Alright! Guess the Slovaks are good! Even if they’re sleepwalking through a game!

Game Notes

  • Slovakia got to where they are on the back of some crazy high-skill plays, and then let Adam Gajan in net figure out the rest. Switzerland hammered Slovakia in shots in just about every period, and thanks to some solid defense and some heroics on Gajan’s part, they look like the team Czechia was supposed to be; tenacious, offensively gifted, and riding high.
  • The Swiss are as advertised unfortunately. Get off a lot of shots.
