Day 2 – Czech Women’s Summer Cup 2012

16 Aug 2012 | Tyler Bilton
 

The battles continue on Day 2 of the Czech Women's Summer Cup with Moscow Tornado being the talk of the tournament due to their dominating, physical style of play. Not only do they have a national team laden roster that is offensively intimidating, if their opponents manage to get by the five physically menacing players on the ice, they still have to find a way to get the puck past the Herculean sized Slovakian netminder, Zuzana Tomcikova.

 
 
 
 
It is not an exaggeration that every game played so far by Tornado has their opponents end so badly scrapped up that the ice resurfacing machine could do without entering Tornado's end.

Tornado outscored their opponents 12-0 today as they beat the Vienna Sabres 8-0 and Pantera Minsk 4-0.  Ekaterina Smolentseva had a hat trick and an assist while Galina Skiba and Elin Holmlov added in a goal and three assists against the Sabres. Tomcikova played the first two periods of each game with Tatiana Shchurina stepping in for the thirds.

In other action today Slavia Praha had two very hard fought wins against Minsk and Ufa.  The Netherlands continued to struggle as they lost to ESC Planegg 4-0.  Planegg's Julie Zorn had two goals and Andrea Lanzl helped with a goal and two assists.

The most exciting game of the night was the last one that had Planegg and the Vienna Sabres head to a shootout. Planegg got on the board early with a goal by Sophie Kratzer, but Vienna answered back in the third. Planegg had a chance right at the end of the third to win it, but Danielle Ward fired a shot that just kissed the post. In the shootout, the Sabres' Kayla Dubowski scored the lone goal and the victory.
