Five days down and we’ve got a light schedule from today. No Red Wings prospects in action for this one.
Denmark vs. Switzerland
Featuring: Chocolate!
The Danes won a shootout over Switzerland for a 4-3 decision. After hanging tough through two losses, I think a lot of folks are proud of the Danes for getting this win. I’m ok with it too because I don’t like any Swiss NHLers right now.
Germany vs. Slovakia
Featuring: BMWs and Tomas Tatar’s Range Rover
The Slovaks ran over Germany 5-2 on the strength of a hat trick by Martin Reway, the fourth round pick of the Canadiens in 2013. Germany got both of their goals off the stick of Frederik “Stop it, that” Tiffels.
