GDT: Gold Medal Game - May 20 - Sweden vs Switzerland

[JustaFinnishGuy]

Finnish is really a weird language.

I just put
Easy Peasy Lemon Squeazy
into smaller sections
Helppoo kun heinänteko is a Finnish saying that sorta means the same thing.

 

[Hasa92]

Go Swiss!

 

[sepHF]

Huge missed call. Not sure how the goalie let that one get through though

Checking from behind and boarding in one hit, no call, Switzerland scores 2-1. Ok.

Atta boy Meier. Love seeing former Mooseheads do well

 

[Dueling Banjos]

TIMO!

That’s an NHL shot

Thought it was Phil the Thrill at 1st.

 

[JoVel]

Our lovely Finnish commentator's bias against Sweden is something beautiful.

I've never ever seen Switzerland played such a good hockey game as these first 15 minutes, impressive.

 

[Ippenator]

Nice embellising! It didnt even hit his face

Rinaldo esque from the swiss

I’m sensing some serious crying from someone, if the Swiss will manage to take this...

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Nilsson need to save that

 

[DDRhockey]

Canadian refs as usual cantvwin against them

The Swiss keeping it nice and simple, definitely the far better course for them.

And it`s working.

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

SUI are actually playing really, really well. I don't see the Finnish team forcing the Swedish team being hemmed in for that long. Our defense wasn't good enough to even get to challenge them though.
So enjoyable to see how SUI actually play with intensity

don't worry you said it's a free win so what can go wrong?

The NHL is absolutely full of trap and boring dump and chace constantly, to get past the constant trapping. I honestly hate the smaller ice surface. It’s a real pity that they play in the NHL with that idiotic small size rink. Of course I still watch the NHL because most of the best players in the world play there, but I still dont like what play style it makes many teams play. And also it’s much more luck based random pinball hockey, where players just shoot from wherever and hope for nice bounces for their team, because of the lack of time and space.

I think most agree the Finnish sized rink would be the best.

 

[jj cale]

Not good work by the Swiss there on that 3 on 1.

 

[DDRhockey]

f***ing bought refs as usual

Puis Suter, I haven't seen in NLA. Just saw he was a PPG. Saw him a ton in the OHL andand he was very much a possession player who was fantastic on faceoffs.

He has developed into a great player, always dangerous on attacks but plays a very solid game. I can't believe he is only 21 years old. Will suck to see him go from Zürich, but I'm sure it will happen rather soon.

Alps of flesh, with rushes.

So you think a player who posted 52 points in the NHL wouldn't help? Nino, Meier, and Fiala have all helped immensely. Andrighetto was no where close to that and he's Switzerland's highest scorer and he missed a game.

Puis Suter, I haven't seen in NLA. Just saw he was a PPG. Saw him a ton in the OHL andand he was very much a possession player who was fantastic on faceoffs.

Hischier is tired and was hot garbage during playoffs. Suter is apparently injured. I'd probably dress them over Baltisberger and Rod but they would hardly be game changers. A better defense would help though. No idea why the so called coaches sent Sutter home. With Weber and Sbisa not available he should have made the team.

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

They even have scouted that stance switch shot from Forsberg. That one isn't an easy one to defend against.
