Finland Celebrations

[psycho_dad*]

Finns usually love their metal, but for some reasons these hockey related songs and performers are usually something else.

Not good stuff.

 

[QnebO]

At least the following ones:
-Poju
-Isäntä Meidän
-Vesa-Matti Loiri
-Sakari Kuosmanen
-Tuure Kilpeläinen (who?)

So one metal band (Isäntä meidän) and then other stuff.

I dont even know myself that one, so probably not foreigners. No international bands like children of bodom or nightwish or HIM or Sunrise Avenue or something like that there..

 

[Ciccarelli]

Wow Europeans really do care about the WC.

I really don't understand why though.

Becose it's the second best thing in hockey you can win, after Olympics?

 

[paradeofwolves]

btw they just talked about 15-20min before team coming. Not a hour.

Thanks. I quite like it. Really catchy. That chorus is going to be in my head all day.

I am looking forward to see in what state Pasi Nurminen is after that great disembarkation from the plane.

[Paatos]

A small step for man but a surprisingly big leap for Nurminenkind

Would put the Stanley Cup ahead also.

 

[Walzie]

****, I still cant believe this is true I dont know should I cry or smile or both, but I guess its just normal when you have to wait for so damn many years for this

 

[paradeofwolves]

Those people on the ledge of that building, wow. Great scenes from Finland.

 

[TheMuumio]

Would put the Stanley Cup ahead also.

Not for most people in Finland.

 

[Juzmo]

Not for most people in Finland.

Yeah, was just thinking about "as a hockey player".

Different things mean more to different people.

 

[QnebO]

Would put the Stanley Cup ahead also.

I bet many on HFboards would, but probably average finnish hockey fan puts Canada-Cup (SM-Liiga price) and all international events ahead of Stanley Cup.. And theres alot of those "average fans"

I voted...Granlund is losing it 40-60 atm.

I'm a huge Sportsnation and Michelle Beadle fan.

As someone said in Jatkoaika, there is no more Janne Niinimaa choosing metal artists.

One cool dude, even though maybe a bit of an odd choice.

I love that Finland is a hockey mad country and I'm really happy they won

I hate that I have to go to my campus to pick up some uni papers now. Ugh. Been delaying this since I saw the stream hoping I could see the players partying with the fans.

Enjoy your celebrations, all !
