[Willy Stylez]

Btw haven't watched Puljujärvi that much to be honest, does he use his body much? Physical?

 

[YMCMBYOLO]

This is a great game, best one of the tournament so far!

Not Lindros physical, but definitely more physical than the typical European.

 

[czechcanadian]

So, how is the game running so far? Is there one team better or do they play on the same level?

Finns are better. Czechs holding their own though and have created some Grade A scoring chances themselves. All 3 lines for them doing pretty ok

 

[Stats01]

Top 5 sure seems fantastic this year. Cant go wrong with anybody in that group.

Only one I'm sketchy about is Tkachuk, I'm not sure how good he is going to be once he faces NHL talent, doesn't have the highest ceiling IMO. Needs more help than other prospects. Really hoping for one of Matthews, Pulju, Laine.

Whats with mens team and this team.. sick and stomach disease.

Has they the same cook?

 

[Willy Stylez]

Not Lindros physical, but definitely more physical than the typical European.

Allright sounds good!

 

[czechcanadian]

I like the way we're playing. Sklenicka worries me, Vesely is great!

Yeah i agree. He's really struggling defensively. Scotka playing well too! He should switch with Sklenicka!!! Much better defensive player. Zboril very underwhelming

 

[Finnswiss]

It's the expected tough game for Finland. Can anybody tell me in which minute of the game they are now? The IIHF live ticker doesn't work properly, it seems.

 

[gwh]

So Finland down to 4 D and 1 forward playing D.

I wonder if siikonen plays both sides since he has never been a D?

 

[Canadian Finn]

19 minutes to go in the 2nd period.

 

[KurtSloan]

What a chance for Pasta!! and here it is....0:1

 

[Jussi]

Pulju!

 

[King Weber]

It will be the expected tough game for Finland. Can anybody tell me in which minute of the game they are now? The IIHF live ticker doesn't work properly, it seems.

2nd period just started.

 

[Canadian Finn]

the SUPERSTAR himself!!!!!

 

[Ajaton Azer]

Aho to Puljujärvi is a score!

 

[agent082]

Aho is amazing!

 

[spacemunky]

This kid's a beauty

 

[BruinsBtn]

Laine trying a toe drag in his own zone. They don't like that in the NHL.


What a turn of events.

 

[gwh]

Pulju scores, 2 more points to go in this game.

 

[Matti_A]

Poljarvi 1-0

 

[Lonny Bohonos]

Lol was just about to post how impressed I have been with Puljujarvis defense and then he scores. Again.

 

[Gabranth]

That Puljujärvi guy is pretty good

 

[IHaveNoCreativity]

That's a massive save at the other end, Pulajaarvi is unreal, been in love with him and Matthews since last year.

 

[Canadian Finn]

Huge play by Aho to get the puck over to Jesse...but simply put, Pulju is a finisher!

The Harvey Spector of hockey!
