Belarus - Kazakhstan 7:1
• Belarus bids bye-bye to Kazakhstan
“If Belarus keeps playing this well, they sure won’t take other teams by surprise anymore. The men from Minsk have made it to the Qualifying Round for the second straight year. With a 7-1 rout of Kazakhstan Wednesday night at Riga Arena, Belarus wrapped up the second seed in Group C, behind Russia and ahead of Slovakia. Kazakhstan is doomed to the Relegation Round.”
We enjoyed the ice hockey game at Prague’s famous sport bar “Zlata Hvezda.”
There was a dozen of Belarusans watching the game, waving white-red-white national flags when Belarusians scored.
I’ve bumped into an old “virtual” acquaintance from Belarus. He used to blog at livejournal.com and several years ago sent me some .mpeg CD’s from Belarus as a present.
Unfortunately we could’t talk much because of the noise during the hockey game, but apparently he got too tired from Lukashenka’s Soviet reality and ran away to Czech Republic, now working hard: selling paintings during the day and programming at night (he’s an experienced software developer). He told me that he already got an asylum status and can travel anywhere around Europe without visas.

Tobias: a quick reminder. I understand that for you it was a national tragedy, but for us it’s pride. =)

Poor Tommy Salo, he will never forget that goal :) By the way, Mr. Ruslan Salei and Anaheim Mighty Ducks made it to the Western Conference Finals! Justfinished watching the game, and I have to tell you that Salei was very solid throughout the whole series…Cheers

Wolny, no reminders needed, I can assure you that no-one in Sweden has forgotten.
May 12th, 2006 at 9:43 pm
Wolny : you are a bit unreasonable. Sweden is an Olympic champion.
May 13th, 2006 at 12:47 am
Admin: who cares? We still won that one time. =)
May 13th, 2006 at 12:49 am
“Who cares?” was regarding Sweden being the Olympic champion. Btw, that makes Belarus the strongest team as we defeated them.

Well, it didn’t happen again yesterday.
May 13th, 2006 at 5:20 pm
Well, Sweden is a great hockey power. Congrats, Tobias.
P.S. If we could only cancel the first 15 minutes (which were disastrous for Mezin and Belarus’ defense), then Belarus could’ve posted a 1:0 win against Sweden. ;))

You’ll just have to try to be ready from the beginning the next time you get out on the ice to face us.
