Dutch_Habs_Fan Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Normally we have descent Goalie's, mayvbe we can get in the A poule with this. Or national team will never get that for with normal hockey, unfortunate!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTH Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Netherlands in soccer? They're ranked 2nd in the world bewhind Brazil of course. They're a great team and fun to watch. No they never really got into hockey as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch_Habs_Fan Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 no i meant in hockey. In hockey our goalies are quite good! Our national team won't get up on the highest level. But i think it's quite good we stay easily on the second level. For a not-hockey nation! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BTH Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 I can't think of a Dutch goalie off the top of my head. At the moment they're not good off to make Group A. But maybe they'll eventually pass Belarus, Germany and China. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dutch_Habs_Fan Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 Germany got a real good league. Our league is nothing compared to that. We mostly play with Dutch-Canadiens in our national team. Maybe 50% or so. You gotta love the guys going back to their Families here . Some dutch heritage!!

Our national team won't get up on the highest level. But i think it's quite good we stay easily on the second level. For a not-hockey nation! Yep, Phil Groeneveld's a great goalie. He can win games single handedly. But their newest acquisition, amsterdams' Tomas Kalousek, who played for the netherlands during the latest four nations tournament in Latvia, yikes, he isn't any good! As for the other dutch goalies, I don't like what I saw from Van der Holst and Casper Swart. I haven't seen Peter Seton play yet. Den Hartog, Tillburgs goalie who played for the national team as wel isn't good either. The best goalie I've seen over the last couple of years in the netherlands has to be Phil Groeneveld, with Bjorn steijlen as a close second.

Just cuz it is never on TV (only the cupfinal) and it's not as much fun to watch. But it's getting better i believe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one caught up to anybody, they just skated around the rink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mathieu30 Posted February 12, 2006 Share Posted February 12, 2006 Yep, Phil Groeneveld's a great goalie. He can win games single handedly.

Just cuz it is never on TV (only the cupfinal) and it's not as much fun to watch. But it's getting better i believe Hey Dutchie, did you see the France-Netherlands game? The Dutch goalie, Groeneveld, scored a goal! On the PK Groeneveld cleared the puck. A french D picked up the puck and passed it through the crease. The puck went off a skate, and deflected through the legs of team France goalie Fabrice Lhenry. The game ended in a 4-4 tie. The Dutch ended this four nation tournament in 4th place (1.Norway, 2. France, 3. Lithuania, 4. Netherlands). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
