They just confirmed this lineup. Komarov, who was supposed to play where Hartikainen does, was sidelined due to an undisclosed injury.
is this really confirmed line up vs USA? if so,were so screwed.
can't be. i think its old news,Komarov skated in the "morning skate".
Kontiola in first line with Aaltonen
.
Louhivaara???
Jasse Pesonen playing 4th line
.
these lines have zero chemistry,zero physicality
zero nothing.
my ones:
now when Komarov gets healthy, he should be first line with
Barkov and maybe with Hartikainen.
Pesonen should play with Immonen and Ruutu
(chemistry +++)
2nd line
Jokinen should play with Kemppainen and Donskoi
(JJJ) (oulu+oulu+oulu) (chemistry ++)
3rd line
Pihlström obviously in 4th,stamp Hytönen and him center
the 4th line and fill the rw spot with someone
and throw kontiola and aaltonen **** out
from the line up.
all those lines are carefully thought so they'd be balanced
to have a bit of everything in all lines, have speed
strength and physicality with scoring touch,with plenty
of chemistry.
What that other Jalonen has done
is just dumb ass combinations with zero serious thought,
i mean why the hell separate kemppainen and donskoi,
why not put together the line Pesonen-Immonen-Ruutu
line that has served us well,many times before.
