Is wjc actually becoming more popular in europe?

 

[c9gunner]

I guess it's what happens when your team gets way too cute with the power play opportunities.

 

[Raimo Sillanpää]

Finland's PP really has no play apart from passing to Tolvanen and hoping he shoots through the blocker?

Its the 2nd game, I think the plan is to get their star player going with the goal and hoping that confidence then brings many more goals?

What you think?

 

[jj cale]

It is real easy to counter Finlands powerplay, cover Tolvanen and you pretty much have it beat.

 

[Ranksu]

Last year Krag did this against Finland.

I personally prefer the games in Europe

 

[DDRhockey]

What you think?

Yes. It was poor attendence last year as well

 

[teravaineSAROS]

This games tells it all,...the score shows how well we do at these world juniors.
- it isnt just about the win

1-5 goals = not a chance in hell finishing in top 4
6-8 goals = the Canada game was just one bad game,
no worries, there's still a good chance
8-12 goals = Canada game?,what Canada game?. The Gold train is back on track

Double digit victory for our young lions.

What a load of bs

 

[ijuka]

How many shot attempts does Tolvanen have? Soon 20?

 

[Elias Pettersson]

Not too impressed with Tolvanen.

 

[Snippit]

Shots 31-4...

 

[Skip2myBordyloo]

This is like watching paint dry. Looks like AAA midget out there.

 

[Statsy]

Not too impressed with Tolvanen.

He's been the best player in this game by a freakin' mile.

 

[Finnswiss]

Can anyone tell me if the Danish goalie is so good or are the Finns just not able to score or are not able to create really good scoring chances?

 

[Blender]

Not too impressed with Tolvanen.

How so? He's been Finland's most dangerous players so far.

Shots 31-4...

It's pathetic really. Give Krog credit for playing great though.

 

[jonlin]

More posts than goals. We should just screen the goalie and start blasting...

 

[Saekk]

Just give the 4th line more minutes, best line at the moment.

 

[chauron]

Bad period by Finland so far

 

[Blender]

Can anyone tell me if the Danish goalie is so good or are the Finns just not able to score or are not able to create really good scoring chances?

Both. Krog is playing well, always playing the right angles and in position, taking up space, rebound control is fairly good, etc. Finland hasn't moved the puck well enough to open up shooting lanes for great chances though. They need to do a better job of pulling Krog out of position with how much possession they have had.

 

[ijuka]

What the heck has Juolevi been doing? Braindead plays.

 

[chauron]

Only since the early 80s

So this is worse than Kazakstan, Poland or South Korea? Even in the NHL, Toronto was relatively speaking much worse than Denmark U20 team today.

 

[izzy]

dang thats it

 

[Fogelhund]

That was a nice shot.
