Finland-Sweden double header February 6th & 8th

[FinPanda]

Do these games count in the EHT standing?

Yes.

---

Salmela is really bad.. Engren can't save anything..

 

[QnebO]

Lots of missed passes and icings.

 

[EK47]

For once Globen does not look empty in an EHT game did they perhaps give a whole bunch of tickets away?

 

[QnebO]

Omg, how do they always end up having that Salmela in these NT groups. He is horrible hockey player on this level.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Markus Svensson injured!

 

[QnebO]

Aaltonen finds a way to get slow enough pass for salmela, he can hit the puck. Shot misses the net only two meters and puck goes in from Swedish player.

Salmela trying coast to coast it

I really hope Junland doea not get to play in the WHC

Too many defensive lapses and Engren having a bad day, that's it. Though I have to say, Engren has been pretty so-so in his earlier NT outings this season as well. Right now I'd say we should at the very least have an NHLer as starter, Koskinen as backup and Saros for reserve.

Luckily we should also have more quality in defense heading into the WHC.

Actually no tickets were given away free (in that case only to some youth teams, but I'm not sure), and tickets costed between €10 and €20 if I remember correctly.

Cool. Good decision to have cheap tickets. They have probably learned their lesson from the 2012 whc.

Well, there will be more double headers like this before the main event. But those are part of the camp season, so a lot may depend on who's in the playoffs of their respective leagues and who's not.
