[@nightmareflame101]

"Bob and Bobek" is actually a popular Czech children cartoon! It´s pretty old at this point (it came out in 1979) but these two fellas are still very popular and iconic for us!

[@Pfaltzgraf]

The Czech Republic, former Czechoslovakia, is a country with great hockey traditions. I recommend you to go and see their game. You’ll find great fans there.

[@donquijote4565]

Well because of this fact every single match of Czech Republic in Prague as well as matches of Slovakia in Ostrava is sold out. The hockey fans of host together with the whole hockey world may even beat IIHF World Championship attendance record

Imagine a moment this guy realize Czechia won the championship :D

[@Sakutora]

Sitting almost right behind Jukka Jalonen, Finland's coach who got us 3 world championship golds and one olympic gold. Our team this year has 4 current NHL players, Granlund, Puustinen, Puljujärvi and Määttä. The slashing towards Finland was straight to Puljujärvi's nuts

[@AdeleMoravcov]

I would recommend googling "Bob a Bobek" he is one of two bunny brothers and comes from a children's tv show from the Czechoslovakia :D good commentary video and glad you had fun in Czechia for the Championship

[@Pekka.Pekka.1296]

Bob&Bobek, I loved them when I was a kid! They were so funny, always having stupid ideas, getting into trouble, I was laughing so much watching them 😂❤

[@tuukka3580]

Your visa is about to expire in Finland. 🤣 Good game 🙏

[@shiroganesam]

Must have been conflicting emotions for Tappara defenseman Vittasmäki hearing Canada's goal song

[@janserak6480]

Its funny to hear your opinion on the beer, because i am from Czechia and when I saw it I was mad. 90 Czech Crowns for 0,4 l and its one of the worst beers in Czech Republic. I was even more pissed off, when i saw they had pilsner urqueell, one of the best beers in CZ in the fanzone for almost the same prize. I guess the prize seemed high to me because beer is cheaper than water in czechia 😅

[@honziq]

As a Czech living in France, I find it a fair price at 90CZK=3€60 at such high-profile events. If paid in crowns because the conversion secret tax is nasty. But I guess from a Canadian standard it looks like a bargain even then. In France the beer would be more expensive, but likely full half liters and stronger.

[@tomfu9909]

You know what, it is regulatory pricing. You don't need people to get drunk for cheap at such event.

[@rodier_ratafakus]

Well last IIHF in Slovakia and beer cost like 6 euros :D

[@Antsapantsa]

Slight correction: #13 Puljujärvi was drafted in 2016 by the Edmonton Oilers. He had a rough couple of years there, had a double hip surgery done, then played well in Oulu for a season and a half in 2019 and 2020 before going back to Edmonton. He never achieved his potential as a 4th overall pick though and was traded to Carolina in his third season back. He would only play 17 games there before undergoing his SECOND double hip surgery (literally unheard of in pro hockey) last summer and in February of this year he was signed by the Penguins. The man had to basically learn to walk again, if he can still make it in the NHL it would be a hell of a story and the way he is playing right now indicates it's more than possible. Additional fun fact: the player whose rights Carolina gave up in exchange for him, Patrik Puistola, is also on Team Finland this year. He still hasn't played a single game outside of Finland.

[@finnishculturalchannel]

The way Finland is playing, Finland and Canada in the final would be a miracle.

[@mikfri74]

As a Swede I sadly agree, think it would be so cool if Jukka could get that gold in his last championship! What a way to end. But yezzz, my Fin brothers need to step up a huge amount!!

[@hermanniaikkila2071]

jesse puljujärvi was drafted by edmonton oilers

[@sabasaba9790]

Yes. Currently plays for Penguins, but drafted by Oilers.

[@sidlake5954]

Czech vs Canada in O2 arena will be huge, hope you have a chance to make another cool vid fella.

Well… it won’t

[@quantumvideoscz2052]

The match we did play was amazing. And Canada gave us an asswhooping, let's be real. But then, disaster struck, the Swiss just barely beat them. So we had to do with Switzerland. And do with them, we did. 2:0, lol.

I regularly visit IIHF WC. Here in Europe the supporters of a team has an “ultra” group who drum and sing constantly creating a super atmosphere. And the friendship between supporters of opposite teams is fantastic. That’s why I fell in love with ice hockey.

Finland's penalty killing is still 100% in this tournament. That is damn amazing work, but sadly you don't win games by killing penalties. But you said on Canada power-play that "this is a huge chance for us", but no, against Finland it currently isn't. 😅

Like 4.5 euros for Staropramen is extremely expensive. I know the price is influenced by the tounament but we usualy buy beer like radegast or pilsner for 47 czk.

Canada's second goal was Sateri putting it into his own net, as you saw. I think that might have been the turning point for Canada at this tournament.

It was a great game of hockey this one! We lost, but I enjoyed the game so much. I was also thinking of you as i watched the game at home and how much you re enjoying it too, as you enjoy a good hockey! :D Now i just wish we gualify to the next round.... I'm glad Bob is a fat bunny, imagine how sad a skinny bunny Bob would look like.

[@FlyByWireYT47]

From what i have seen in the broadcast, this crowd was actually quite dead compared to other games, like Czechia vs Finland, or Latvia vs Poland from Ostrava group. Good hockey though. Good games.

[@BLVCKSCORP]

"And if Finland beats Sweden it'd be great" I'm crying.....

[@piraq]

Broo this beer is ultra expensive....but beer pilsen style in czech cost now 1.7-2.2euros max IPA 3euros

[@mraklol4186]

4,5 euros is DEFINITELY not a good price(ik its a stadium whatever) but in czechia you can get a 500ml beer for around 2,5 euros (great video btw)

[@tohtorisalvador]

The situation in Finland is quite interesting. A must win against Denmark and at least a point against Switzerland. Finland started the tournament strongly, until then Austria surprised with a 2-3 victory. Finland was in an almost similar situation exactly ten years ago, when the place in the quarterfinals was only decided in the last match against Kazakhstan.

[@MIROXJULLE]

Ok

[@josefharasek7487]

#13 Jesse puuljujarvi.. he was drafted really high and played for the edmonton oilers in recent years. I Absolutely loved him, but his play didnt cut it. Hip Injuries didn't help. They released him. The penguins gave him a chance this year and that didn't go well either. Hopefully he finds a permanent home in the NHL

Btw 4 euros for a beer is a huge scam but it's pretty understandable for such a huge event. You can find beer for like 0,4 euro in a supermarket

[@CzechMirco]

That beer price is a total ripoff, not to mention the disparity between the price in CZK and Euro (if the Euro price followed the CZK one, it should have been 3.8 Euro). A normal beer price is somewhere around 50-60 CZK in majority of restaurants (not Prague tourist traps) which is about 2.0-2.5 Euro. But I get it, all sport venues around the world do this during such major events and if this price is considered actually good by visitors' standards then all is good. Just a funny fact: the O2 arena has actually "beer plumbing" (i.e. beer pipe network) all over the building similar to a typical water plumbing, and thanks to that they are able to tap 30 000 beers in 15 seconds.
