man i would not want to be Podkolzin right now.

They didn't lose because of him. No guarantee they score in those 4 minutes
He was one of the very few bright spots

 

[John Agar]

This years' Russian team...

Was lost in translation...

The past was layered on top of their future... reverse superposition ...

 

[Shocker]

I'm guessing they can't pick guys who have won the best player of the game before?

I know Petman scored the winner, but the best player in the game? Nah.

 

[agent082]

Canada was better than Finland and usa was so and so. I think this team was good and who knows what would have happened in the final.

 

[BusQuets]

30 year old Petman wins the player of the game.

He probably feels guilty af for that double minor though, despite it being a freak accident.

 

[Esko6]

Haha, captain giving the medals.

 

[The Vasili Jerry]

Will Larionov take a lot of heat for this or does he get a pass as a new coach?

 

[Inf4mous0ne]

I really like the idea of the captains helping to hand out the medals. Pretty cool.

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

Petman looks like the hockey version of 21 Jump Street.

No top 3 for Russia??

 

[jonlin]

I cant say I`m too pleased with this tourney. I`m content. Finland should have been in the finals, but Canada is hands down the best team in the tourney. No contest. I`m happy though that we beat both our biggest rivals - Sweden and Russia. Thanks to the youngsters for putting up a win here and medal!

 

[Dexter Colt]

Big congrats to Finns! A well-deserved bronze. They played a heck of a game ever since that pounding from Canada and were very close to being in the finals. It's been a joy watching this team and their resilience.

 

[Sens72]

Congrats Finland!

 

[Shocker]

Lundell handing out the medals is too funny.

I thought they already did there's after the semi final? Wasnt it Askarov, Pod and Amirov?

 

[TMLeafer]

Lundell looks so proud handing those medals hah

 

[Lambo]

Now the people can t say, that Finland can "only" win Gold-Medals. Bronze is possible too.

 

[TheBeastCoast]

I actually like having the captain handing out the medals rather then random IIHF suit.

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

Ah good point, I came to expect it after a team played its last game. My bad.

 

[Macbanan]

Yep, Finland was better all things considered. Congratulations to them.

 

[TMLeafer]

So many handshakes left hanging by this suit

 

[SoundAndFury]

Didnt think teams were happy with bronze

I can't get over this NA mentality. How long do you think they have to be sorry for themselves? They lost to a good team, life goes on. They had a task at hand today and they won, they are supposed to NOT celebrate? To some of those guys, this can be literally the biggest thing they win in their hockey careers.

 

[Esko6]

Ruutu has collected a pretty impressive medal collection as a player and staff member.

 

[GigaChad]

Askarov there smiling
