GDT: Group B • Dec. 30 • Slovakia vs. Finland

[Johno]

Laaaineeeeee, boom booom!

 

[FinPanda]

No points for Puljujärvi. Sad.

 

[chauron]

Aho with fantastic faceoff. Laine scores.

Is it already 10th point for Aho too?

 

[crowi]

Terrible definitely isn't correct. Even Selänne had long streaks not just finding to net. While no one can be compared to him, it happens to even best. If he can create and get so many chances and still has that good shot as he has shown, there's not much to worry about being terrible.

What is the proper word then?
Like mentioned he really seems to be jma v.2 (AT THIS POINT).

 

[FinPanda]

Laine will score at some point.

This worked again.

 

[Novacane]

Aho with fantastic faceoff. Laine scores.

Is it already 10th point for Aho too?

8th I think. TSN had him with 4 coming into the game.

 

[Canadian Finn]

 

[Jussi]

Kapanen finally scores!

 

[QnebO]

What is the proper word then?
Like mentioned he really seems to be jma v.2 (AT THIS POINT).

What about goal scorer?

7th goal for us. And how could terrible ever have been the right word after playing game like this?

 

[King 88]

Kapanen what :O

 

[JJTT]

Lapanen!

 

[Minttu]

Terrible definitely isn't correct. Even Selänne had long streaks not just finding to net. While no one can be compared to him, it happens to even best. If he can create and get so many chances and still has that good shot as he has shown, there's not much to worry about being terrible.

I agree.

And he scores!

 

[Esko6]

There, finally Kapanen get one. He has been working hard and getting scoring changes on his own, just unlucky.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

8th I think. TSN had him with 4 coming into the game.

On the IIHF site, it only shows Aho with 1A this game (Laine's goal). Did he have another?

 

[tobu]

Yep all in.

You mean Finland's shots this period?

 

[King Weber]

PK might be the drizzling *****, but at least PP is working like a well oiled machine right now

 

[Matti_A]

Finally Kapanen get's to throw that monkey off his back.

 

[Periwinkle]

Happy for Kapanen I've been a harsh critic of his but these last two games he's played in a balanced way even if the offense has been lacking.

 

[perstakli]

Ok, this really seems to be working. Quick, let's start downplaying Rantanen so he'll score.

 

[crowi]

What about goal scorer?

6th goal for us. And how could terrible ever have been the right word after playing game like this?

Right. Good thing he just managed to luck out a goal there.

 

[WinTheRightGames]

I hope that got the monkey off his back. Moar goals!

 

[JJTT]

Poor Huska. Kept Slovaks on the game.

 

[BB88]

We have scored 15 goals in 3 games now. That's good. Defense is not so.

Dallas Stars

 

[Jussi]

On the IIHF site, it only shows Aho with 1A this game (Laine's goal). Did he have another?

No, he has 2+1 from this game.

 

[Matti_A]

But let's be honest, with this god awful PK, defensive lapses at times and a question mark in goal still, there's sadly not a snowball's chance Finland reaches the semis.
