GDT: Canada vs Suomi @3pm PT/ 6pm ET/ 1am EEST

[Papitao]

Canada is today clearly the better team. Hope for a better third from Fin at least.

 

[Alberta tough]

Goaltending is the only thing keeping the Finns from not being blown out.

 

[Ezekial]

Finland goalie doing everything he can, Canada just outclassing Finland rn.

 

[ijuka]

Game was over the moment Canada's first shot on goal went in.

 

[bl02]

Man Cuylle is a handful

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

I think Zellweger is going to look good on Anaheim's PP.

 

[ORRFForever]

Finland is not going to win a medal this year.

I find that hard to believe.

 

[BusQuets]

Canada much hungrier now. It seems the 4th goal broke team Finland's back.

Although it wouldn't be the 1st time Finland comes back from 4-1 against Canada. Team Finland just needs to find their mojo.

 

[teravaineSAROS]

Finland fans all scapegoating the goalie lol. They can’t accept that Canada is better in every way.

You're allowed to have a superiority complex but we're not frustrated about Canada leading. We don't deserve to lead the game but we've been frustrated by the goaltending all tournament.

Us complaining isn't meant to antagonise Canadians or make excuses.

I'm only here to fight other Finns now that the Russians aren't allowed to compete.

Well it's mostly that they willingly leave Blomqvist out of the tournament.

If Finland had no choice and this was the best goalie available, then I imagine the complaints wouldn't be as loud.

 

[Oilslick941611]

Yeah absolutely.

The reason there's so much goalie discussion is because there has been some controversial goalie decisions from fan standpoint

He isn't even really playing that bad, Hes stopped some pretty difficult shots and 2 breakaways

 

[DoingItCoolKiwi]

Lol what a stupid penalty

 

[gritdash60]

Cormier looks good, i like how he skates with his head up with the puck.

 

[ijuka]

He isn't even really playing that bad, Hes stopped some pretty difficult shots and 2 breakaways

True, but he only started playing well after the game already was over.

 

[jj cale]

What am I missing about Desnoyers game that made him one of the picks for this team?

 

[DoingItCoolKiwi]

He isn't even really playing that bad, Hes stopped some pretty difficult shots and 2 breakaways

He has improved in the second but started with 4g in 12 shots

 

[ORRFForever]

Not sure where you put Bedard on the PP but NOT there.

 

[kendoman]

Meriläinen mvp

 

[Oilslick941611]

well, the game isn't over in the first period. The goals were all his fault. Finland gave up really opportunities

 

[Hamilton Bulldogs]

mvp mvp mvp

 

[JellyRamp]

One more goal to Canada and I'm turning off the tv.

we'll be seeing ya

 

[Rygu]

Not sure where you put Bedard on the PP but NOT there.

You do that to garner the attention of the Finnish PK to open it up for McTavish to score.

 

[jj cale]

McT just let's one rip.

 

[HabSgt]

McTavish is on a mission 5-1

 

[ijuka]

You do to garner the attention of the Finnish PK to open it up for McTavish to score.

Nah. Bedard would be much more useful at the left circle.

In the middle you place a guy who doesn't have a strong wrister, but who has a solid one timer and snap shot release.

Yes I get Bedard can do that too but the wrister's wasted.
