Pretty soft defense from Finland in their own zone, losing the races to the puck and just letting guys go to the net, they need to dig in down there.

Thats not any surpirse for me and other Finns in here.
We have knew all the time we don't win USA if the game goes skating contest etc.

This is the consequnce of that we have played last 3 games against weaker teams
which aren't any-kind measuring sticks for our team and players.

IIHF should change tournament system exactly the same what it is womens worlds
there A group is stronger and B group weaker but does IIHF have any interest to do that.

USA so much faster and better than Finland. Lucky it's only 1-0.

Did you expect Finland's win?
I wouldn't be surprised at all if / when Rimpinen will have 40+ / 50+ saves after this game.
Damn we suck.

What joke that powerplay was 0 shots and 0 scoring chances.
USA has done their home works.

Wow, Finland is complete sh*t. When the first formation lets that easy 0-3 goal then it's GG's. Thin roster and without our best players being better than theirs, and in fact weak and worse? Then Finland is without chance.
 
Wow, Finland not even close. I bet the Czechs and Sweden are a lot better than us too after witnessing this.
My predictions before the tournament seem to be pretty correct so far. Sad enough.

I haven't had the time to follow the whole game but Kiviharju seems pretty trash in this game? With awful highlights in his own zone.

Helenius class.
 
Finnish D's split vision with the puck in their own zone is god awful. Like so bad it's not even funny. They just dump- or rather pass it to the opponent. How can they be so bad?
