GDT: Group A - May 17 - Finland vs Great Britain

[Barkkonen]

Weak shift from Kakko. Lost the puck in the neutral zone.

Yeah no doubt

 

[ijuka]

Wish Finland would play fast, offensive hockey vs these teams so it'd be more fun to watch but I guess not. Underdog hockey for the entire tournament.

 

[MoeTheHobo]

So GB has been the better team for 6 minutes, that's worth some bragging rights

 

[Barkkonen]

Our point shots are embarrasing to witness

 

[Stubu]

Kaapo be more selfish...

 

[FVM]

Bowns is such a goofy goaltender. Love it

 

[Periwinkle]

Why is Finland's idea of good PP Lehtonen and Kaski shooting the puck from the blue line in the approximate direction of the net? Sigh.

 

[ijuka]

Our point shots are embarrasing to witness

Kaski's been awful.

 

[SlapshotTheMovie]

Is it just me or are both teams really sloppy? Maybe its the ice conditions?

 

[Stubu]

I'm getting an ad overdose already

They have olympic gold finland doesn't so they have plenty of reasons.

 

[Bruce Granville]

There‘s a reason why Finland has lost all games against GB so far.

 

[Albatros]

68 years.

 

[KimmoV]

the ice has been pretty damn horrid for the entire tournament....
as for the boring play...it just seems that Finland has this "defence first" -theme for the tournament regardless of who the opponent is....

The true source of the Finnish hockey inferiority complex.

 

[Stubu]

Stop shooting from the blueline, it's not working with this crew

 

[KimmoV]

it's like watching whack-a-mole at a fair or something...

 

[Stubu]

And next PP tell Kaapo to not pass but just do it himself

 

[FinPanda]

We can shoot the puck. We just don't shoot it on goal, it always goes wide.

 

[Bruce Granville]

Passes in the NHL are faster.

 

[SlapshotTheMovie]

Its only been like 3 shots... granted they were all shots that should have been in if they were on net haha. Nothing like shooting wide on a cross crease with the goalie behind the pass.

 

[FVM]

Would be great to have a player capable of scoring, aside from Kakko...

 

[Periwinkle]

Mertsi flaming Lehtonen

Kakko's worst period in the games.

Big respect for the UK, they fight back all they can and actually have the better chances.

Uh, have you checked the shot counts. Pretty one-sided here.
