Oh, look, #SUIGER in the #IIHFWorlds quarterfinals again. Looks like another family rivalry at my place. #IHWC24 #HoppSchwiiz #hockey #Eishockey
@hannu_ikonen FIN kind of need at least a point here since they probably need four points in their last two games to make the quarters, assuming AUT beats GBR in regulation. (Maybe that's incentive for them to keep it 0-0 into OT?) #IIHFWorlds #IHWC24 #hockey
@hannu_ikonen oh crap, does that mean he's suspended for the Finland game as well? Or was it just a game misconduct? ESPN+ is showing SVK-LAT, and last time I checked they were having technical difficulties. #IIHFWorlds #IHWC24 #SUICAN
#GERLAT This is where the standings don't show everything. If GER (up 7-1 after 2) can avoid "pulling a Canada", they'll have 6 pts in 4 games. But that includes losses to USA & SWE; LAT will have 7 pts, but that includes OTW vs POL & FRA. #SVKLAT will probably determine who makes the QF. #IIHFWorlds #IHWC24 #hockey
@hannu_ikonen holy crap, up 6-1 after two and they gave up 5 goals in the third? Makes me even more relieved Switzerland escaped with all 3 points against Austria. #IIHFWorlds #IHWC24 #CANAUT #hockey
@hannu_ikonen yikes! I was excited to see Switzerland had grabbed a couple of points from Czechia but I hope it wasn't a Pyrric victory. #SUICZE #IIHFWorlds #IHWC24 #hockey #Eishockey
Before the bonus feed of #SVKUSA cut off in the postgame, they were recapping the chippy play instigated by #SVK. They also instigated a scuffle at the end of #SVKGER on Friday (10 min misconduct for Keleman). Is this a trend? #IIHFWorlds #IHWC24 #hockey
@hannu_ikonen caught the tail end on ESPN+ because FIN-NOR was over. Sounds like the US was lucky to get a point out of that one. #IIHFWorlds #IHWC24 #hockey #SVKUSA
@lukaso666 The balance of groups is funny with RUS out of the picture. Group A has three of the five powerhouses, but Group B has three of the four in the next tier (GER, SVK and LAT). So the GER win over SVK was really important for the quarterfinals. #IIHFWorlds #hockey #IHWC24
@hannu_ikonen one side effect of ESPN+ picking up the TSN feed of the #IIHFWorlds #IHWC24 is that I get to see a bunch of Canadian ads. Suddenly I have the urge to eat at Swiss Chalet.
