVE to win, if we do so we will take points with us in advancement. Can't wait to see Denmark - Canada and Tre Kronor.

I was talking with my friend about the World Cup and he mentioned that the record number of goals scored against one team was 47-0 which was a game between Canada and Denmark. Does anyone know if that is true?

[nampigai]

yes it's true it was the first time Denmark ever played a WC in Ice Hockey, I believe it's 50 years ago.

[nampigai]

hmm well we lost to Switzerland (6-2) but what the heck we stay in the A-League

[Gobalopper]

And you're playing Canada next! :)

[Andrew]

All I can say is Go Canada!!

Also are NHL players playing?? I seen Sundin playing and wondering since certain players are out of playoffs can they go to these tournaments in the middle of it?

[nampigai]

some of the NHL players are playing. And yes Gob I think I know who the victor of that game will be, but Denmark stays in A-League and the USA heads for a relegation round, having lost all their games in this world cup.

I was talking with my friend about the World Cup and he mentioned that the record number of goals scored against one team was 47-0 which was a game between Canada and Denmark. Does anyone know if that is true?

No. But long time was. In 80's was a match with about 54 goals on one side, but I don't remember who played. Record has Kazachstan, which decimated Island in B-group of WC 18 in 1997 (I think). 63:0...

[Caid Ivik]

Vladimir Orszagh just did his work...

Slovakia-Germany 3:1, 54 min

[nampigai]

this one needs a bump

Denmark - Canada 2-2 w00t w00t

and I guess the US had been given a little speech by their coach before beating Slovenia 7-2.

[Gobalopper]

I guess that was what we get beating you guys so bad last time we played. :D

[nampigai]

a secret only Gob must read this no one else so please turn away and leave

[hide]last time we played you only won 2-1, slowly but surely we will turn that and next time it'll be 2-1 to us and next time again 47-0 to us, trust me. Go put your money on it, it'll be worth it[/hide]

[Gobalopper]

The day Denmark beats Canada 47-0 is the day hockey dies! ;)

[nampigai]

not much of a keeper of secrets eh. anywho I'm very much satisfied with the results so far. I didn't see the game (was working) but had one record it for me, and I understand that it was well deserved that it ended with a draw.

Still I'm hoping for Canada in the finals there for we let you draw, instead of winning against you.

[Caid Ivik]

See this: we've beaten Finns in their homeland sanctuary 5:1! They fully lost power, in last three minutes they'd played powerplay, so we shot two goals into empty net ;D
