GET IN

Is there enough time for the Hat trick?

 

[Bruce Granville]

Who would you rather have in net, Sateri or Swiss cheese!

You can't blame the goalie for a deflection...

5min

I’m not sure Finland has actually had more high-quality scoring chances than their opponent in any of their games

 

[RobRayzor]

IIHF ‘bout to kick these refs off tourney too

Finns always play like this. No matter what opponent. They just bring that 5 men unit in the middle and stay there. If I were a fan of team Finland I would complain, even if this snore fest brings some results. This is anti-hockey, fair and simple.

 

[Namejs]

Feels good to be back in the game now. If we get 2 points, we can finish 3rd and get Slovakia in the QFs.

 

[FiLe]

So, Latvia secures at least a point, meaning they still have a QF spot in their own hands.

A part of me was actually pulling for this result - as now Latvia gets to play for a QF spot against Germany on Tuesday with fans on the stands. Gonna be great for them.

It isn‘t about deflections. He has all holes uncovered…and pulls back his head.

 

[Kibe]

LUNKKA!

 

[Jussi]

LUNDELL!

 

[GX]

entertaining OT for WC standards

 

[RobRayzor]

Latvia is the unluckiest team this tourney, they can’t get a break.

 

[mattihp]

What a break through. Imaging if Arttu was on his wing from the start!

Against teams like USA and Canada I understand it, but I haven’t seen Finland struggle like this against Kazakstan, Germany, Latvia and even Italy .

Finns always struggle when they are favorite to win. They can't initiate the play. Finns lose teams like France or Denmark all the time in worlds.

 

[Erikfromfin]

No Panic guys! Gold medal is coming!

 

[Namejs]

Yeah, I'll take the point.

Rooting for Norway now.

I can remember Finn's losing only once to France in my entire life and never have i seen that happen with Denmark, stop being so obvious lol.

 

[Porvari]

Nice, they're finally found a proper rendition of the Finland anthem and ditched the speedrun version.

They've lost to Denmark many times, the last time was during the Herning tournament in 2018. I should know, I was there.

Denmark beat Finland in 2018 IIRC. Also one time earlier, can't remember when.

Two times in total.
