GDT: FIN vs. SUI May 21, 2024

[Finnswiss]

It's a pity there will never be a final game Finland-Switzerland that I wish so desperately.

 

[Raimo Sillanpää]

Larmi is quite a bit worse, but his highs are better.

At least Larmi has highs..

 

[swissdude]

so let's see if the PK has improved....

 

[FinnLightning26]

Granlund must have fun playing with two absolute scrubs.

 

[mattihp]

Granlund must have fun playing with two absolute scrubs.

The pagan isn't a scrub. It just seems he doesn't like to score or assist on goals.

 

[Finnswiss]

Granlund must have fun playing with two absolute scrubs.

Yeah, that's the problem for Granlund.

 

[Jussi]

Innala scored?!

 

[SwissFan12]

Our pk is horrible...

 

[swissdude]

we better avoid any penalties in the playoffs, that PK is worryingly bad

 

[Finnswiss]

Oh, 1-2 Innala. Let's see if the Finns can punish me for lies.

 

[FinPanda]

Innala scored.. what is this

 

[Kuljeskelen]

The pagan isn't a scrub. It just seems he doesn't like to score or assist on goals.

I was just about to comment how Innala feels very much like a scrub lately, trying too hard to be 2nd Granlund. Boom, goal while I was quoting.

 

[jj cale]

Nice goal.

 

[FinnLightning26]

The pagan isn't a scrub. It just seems he doesn't like to score or assist on goals.

That's because he isn't skilled enough to be a first line guy on a serious team.

 

[SwissFan12]

We are horrible at faceoff and horrible at PK

Those aren't good signs...

 

[Jukurit]

This Finnish team is so boring to watch. Offensive game is almost non-existent.

 

[Finnswiss]

I have somehow pitied Granlund. There is no linemate for him in the Finnish team, who can help him to play out his potential. He looks lost in this team. If there were more skilled linemates for him, he could show more of his potential. But it's the problem of this team this year. The Finns have no line that can put the opponent under pressure if they play against a stronger team than Great Britain or Norway. I didn't see the game against Canada, maybe this was an exception.

 

[SwissFan12]

We didn't take a 5 on 5 goal against Czechs, Canada and Finland (after 2 periods)

I think it's a great performance

But at the other end, we are so bad at PK and faceoff and so much carried by this so talented first line

I really don't know what to think about this team

I appreciate the strategy but so many great Finn's became available as the tournament progressed. However, ask me Friday if bringing in stars works.lol

you really want to avoid a game against the US it seems I understand that and i don't blame you for your aversion towards us

 

[OKR]

Kaski has been bad

Nothing against the Swiss at all. I just have a preference and it's not America.lol

We won gold in 2022 with Heiskanen and Lindell arriving at this point. it does work. Jalonen didn't want it this year for some reaosn.
