Team GB Ice Hockey are playing in the IIHF World Championship Division 1 Group A over the next few days and today beat Slovenia (who played in The 2018 Winter Olympics and are ranked 9 places above GB in the IIHF Rankings) 3-1
when they tied it up late in the 1st i thought theyd blown it but they managed to get back in front and hold the lead through great defence and goaltending
That 6- 1 defeat puts GB down in fifth place so let's hope they get back on track against Poland. I suspect Poland will keep it tight but like they said after the Slovenia game games with Poland, Hungary & Italy are winnable games for Team GB, But seeing how Italy started I reckon they will be just as hard as Kazakhstan and seeing how tight table is beginning to think 9 points might not be enough to qualify but looking more like 10 is needed to be sure.
Surprised to see Slovenia down at the bottom given their seeding/ranking (15th) I expect many expected them to be mid - table.
