GDT: Gold Medal Game - May 26 - Canada vs Finland

[BobClobber]

Elbowing my ass

Yep. Could have been 2 and 10 for a hit to the head or boarding.

 

[FinPanda]

Ugh not a good start

 

[TheBeastCoast]

Finland got the PP

That is really dumb lol Two guys jumped him and only one gets a penalty.

 

[BB88]

Why are they starting this powerplay?

 

[BullLund]

Finns look nervous and a bit unraveled out there.

Canada has the better players and they have Finland's strategies scouted (after the earlier loss). They're going to have to pull a miracle to even make a match out of this.

 

[Joey Moss]

Horrendous call.. Should be a Canada PP.

 

[Chainshot]

Dink move from Nurse.

 

[NyQuil]

With these officials anything is possible.

 

[karhukissa]

They're not exactly famous for their star power, are they?

How many 80+ point scorers you had in the NHL? Haha

 

[Chimpradamus]

Finland got the PP

I guess the refs don't want people elbowing their opponents in the head after the whistle.

How many 80+ points scorers you had in the NHL? Haha

What does that have to do with anything? Are you refuting Finland doesn't have much star power? Many individually skilled players you want to lift out? If we put it this way, do you think Finland would like to face any top team in a shootout?

 

[BB88]

Weird thing is pre-tournament we were talking about this being one of the worst Canadian teams to come to this in recent memory. 2 players at the most that make our top team.

When your team has zero NHL talent Canadas roster looks talented.

NHL, I agree. International hockey is soft as f*** so he’s got to reel it back

 

[Nexon]

Finland out of gas? Wouldn't be surprised. Sweden and Russia much harder path than swiss and czech.

What Swiss gave them at least the same kind of test as one of Sweden and Russia.

 

[The Drop]

I guess the refs don't want people elbowing their opponents in the head after the whistle.

I don’t disagree with the call.

 

[Svedu]

Of course, Nurse deserved to get 2+2 and he got that, good decision.

 

[NinjaKick]

MURRAY!!! good job Canada giving this guy a cushion... solid goalie

 

[NyQuil]

Solid kill.

 

[48g90a138pts]

Jari Kurri just going out buying hockey franchises like double doubles

 

[BB88]

Seriously, why are the hottest forwards on the ...ng bench?

 

[jj cale]

They look plenty talented against Russia.

This Canadian team is just better the the Russian squad that's all. Finland is taking on a different animal today, they need to regroup and start to play their game.

 

[TimeZone]

Finland getting away with A LOT of hooks.

 

[Raimo Sillanpää]

Finland getting away with A LOT of hooks.

Canada not exactly angels either..

 

[Nexon]

Horrendous call.. Should be a Canada PP.

It was Nurse who obviously provoked. He got what he deserved.

 

[The Drop]

Wow that tip by Pesonen

 

[The Cannon of Tesoma]

Rather high emotional tension out there.
