GDT: Exhibition • Sep. 10 • SWE vs. FIN

[MardyBum]

How was he terrible? Two separate keep ins and distributed the puck to both wings.

His passes were awful.

 

[Rodzilla]

Any Sweden fans can tell me why Nyquist isn't playing ?

And wouldn't Zibanejad have been better than Backlund?

"Finland med sin bästa period i matchen" (Finland with their best period of the game)

IT'S ALSO THEIR ONLY PERIOD SO FAR

 

[MardyBum]

Swedish D is just too damn good.

 

[PG Canuck]

Man, if this is pre-tournament hockey I can't wait for the actual tournament games that really matter. The boards are constantly getting a workout. It's getting super physical now.

 

[Yarborough]

Swedish PP, let's see if they can score

 

[Divine]

Is Laine not getting much ice time or just invisible out there?

 

[Raimo Sillanpää]

Are these refs aware we are playing on NHL ice and NHL rules? 2nd hit that wasn't a penalty..

THis is why North American ice is better than International and Hybrid.

The game is way faster and way more physical.

I knew this tournament was going to be great, no one wants to lose a best on best.

 

[h2owned]

Wow, it is getting physical out there

 

[JJTT]

Terrible refs..

 

[DoubleGold]

Finland is really out of it at the moment.

 

[llwyd]

Hmm, don't seem like NHL rules to me, and of course, the Swedes fall like Argentinian soccer players...

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Dont understand how that is a penalty

 

[TheFinnishTrap]

Is Laine not getting much ice time or just invisible out there?

Hard to be visible on PK. (he doesn't play PK)

 

[Chimpradamus]

The intensity and tempo is certainly heating up. And then there's a penalty. Looked kind of weak to me.

 

[Rodzilla]

They say you hate them when you play them but love them when you play with them. I am sorry but I don't think I could ever like Leo Komarov, ever.

 

[BB88]

Is Laine not getting much ice time or just invisible out there?

4 pks for one period helps.

From what I've seen from him I like him more than last game, but very small sample size thanks to .....ng reffs.
Way to screw pre season/warmup games.

 

[Conspiracy Theorist]

Reminds me of Malmö 2014 these refs.

 

[X66]

Is Laine not getting much ice time or just invisible out there?

4 Penalties against Finland, so he's not seeing much ice.

In saying that, as a player he's not as noticeable 5v5, but it's still only pre-tourney, and he's young.

 

[Yarborough]

The Canuck line strikes

 

[PG Canuck]

I'm telling you guys, don't be surprised to see a huge year from Eriksson.

I've seen him plenty. He had two shots on that pp.Vatanen passed to his feet on the best chance so they didn't get a shot off

Sequence.

 

[Nordic*]

I admire the Finns. They always find a way to go 100% in the games, when the play on the national team.
