Going by play the period was really close but Canada out-skilled Finland a bit and got the powerplay. Still anyone's game.
 
We can talk about Blonqvist but coach decided to not take him. We should be happy with what we've got, he would've never got playing time anyway under this coach. Most teams are missing 3-5 of their best players and we are literally missing him from our best possible roster on this age group.
 
Wow that was horrific 1st period.
And now it's proved Pennanen is clueless coach.
No reactions being down 3-0 is it too late fire that idiot?
 
Well, all jawing aside Finland is very much in this game, Bobby Mac going over all the dirty details in Canadas game right now.
 
Bedard likely has the best wrist shot...in history. At age 17.

That was a laser beam. Unstoppable. On a bad angle, 1-on-1 wrister.
I honestly think this is the truth. I watched Sakic his entire career and nobody lost their mind about his shooting like they do with Bedard.

I told you guys ( over positive Finnish fans ) that we aren't gold medal contender,
I am more along the lines of being hopeful fan. Canada and USA are only teams who can overpower us with skill. Sweden is about equal or bit lower than us as a team. We need one good game against USA/Canada to have a shot for gold.
 
Canada is pretty lucky to have three goals from that period. Same defensive issues persist as well, terrible clearing the zone. Would be nice though if Finland was penalized for very blatantly interfering whenever the puck carrier goes behind the net.
