GDT: Group A - May 13 - USA vs Finland (Mod warning in post 2)

Huh

Kakko interfered with for 5 seconds and the Finn only gets a penalty ROFL

 

[Chainshot]

He has a decent shot, but man he uses it way too rarely

I was frustrated in the first couple of games when he was on Eichel's wing. Jack would work it up ice, gain the zone or win the puck and pass it to him. And then the stickhandling clinic would start and the puck would go the other way.

Kakko interfered with right in front and they called Tervainen for a stick lift

That was an odd non call lol

That was an odd non call lol

IIHF refs have never been grade A

 

[SoundAndFury]

Really hoping we had 2011 Vehanen in the goal right now.

Vehanen allowed 3 goals and was yanked in the final. Just saying. With the point being some games don't go well for good goalies. Veini can still very much salvage this game.

Did that even hit the face? Looked like it hit the stick

 

[Gsus]

I havent honestly seen Hughes in the whole game. I have watched most of it.

 

[king89]

Good penalty kill

 

[slikki]

Larkin diving....nice. stick not even near his face

 

[king89]

6 men on ice...no penalty

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

Not 6 on the ice for USA?

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Gaudreau was terrible on that PP, and Keller sucks every time i've watched him, always makes the wrong choice

 

[FinPanda]

What are these refs?

 

[AndyA]

7 men on ice

 

[jj cale]

Crowds not very into this one at all and this game could use a boost big time, action has been very lukewarm.

 

[mattihp]

Hughes plays alright but doesn't bring anything amazing. That he doesn't stick out at this age is amazing. Very solid hockey player.

 

[FinPanda]

Clear 6 men on ice

Sounds excactly how he played the whole last season. Why can't he just return to his rookie season form lol

In the 2nd replay of the "highstick", you could see that all Tyrväinen got was air.

Well, it is what it is, PK was really good.

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

Hughes flying from a routine check.. But damn he's fast though

Even on that 2-on-1... it was like he wanted to stickhandle it into the net. Eh. I don't know why these guys get into funks.

 

[king89]

Powerplay now!!

 

[Chainshot]

Veini has settled in nicely in the 2nd.
