GDT: 2016 Gold Medal Game • Russia vs. Finland

[BlitzSnipe]

Finns are starting to look quite dangerous now.

 

[Jussi]

When it comes to shooting, Saarijärvi is no Vatanen.

 

[agent082]

Closer 2-0 than 1-1. Good result for Finland.

 

[Lonny Bohonos]

Finns are nervous in their own zone.

 

[LemurFromTheId]

You need shots on goal, not just fancy passing...

 

[DenisSamson3]

The Finns are going to have to keep the play away from the boards to win this one. Thats where their plays usually get broken up.

 

[FinPanda]

We can't score in the 1st period. Never.

And Mikkola sucks.

 

[MrFunnyWobbl]

Need more

LAINE ORDER!

 

[Roland of Gilead]

Those penalties killed finns play for some time, but damn that comeback! No goals but that continuous pressure.

 

[matzz]

Guys, havent heard Laine and Puljuarvis names so far. Are they playing?

They are but like against sweden, they are quiet...so far

 

[Alexander the Gr8]

Some Russians looked gassed at the end there, Finland's got to take advantage of that.

 

[VictorLustig]

If there's one team in this tournament that shouldn't whine about referees, it's Finland.

 

[Tulipunaruusu*]

Judging by the first period I don't see any reason why Russia would win this game.

 

[agent082]

Finns are nervous in their own zone.

They are just bad. Outside Sweden game it has been the same.

 

[BlitzSnipe]

I didn't like those last 5 minutes, it looked like a Finnish powerplay though the teams were at full strength. Our boys better get the hell out of their own zone. Gotta hand it to the Finns, great skaters, very fast and great puck handling.

 

[Saekki*]

LOL

 

[Quality Oil]

Very entertaining first period. The top Fin line could use to stop trying to make the perfect pass and get a few more pucks and bodies to the net.

The Russians are managing the game extremely well, very impressive team. I expect them to come out strong in the 2nd.

What? That is like our national hobby...

 

[LickTheEnvelope]

LOL

Shocking!

Did you look at the scoreboard?

[BlitzSnipe]

Shocking!

Some pretty weird fans there. I don't think the Russian players care at all .

 

[m4tt145]

Russia is looking very good, but Finland not short of opportunities.

Liking Dergachyov a lot.

Unless someone turns off the lights.

GG so far. Dergachyov is money.
