GDT: Group B - May 10 - Finland (5) vs Slovenia (2)

[Finnswiss]

When by the way missed Finland the last time the quarterfinal? I think it's a long time ago.
This year it could happen if Finland doesn't win 3 times in regular time of the games against Slovenia, Norway, Canada and Switzerland.

Since the tournament format was adopted in 1992 - never.

Hmm...who are we playing tonight again, the Flint Tropics??

Those are some crazy jerseys.

I predict team Finland ekes out a 3-2 win

 

[Lempo]

Late making faces.

 

[Lempo]

Those are beautiful green apple jerseys. I want bubblegum now, do they still make green apple, it was my fave in the 90's.

edit: No, apparently. Google suggests green card to US.

Yep awful, most people don't like them around here.

For some reason someone decided that we need bright green there.

 

[BB88]

Does our defenseman always have to keep the puck for 10s before they can move it?

Is Aho's line playing 4th line minutes to start the game? feels like they have only gotten 2-3 shifts so far, or just invisible

4th line seems to be a lot on the ice, maybe Marjamaki is matching again

 

[Matti_A]

Booooooo-rriiiiingggg

 

[Hockeyisl1fe]

1. Jaakola out 2. Play Pillu as a winger 3. Marjamäki's head out of his ass = instantly more competitive. It's not rocket science.

 

[Gsus]

Booooooo-rriiiiingggg

Not anymore

 

[Hockeyisl1fe]

Haahahhahahahahaha wtf

 

[DoubleGold]

Any Marjamäki apologists still here?

 

[Belizarius]

Fun fact : Anze Kuralt plays in France

 

[BB88]

Any Marjamäki apologists still here?

I'll throw in the basic "it's just one game" comment, sadly we've had to hear that all year

Marjamaki has totally killed the creativity from our young players.
Just let them do their thing.

"It's about players, stop blaming the coach!!!" Well yeah... Slovenia's squad is Mestis level?

 

[edd1e]

How can we be this bad??? HOW IS THIS EVEN POSSIBLE!??!?!?! I don't get it, i really don't...

 

[Raimo Sillanpää]

Slovenia..
How is this possible? It's breaking the Standard Model of Physics..

 

[Hockeyisl1fe]

Can you believe it at home? The game is 1-0!!!

 

[Kaako Kappo]

It's actually really weird. I'm not used to this. We never lose to these countries like this and play this bad, no matter what kind of roster we have. Finland is not as bad as this last year suggests. Not even close.

This makes me feel better about the World Cup, because now i understand why it went the way it did..

 

[Lempo]

There should be a picture-in-picture Late-cam as the game progresses.

Down and in the middle, just like the Doom guy.

"It's about players, stop blaming the coach!!!" Well yeah... Slovenia's squad is Mestis level?

They have 4 established forwards from the KHL. Otherwise it's EBEL/France level.

 

[DoubleGold]

Boys, maybe it's for the better if NHL players won't be going to the Olympics. Imagion Marjamäki coaching the NT there. Dear lord...

 

[DeeQ]

I don't know whether to cry or laugh.
