GDT: Canada v Finland (Gold Medal Game)

[Urbanskog]

What a shame this can't end in the ever popular shootout.

3 on 3 overtime isn't much better.

 

[mattihp]

Björninen - Anttila
Kaski

Maybe?

Then Lundell - Ruotsalainen
Määttä

 

[jonlin]

Anttila OT goal coming up

I really hope we dont play Anttila 3on3. He is not the fastest guy out there.

 

[agent082]

That final was one of the worst if not the worst in last 50 years.

 

[crowi]

3 on 3 is a gimmick.

 

[Shocker]

Weird how all the insults are coming from suomi fans.

Says alot.

You're so delusional it's almost funny. Take a hike.

 

[NyQuil]

3 on 3 OT doesn't favour anyone.

It's a coin flip where someone always ends up looking bad.

 

[habsrule4eva3089]

3 on 3 is the worst thing to happen to Hockey.

I can't believe International Hockey has stooped so low to decide a Gold Medal game for a format meant for clowns.

 

[Jeff Babchuk]

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

*last team

 

[Czechboy]

Mom's spaghetti?

Outstanding!

 

[Tobias Kahun]

You're so delusional it's almost funny. Take a hike.

Keep throwing out insults if it makes you feel like a better person.

"Miles offside"

lmao.

 

[Zamuz]

please no Pokka or Sund

the most unreliable defensemen in hockey history

 

[1989]

3v3 is still hockey, but only barely and is part of the reason the "World Championships" are a bit of a farce. Better than a shootout? Sure. Good way to decide a medal-round hockey game? No.

Too much ice on international-sized ice for it to make sense.

 

[Zub]

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

Agreed, or 4 on 4, 3 on 3 is abit extreme concidering other teams may have a much bigger advantage like Canada has right now.

 

[king89]

Ruotsalainen must play.

 

[Zub]

That final was one of the worst if not the worst in last 50 years.

Strongly disagree.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

3on3 is garbage for a goldmedal game.

 

[TheFinnishTrap]

Wish they would stop with the gimmicks at least in the gold game, I want to see this decided 5-on-5.

 

[jj cale]

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.

People are saying Pronger but I dunno, I want to see what more he has in his game offensively, lot of development left with this kid. I do see some Pronger with his size and his composure, he never seems rushed at all.

 

[Zub]

please no Pokka or Sund

the most unreliable defensemen in hockey history

Kaski is just as bad if not worse.

 

[mattihp]

please no Pokka or Sund

the most unreliable defensemen in hockey history

Määttä
Kaski
Nousiainen
Are the ones I want to see most of

 

[BananaSquad]

Hoping Power gets the winner!

 

[kendoman]

Are you not entertained?!?

 

[Tmu84]

OMG, i now realized it is 3vs3 overtime. I can't help but to think that overwhelmingly favors the Canadians 5vs5 is pretty even . These silly IIHF rules ..

 

[member 305909]

3 vs 3 is fun but it is not real hockey.
