Olympics: GDT 13 feb Finland vs Sweden

[karhukissa]

Ville Nieminen said it well "Sweden is playing like modern NHL 4th line". Absolutely correct, they skate and fight 100% all the time.

It was a bad penalty, but when refs let the game slip out of their hands they can't change it.

You can't give weak calls only to 1 team, they need to even it out. Which is refs bad.

Well that was a poor call by the refs, so i think we can agree this game won't go down as the best officiated game of all time

But 1-3, I'll take it !

 

[mattihp]

The swedes who looked physically strong in the first are now being outmuscled.

Here, a bad call. Happy?

Even Aaltonen and Manninen are winning battles.

Winning a tournament by winning all games is not a better achievement than winning a tournament when you lose one game in the group-stage.

Or do you think it is?

You never seen a Swe - Fin before? Its all about momentum, and it always changes within theese games

Finland's problem pre-Jalonen was going lights out until the semis when they were gassed. I like gold medals.

I think not. Win the right games, exactly what Team Canada has always known. In the Finnish media they put way too much emphasis on the group stage for some reason...

I've watched them for thirty years, I know how it goes. But this thread is so quiet.

 

[mattihp]

Hellurei hellurei

 

[mattihp]

3-1 Sweden. For now.

 

[AB13]

whats the score?

3-1 Sweden. Fair reflection of the game as a whole.

 

[mattihp]

Close by Filppula!

Smart match strategy from Finland . Commit ugly penalties in the first periods then pressure the refs to "even out" the "penalties" in the third.
