And stupid penalties. Its strictly on the players. Most of thoose shouldnt be taken.

Agreed. It is what it is.

Best of luck to the Finn’s the remainder of the tournament. I’ll be cheering for Jarventie!

 

[Erikfromfin]

lol... welll Järventie got payback penalty atleast

 

[jonlin]

Look, it makes no difference, it's not like it affected the outcome whatsoever. It's just soft at this point of the game and not needed.

I wasnt aware of that there is a rule-change at some point in a hockey game? Can you provide a link?

 

[jj cale]

Well, they got the job done.

Offensively I think Finland matches up well with anybody here, but they need to get better with team defense all across the board.

 

[Blacephalon]

Hard to believe a guy like Jarventie who has been shit for years is doing so well.

He has not been shit for years lol. What a clown statement. Stop pretending like you’ve following him for the past few years lmao.

Some goaltending would be nice too.

 

[jonlin]

I really hate our passive PK. With a shitty goalie you cant let them shoot

lol, theres been no rule change, I just thought it was a soft call at that point of the game.

don't worry,it's not like I am not suggesting the win was not legitmate, I just thought it was a nothing call.

Hard to believe a guy like Jarventie who has been shit for years is doing so well.

He was only shit in the second half of 2020/21 and at the WJC.

Producing roughly 0.5 PPG in the Finnish Elite League as an 18YR old and in the AHL as a 19YR old is solid.

 

[jj cale]

Some goaltending would be nice too.

I think you are being harsh on him.

 

[hockey20000]

finland wins in the end but can't see them beating a canada or a usa in the semi finals.

I know he was mediocre in his draft year. He only had 33 points in the AHL last season. Nothing special.

Shit for years? He definitely hasn't been like that. Sure, he was awful in the last played U20 WJC. Seems to have clearly developed physically since last season. But he has had pretty good skills already quite long, just has been physically quite underdeveloped and has lacked a bit too much of intensity as well. At least now he seems to have developed a bit with the intensity as well. Still has ways to go with both physicality and intensity, but definitely he is on a good development path right now.

 

[vildurson]

I think you are being harsh on him.

True. But he kinda deserves it. Not the strongest tournament so far. He has time to remedy himself tho.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Roby Jarventie and Bennett Rossmy win their respective teams Player of the games

 

[Erikfromfin]

Bring on Canada and jj_cales troops! we will crush them

33 points in the AHL is not the offense of a scoring line forward in the NHL.

 

[Jukurit]

This was definitely a hockey game.

 

[ijuka]

Deserves it? Scoring 0.5 points in AHL at the age of 20 isn't shit.

33 points in the AHL is not the offense of a scoring line forward in the NHL.

Not now but who knows in 3 years.

 

[jonlin]

finland wins in the end but can't see them beating a canada or a usa in the semi finals.

Not with no team defence and a shitty goalie. Not to talk about our abysmal coach. Our PP and offense should be ok, but with nothing else working were bound for 4th

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Max Glotzl, Alex Blank and Florian Bugl are Germany’s players of the tournament.

All three have graduated after todays game.

 

[Ginger Papa]

Congratulations to Suomi

and hat tip to Germany, who made it close but fell short in the 3rd

 

[Golden_Jet]

Hard to believe a guy like Jarventie who has been shit for years is doing so well.

What, he just turned 20 during the tournament, as if you been watching him for years now.

 

[Hale The Villain]

33 points in the AHL is not the offense of a scoring line forward in the NHL.

It is when he's only 19YRs old, when most players his age are still in the CHL.

Our boys are out dining on raw hamburger with nails in them as we speak.
