    56:26
    Marko Dano is called for slashing, and I think we can safely call this game a Czech victory at this point.
     
    43:13
    David Griger carries the puck through the neutral zone, Petr Sidlik tries to check him, down goes Griger holding his chin and a penalty coming to Sidlik for high-sticking. Sidlik doesn't like the call again, apparently thinking it's acting on the part of Griger, but nonetheless the Czech power play is over and we'll play 4-on-4.
     
    29:19
    The Slovaks are off the power play for the next 2 minutes as Peter Cehlarik is called for tripping in the attacking zone. 4-on-4 hockey.
     
    27:43
    It is a major for spearing and a game misconduct. Patrik Zdrahal will serve the penalty, and if the Slovaks have any aspirations of doing something in this game, now is their time.
     
    25:54
    Now Slovak captain Milan Kolena drills Dominik Volek face-first into the boards and is called for boarding. Czechs to the power play.
     
    15:44
    The Czechs are now down two men as Michal Plutnar is sent off for hooking. Two-man advantage for the Slovaks for 1:02 and you can guess which unit is coming out . . . they are so dangerous in this situation.
     
    14:46
    Czech captain Petr Sidlik with the stick check on Reway, Reway goes down and Sidlik is called for hooking. Sidlik looks incredulously at the ref -- so it's even, a bad call against each team so far. Slovaks to the power play.
     
    07:17
    A collision near the blueline bewtween Reway and Volek and Reway is singled out for a kneeing penalty -- odd call, but the Czechs to the power play nonetheless.
