Great work. Looking forward to how the team gets on next season.

Don't forget to vote this week !

This season, WCH is really tough. We're the weakest team in TS and don't have a lot of 20yo in the roster. Even if Damien Nelligan does great so far, goaltending is our weak spot.
But on the bright side, we managed to get 2 points against Croatia. It makes up for the first game where Finland took the lead in the last 2 minutes of the game and stole us at least one point.
Tonight's game may be the most important game if we want to avoid relegation round. We need a win ! Let's get it !

We lost against Portugal but won against Turkey ! That 2-0 win get us in the forth position and we have a shot to be a part of playoffs (and most of all, avaoid relegation round) !

Damien Nelligan is really outstanding ! He stoped 24 shots and got the second shutout of his international carrer. We definitly need him to keep the momentum alive !

Now we play against Austria, currently first of our group. The objectif is simple, go to the playoffs. And for that we need as much points as Portugal and Turkey tonight. We can hope that they lose their game, which would take the pressure off, or we can take control of the fate of our team and get a win !

Cheers !

Well, the outcome is definitly a dispointment. We were 2 points away for a playoff spot even with some weaknesses. This season, our team should be stronger and, if you still vote for me, I'm making getting back int top I division the only goal for this season. I know we have what we need to achieve this !

Cheers everyone and thank you all for the big work you do to train good players !

Wrong way to start the WCH...
The first period was perfect, 2 - 0, a lot of shots. Everything was going well. But then came the second period, 2 - 4 with one short handed goal. And I made some mistakes in the planned tactic so we couldn't recover from the last goal and lost 4 - 5.
Now we can't afford any mistake and we absolutly need to win the next game against Portugal.
