Ukraine will play Slovenia for the gold and a promotion to the next level. It should be a great game of hockey, neither team has lost a match. Slovenia is my favorite.
Netherlands will play Spain for the bronze medal, again both teams posted similar scorelines in their round robin matches. Playing with better systems Netherlands is my favorite.
Belgium will play Australia for survival in the Division II. The winner stays, the loser drops to Division III. Again both teams have similar scorelines throughout the Round Robin, neither have won a game. GF/GA for Australia 33-4 and Belgium 38-3. Both have struggled offensively, with low shots on goal. But the big difference is the penalty minutes: Australia 32 minutes and Belgium 108. But, overall netminding has been stronger for the Belgians and they have the better hockey players.
So, it is very simple: stay out of the box, win the face-offs and shoot on goal. Belgium is my favorite.
I really want to hear the Belgian National Anthem!
Go Belgium!
Belgium is my favorite! Make sure we hear that anthem! Focus, hassle and SCORE!
And the favorite won! Great Feeling Belgium! Woow! Bravo!
