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

[Finnswiss]

The Finns lead 2-1 but still can't convince. If they play against Norway and Switzerland like that, they will lose both games, against Switzerland anyway.

 

[Neinri]

Our play is pure torture to watch. I will watch Germay.... at least real hockey is on in that game.

 

[Slapper]

Finland looks like your typical Tappara and Kärpät from Finnish league. Systematic and robotish which works in a long regular season but doesn't work in a short tournament. It takes like 20 games to get used to it for a team.

 

[Ippenator]

We've always looked like this under Marjamäki.

Exactly this. Every single game with him as coach has looked seriously lethargic, passive and slow. And it really doesn't matter what teams they play against, as it is always the same play still. I blame the coach 100% for why Finland has been so effin bad in every single game after Marjamäki became the coach. Seriously with seeing most of all the games with him as the coach, Marjamäki is already officially for me the clearly worst national team coach Finland has ever had. Abysmal coach for the national team really.

I hope that Finland drops to Division 1, the tournaments are held in more exotic locations and ticket prices are probably much lower.

Only if Russia is coming with us. Would miss ****ing with them on their home turf

That is a hard task to do... even for Marjamäki.

It's enough if they miss the quarterfinal. Marjamäki would be the first coach who doesn't reach it since this format is played.
I don't know if they keep Marjamäki as coach in this case.

 

[DoubleGold]

Oioioiiiiiiiii

 

[FVM]

****ING LOL

LMAO

 

[CPFC]

We're one step closer! This team is devoid of any life, period.

[Raimo Sillanpää]

Oh for ****s sakes..

 

[PlusMinusZero]

Säteri is awesome.

 

[Cuthalu]

I love that angry emote above Marjas face.

 

[Neinri]

Somebody outcoached himself.

 

[TheFinnishTrap]

This tournament has been pathetic. I think Marjamäki has to go, I don't see him being able to redeem himself.

 

[Hockeyisl1fe]

Anyone else cheering for Slovenia at this point? Can't simply cheer for Marjamäki's team... total anti-hockey.

 

[ViD]

This can just seal Belarus fate...

 

[Neinri]

Has a coach ever be fired during a match during WHC? Now would be the time.....

"It's just 1 game".

Interview with Marjamäki after the game: "Sometimes you just lose, can't help it. I think we played really well."

 

[BB88]

Finally Aho showed his skill, about time

 

[FVM]

Ok, you got my attention, Sebastian. That was beautiful.

 

[Lempo]

Lol, hockey not mentioned in Cmore sports superweekend ad.

They could play 100 games together and those slow-paced clutch-n-grab tactics would still not work against top international opponents. It's not the 90's anymore, speed rules modern hockey.
