Default 2015 IIHF WJC Prelim Round Day 5: Battles to avoid relegation

Light schedule today with only 2 games, and none of the medal favorites are playing.

However, today's games will play a large role in determining who gets the last quarterfinal spots and who gets to play the relegation round.

If you only could watch one game today, it should be the Swiss vs the Danes. Fiala and Ehlers's skill should at least make it interesting.

If the Swiss and Slovaks win their respective games, they will guarantee themselves a spot in the quarterfinals.

TV Info:
All games will be live on TSN 1,2,3,4 and/or 5.

For Americans, most if not all games will be shown on NHL Network but some games may be tape delayed. Note the Canadian version of NHL network will not show any games.

Streaming Info:
All games should be available by stream using TSN Go. TSN Go requires a username and password from whatever service provider you pay to get TSN.

Also note that all USA games will be streamed on nhl.com for free, but that stream will be blocked to non-US ip addresses


Flames Prospects!
The only player the Flames have the rights to at this tournament is:
*** Russia Defenceman #7 Rushan Rafikov (7th round pick 2013) ***
Rafikov is 3rd in defenceman scoring behind CAN Madison Bowey and SWE Gustav Forsling

Reway is becoming a fan favourite in Montreal - being a Montreal pick and all. The kid can play for his size. Very talented and plays with some fire. I can't help but like the kid when I watch him play.

Go Danes! Currently tied 3-3 in the third. If they get this to overtime and the Czechs lose in regulation to Russia tomorrow, the Danes make the medal round and the Czechs face relegation.

That was a hell of a game. Very fun to watch two desperate teams fight it out.
