There is the puck robbery and feed in to the slot for a chance for Barkov. As well as some moments with McDavid and Perry. And the breakaway chance. Missing the one timer and cross slot feed to Jokinen for one timer and 99% of the physical battles, of course, as a short video.
 
Laine was way better than McDavid in this game IMO. I'm not suggesting him being better player. Just outplayed McDavid in this game. I think Laine was most dangerous player on ice today for both teams.
 
I've seen it, I've seen Perrys reaction too. It was a **** play and there is a possibility that it was on purpose. It looks bad for Perry. Just not sure if that was his intention. Maybe because I don't think of Perry as a player who would do that. I might be naive in that regard.

EDIT: yeah, you're right. Perry could have easily avoided it. He chose to do it. But I don't think it was meant to injure, just to hurt. Which of course deserves a suspension too.

what the hell does that mean?!
 
Horrible play by perry. Whats the potential penalty? Can he get suspended? Will it roll over to season or world cup?

No excuse

Kivistö goal (not a scoring chance, just a horrible goalie mistake)

This is not biased or anything, I have done this data for years and suddenly Laine just always comes strongest on the stat sheet and beats earlier comparables. He is a BEAST.

Weird game. Canada was better at puck possession, but Finland got lucky goals thanks to Talbot's horrible goaltending. Finland had 6 scoring attempts in-a-row from 26minutes to 42mins and scored 4 goals of them. This kind of puck luck hasn't happen ever on my game "eye-test" data.

More realistic result would have been 3-2 or something.

Are these your own stats?

What does "Quality chance extra" mean?

Like, there's scoring attempts and scoring chances. Scoring chance has a higher probability become a goal.

If a player had a scoring chance or created scoring chance, it was "double" as valuable as an attempt on my scale.

So Laine had 8 good offensive plays in total. 5 were attempts, 3 were chances. He gets a double score like Perry of his 3 chances.
 
I don't know if that was on purpose, it could have been an accident by Perry.

But, and this is a HUGE but.....he was obviously targeted, by Canada, the best hockey nation in the world was actually paying a lot of attention to shut Laine down (and they didn't, he was the best player on the ice today). That should give you some indication how much respect they already have for his skills.

I had my doubts as one has with any junior going against the elite of the world. I do not have those doubts anymore, at all. I thought his (and Aho's) skating and maturity would result in a couple of bad turnovers and goals. I was very very wrong. Today he outplayed a couple of superstars. It's ridiculously impressive. And have to say, Aho also played a much better, safer game than the previous ones. What a steal by Carolina.

Well he definitely didn't play against Canada's elite and many of Canada's superstars have to prove themselves yet, but he did play a great game against them.
 
What heck was that neutral zone skate move at 0:32... just amazing. :amazed:

At full speed, he lifted his right leg, taking the puck from underneath with his stick into full control.

I wonder how many players would have come up with that.

At 0:24 the acceleration from almost a full stop into a breakaway is pretty good for such a slow player who has no acceleration. I'd say he started at a slower speed than Morgan Rielly and only took 3 strides to lose him despite him taking 8.
