GDT: Bronze Medal Game | Finland vs Russia | 1/5 @ 5PM ET | TSN/NHLN

[The Winter Soldier]

Sometimes I don't like that highsticking rule. It was a PIM, but that is hard to accept with 6 mins left in a 1 goal game.

Podkolzin 4 minutes again......facepalm.

Was very bad luck. But thank you Podz

As a Vancouver Canucks fan, I am super stoked about Podkolzin. Even though this guy probably won’t project as a big scorer, this is a heart and soul guy that will really help the team compete. He’s not Pettersson, but Horvat comes to mind.

Oilers fan that feels the same way above Holloway. Not gonna light the world on fire in scoring but these are guys that compete hard no matter what and always give it their all. Both will be fan favs no doubt.

 

[Daeni10]

That was really unlucky

 

[John Agar]

Yup, strike 1 probably.

Correct answer...

Give the man an Igor doll...

 

[violaswallet]

Poor Podkolzin: bad luck

 

[TheYardMachine]

Poor Pod!
He looks like the most motivated to win and he get a double minor at the worst possible time

 

[jepjepjoo]

I feel bad for the young russian...

 

[novisor]

Gotta feel for Podkolzin, he wants this Bronze.

 

[Odie Cleghorn]

Podkolzin 4 minutes again......facepalm.

I think where it was clearly an accident it should be 2 minutes.

 

[BlitzSnipe]

How's that a double minor???

 

[NJ DevLolz]

Podkolzin is so meh

 

[Antonglk]

So all good right? 4th place is good. Russia is fine. Is this correct? Well deserved defeat for all those mediocre patriots who are OK with 2nd and 3rd places.

So take it away for the last 10min and lets all stick the faces?

 

[Just doink]

I see a Russian player without a stick, and my first instinct is he must have given it to Askarov...

Canada goal where Askarov loses his stick once again and then dropping it when defender gives it back is instant classic.
Great goalie tho, i like his big boy mindset on the net too.

 

[AvatarAang]

i've never seen a more unintentional high stick

 

[780il]

And that’s probably game...

 

[Stive Morgan]

Podkolzin looks absolutely distraught, and I would be too

 

[Dexter Colt]

I’m Canadian you turkey.
“hoser country” come on man!?!?!?

Someone appears drunk in a Finland GDT, I think Finn. Not even gonna apologize for this profiling

Also, Canada leaves the possibility of being a Finn from Western Ontario. They even have a goddamn Suomi there.

[Mobiandi]

4 mins seems harsh

 

[Svedu]

What, Lambert is not injured!? Playing now.

 

[APVJ]

Wonder whether the Russians will put poison into Finnish players' bottles.

 

[DropTheGloves]

4 mins seems harsh

They tried just making them watch 2 minutes of Skip commercials but The Hague ruled that cruel and unusual punishment.
