GDT: Group B - May 13 - Germany vs Finland

[MMANumminen]

Ahooooooo i want to make babies with you!!

 

[FinPanda]

Finally. Huge goal.

 

[BB88]

German goalie got into our heads early on, guys stopped shooting and started being fancy.

All of TT/Aho/Granlund/Rantanen prefer passing over shooting.

 

[Johno]

Oh heck that was cringy to watch. Needs designated shooter but AHOOOOOOOO!!!!

 

[Lempo]

That scoreboard says 2-2.

That was an aho move he made on me there.

If only you had Laine to clap bombs

Whoever threw that paper YOUR MOM'S AHO

 

[Kaako Kappo]

They are smart boys, smart enough to realize that someone has to shoot.

 

[DoubleGold]

So we can't win the group if this goes to overtime?

 

[BB88]

They are smart boys, smart enough to realize that someone has to shoot.

Yes, and they have been shooting more than in the NHL but looking for pass is what they prefer.
They don't have that Laine/Tolvanen mentality.

If only you had Laine to clap bombs

Tolvanen moving forwards hopefully helps on that.

 

[TheFinnishTrap]

Doesn't change the argument, Finland has been the more active team by far.

As I said, it’s not impressive against a weaker opponent that’s clearly just doing everything to not give up anything. There is very little good in this game.

 

[FinPanda]

We can still win the group if we get a regulation win over USA. Huuge goal.

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

As I said, it’s not impressive against a weaker opponent that’s clearly just doing everything to not give up anything. There is very little good in this game.

But why is that same game used against the coach then?
There has been no real reason to shit on Marjamäki during this individual tournament.

With Aho and TT a Hyvönen type would suffice.

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

With Aho and TT a Hyvönen type would suffice.

Too bad Hannes did what was right and retired after winning championships as a clutch player for Kärpät

 

[DoubleGold]

Woooow, 3v3. Okay.

 

[DieSendungmitderMaus]

Too bad. Two minutes from beating Finland.

Btw as a German it's weird to watch these games knowing that the best player on the ice is ours. Draisaitl is such a game changer.

 

[myzteriouz]

I am kinda hoping we would end up 3rd, I'd much rather see us potentially play Russia in the QF than Czech/Swiss/Slovakia, we just seem to have Russia's number

 

[Zaar]

At least this was one of the better showings of Team Germany. They sticked to a (probably simple) plan and fought for it.

 

[DoubleGold]

I want to kill myself. Embarrasing.

 

[TheFinnishTrap]

But why is that same game used against the coach then?
There has been no real reason to **** on Marjamäki during this individual tournament.

I don’t know what’s wrong with this team. Two similar games where we give up a lead to weaker teams by playing lazy defense who then turtle up. 5 points lost against Denmark and Germany is terrible.

 

[Loffer]

Holy Shit

 

[BalticWarrior]

Welp. That happened.

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

Kapanen forgot that he has to defend

 

[Lempo]

Saku is not amused. Congrats, Germany.
