GDT: Canada v Finland (Gold Medal Game)

[Czechboy]

I've become real comfortable with Power out there, that kid is real composed most times.

Who does he remind you of?

If he becomes another tippy top D then Canada is going to have a D controversy in a few years with the new guard and old guard.

However this OT goes i want to say that this has been a good game, few bad calls maybe but that u see in pretty much all games regardless, been a hell of a game boys.

 

[Wasted Talent]

Just NO shootout.

There literally is no shootout, they removed it from gold medal games a couple of years ago.

 

[MMANumminen]

3 on 3 until it ends

 

[snipes]

What's with the constant bickering from everyone about players who are missing from their team? You can tune in for the Olympics if this doesn't please you. It's always been this way.

So your argument is "we would've won but our team wasn't good enough". I mean... yeah, that does make sense.

Exactly.

It’s still really good hockey even if it’s not best-on-best.

 

[Erikfromfin]

I think both teams lost, they should just award silvers to them

 

[Zub]

Just NO shootout.

There wont be one this Gold game from what i understand.

 

[Angry Little Elf]

Overtime favours Canada I think

 

[OskarOskarius]

Lundell should play, who else?

 

[DaJackal]

Welp. I'm giving us a 10% chance 3 on 3. Hopefully we don't see Anttila or Pokka on ice.

It is still better than a shootout, though.

 

[MMANumminen]

Should favor the Finns with better stamina and stronger skating

First time? Everytime Canada doesn't obliterate their opponents, their casual hockey fans come in with the smoothest brain takes.

 

[jonlin]

3on3 now. I`d have Canada as 90% favourite. Hockey should be decided 5on5 until someone scores. Just my opinion.

 

[Czechboy]

3 on 3 OT till it's over... interesting.

I've said before that I'd prefer the Gold game (with no one on after) should just go till it's over.

I'm not sure who 3 on 3 suits to be honest in this case.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Lundell should play, who else?

Anttila.

My palms are sweating and i feel like puking pls win

Mom's spaghetti?

 

[1989]

Hintz is actually over PPG and played injured all season

Yeah, I'm aware. It's also his first season doing so. To call him a star after only three seasons of play is jumping the gun... or was Jonathan Cheechoo a star too?

 

[robertocarlos]

Sorry but 3 on 3 is just as much a gimmick as a shoot-out.

Weird how all the insults are coming from suomi fans.

Says alot.

 

[habsrule4eva3089]

Does anyone know what the rule is for the Beijing Olympics?

I believe Gold Medal game will be 4 on 4 but can't find the link.

3 on 3 is not Hockey, it's for nhl American fans who expect cheap entertainment.

 

[AB13]

Connor Brown the player of the game by far. Simply dominant in all zones in every aspect.

 

[heksagon]

Anttila OT goal coming up

 

[jonlin]

Still, pretty good and exciting game. No shame if we loose this game.

 

[Finnswiss]

So how are the OT rules again in the final game? They play until the first team scores?

 

[Peiskos]

Should be 5 vs 5 continuous OT like NHL.
