  • You couldn’t write a better storybook ending to the 2024 ice hockey world championship than this...The gold medal game between Czechia and Switzerland was fast-paced, reminiscent of good old-fashioned pond hockey where anything could happen-and a lot did. Not too many goals were scored, though, because these were the two best defensive teams in the tournament. But there were things I had never seen before: a player jumping into the wrong bench, another blocking a shot with his groin, Gudas ran over two, a hit so hard it broke the glass, a dramatic finish, and so much more. I recap the Czechia vs Switzerland in this video, as well as provide updates on Anaheim Ducks players still in at the tournament, including Lukas Dostal, Radko Gudas, Olen Zellweger, and Isac Lundestrom in this video!
    0:00 - Dostal/ Gudas & Czechia vs. Switzerland (May 26th)
    3:40 - Zellweger & Canada vs. Lundestrom & Sweden (May 26th)
    4:45 - Well done, Czechia!

    World Championship is just on a whole another level for europeans compared to americans and their NHL (fans, not players). Same for european players, career peaks with IIHF (or olympic) medals for national teams, not NHL playoffs or Stanley.
    76% of all TVs in Czechia had the Semis on.
    82% of all TVs in Czechia had the Finals on.
    + 17,5k in the arena, 7k in the fanzone and unknown thousands in the Old Town Square
    Average NHL playoff has 2,62mil viewers, WORLDWIDE.
    Czechia alone (10,5mil pop) made it past 3mil viewers, DOMESTIC.

    "Imagine what he would do for the Stanley Cup" No he wouldn't do more. We Slovaks and Czechs care much more about world championship than NHL. And I'm pretty sure this applies to players too. I personally don't even know a single person who watches the NHL. But the World Championship is something else. It gives us this patriotic feeling that we are good at something and makes us proud. This doesn't apply only to Czechs and Slovaks but most of the EU nations too.

    A funny little thing: Our goalie s name "Dostál" is very similar to "Dostal" with the normal A (on the jersey it is spelled that way anyway) which literally means "He got a goal" (Or "Didnt save"), literally its just the thing that you say when a goalie doesnt catch the puck. Therefore the fans are nicknaming him "Ne-dostal" which is the neg version, meaning "He didnt let any goal" or something along that lines, again, the transaliton here is tricky.

It’s not a real international tournament if each country doesn’t send their best players. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Canada sent their farm team-their weakest team in ages-and was still the best team in A division, and finished 4th in the playoffs.

And like somebody else pointed out in another comment, "Dostal" (English spelling of his name) would literally mean something like "got" (e.g. "he got a goal", in the sense that he didn't catch the goal), which is why he's now being nicknamed to "Nedostal" ("didn't get [a goal]").

      There can unfortunately be only one winner, but team Switzerland played a great game. Very clean technical hockey, amazing to watch. I cheered for Switzerland in their match against Canada, I wanted all medals to stay in Europe and the gold one to stay in Prague :))

    • @Jefffrrry
      @Jefffrrry Před 29 dny +2

      The Swiss became a formidable team in the last 10-15 years and would absolutely deserve to win their 1st gold. As a Czech I would've rooted for them in the finals against any other team (don't tell the Slovaks).

    Kaše wouldn't risk his nuts for a Stanley Cup. A gold medal at the World Championship is bigger for everyone else in the world except for the US.

    I'm from Czech Republic and I was back in the day so into ice hockey. I was traveling across the country for all the matches, traveled across Europe for some matches and overall I loved the energy even if I traveled for 2 days, saw a match and right after that traveled back home for another 2 days via trains.
    At first I was doing it just because of the sports itself and being a fan, but at the end I was mainly traveling to meet new people, I always smuggled some Czech beers into the arenas so whoever talked with me at the show had the pleasure of tasting our golden brew

    V Čechách děkujeme za upřímné gratulace. Co je mrzuté, je to, že Kanaďané připravují svůj pohár na září, a nebudou tam ani Rusové, ani Češi. Takže tam nejlepší hokejisté světa prostě nebudou. Kanaďané tam pozvou sami sebe a Americany. Pak ještě vytvoří týmy a podminky, aby Kanadu nemohli jen tak porazit. A přitom chtějí vyhlásit, že nejlepší hokej na světě hráli vždy jen oni, a nikdy nikdo jiný. Jednostranné zájmy a politika do sportu nepatří. Pokud se to dělá, je to ke škodě těch, co to dělají, i samotného sportu.

    Dostal scoring the ENG would have been a better ending but close enough. This tournament has me hoping the Ducks can poach Necas from Carolina somehow. It's also crazy to me that it took until the bronze medal game for Zelly to get the ice time he deserved, terrible coach.

    I wonder if Toronto will acknowledge Dostal's existence now. He did deserve the MVP but I doubt he cares. He played like an elite level goalie and made his country proud! With players like him and all the young guns getting experience it will be just one to two more season and the Ducks will be back in the playoffs. The wait will be worth it!

Maybe they kind of want it the same way to win World Championship at home and winning a Stanley cup.
