WC: GOLD: Finland vs Canada

[ijuka]

Refs really wanted to be heroes this game, and this time it luckily benefited Finland. Been on the wrong side of that so often, but this time it's luckily not Russia in the finals.

Mertaranta almost with a legendary jinx.

How does it feel to be such a sore excuse of a loser?

Good game, both were great, better won.

But again, better didn't win, even the call in overtime (was absolutely hooking) the Finnish player clearly dove. When the refa weren't directly impacting the game Canada controlled things. Congratulations on winning, but that was an extremely disappointing performance from the officials to so directly impact the final result

 

[karhukissa]

Big thanks to few Canadian fans for being good sports, this could've go either way. Amazing team.

For the rest of Canadians, you take this exhibition tournament too seriously.

That last call was correct you simply can't deny that, stupid by Chabot.

Back in my day Canada had legends like Steve Staios, Jamal Mayers, and Mathieu Garon playing at the Patrick Thoresen Senior Invitational

 

[expy]

f*** these refs. Don't deserve anything.

 

[FinPanda]

I know the refs made mistakes, but I'm obviously happy about the gold.

Thanks for the Canadian fans who aren't just salty but also can give some credit.

 

[Chainshot]

We all know the only thing Finland is better than Canada at is producing metal bands.
Oh well.

The metal in this case is gold?

 

[EK47]

The last bit is very unfortunate, Björninen dives but its still a penalty what does the IIHF rules say about this situation?

[King 88]

Refs tried their best save canada but nope in the end Finland wins

 

[MMANumminen]

THe refs actually got gold too

 

[Elias40]

Congratulations to Finland, enjoy it to the fullest, feel free to celebrate two or three days. I am glad that gold has remained in the north of Europe.

Now I want to see those crazy Finnish fan photos. Jukka Jalonen is something completely unreal.

Canada and the US referees have been helping for many years, so now they have experienced it from the other side. I'm not afraid, in the future a match will come when they will damage Finland again and help Canada.

I don’t normally pay any attention to this meaning less tournament, but since it’s a Sunday I figured I would check out this game….holy crap I now know why I don’t watch this C rate crap, is the reffing always this biased and terrible?

 

[Metroid]

The metal in this case is gold?

Metal as in music.

 

[ijuka]

best hockey nation?

Yeah, your B team beat canada's Z team.

Congrats.

You guys will go back to being irrelevant when its a best on best tourney when you're battling to not get relegated.

Pretty sure Finland will not be "battling to not get relegated" in best on best...?

 

[ZDH]

Thought so.

 

[STHLM]

Chabots stick was between his legs, how can you possibly argue that penalty?

 

[Jimmy71]

Refs tried to win for Canada but No luck this time

I'd love to know what game you watched lol

 

[Svedu]

I guess they needed Finland to win to help grow the game or some BS. Rigged tournament

I guess you are a sore loser with bad humor.

 

[David Suzuki]

embarrassing from tsn give it a break jesus

 

[sakux]

Someone said Canada had the better players?! What's that based on, number on NHL players?

Finland has atleast 2 defenders better than Canadas best. They have atleast 4 forwards better than Canadas best.

Sorry to inform you, but there are good players outside of the NHL.

 

[DeeQ]

Torille!

 

[Leafsdude7]

That last call was correct you simply can't deny that, stupid by Chabot.

Chabot got tripped by the guy after. That was BS...

 

[D0ctorCool]

You mean good game refs
The f in ref is for Finland
This is crap.

No, I mean good game Finland. It's not their fault the Refs were bad.
