Great win
I think we had the game for most of its duration. Sure, due to individual skill Czech were able to have offensive zone pressure but for the most part we had this in our pocket.
Awesome to see Jagr at 43 being at such a level, what a player. Shame he lost his cool to take a stupid penalty etc.
Game against Russia will be tough, Czech didn't seem like a good measuring stick.

In the end- sometimes teams just coast in the prelims and play their best when their back is on the line. Finland always plays well in these international tournaments when they are the underdog. I have seen it so many times over the years. That is why as a Canadian- i said it before the CAN-FIN game, that i was scared to face Rinne and the Finns and wanted Belarus. I think Finland can do it again, and beat the Russians like they did in Sochi.

Congratulations Finland, good luck to Finns and Czechs tommorow
Absolutely. Jagr was one of my favourite players since i was a young boy. I would love for him to get another Bronze medal. Go Finns and Czechs!

So Finland can be the first country to win WHC gold after losing first two games.
E: Also we win EHT, world juniors and we already have olympic bronze.

It means marketplace, here it refers to the main one in Helsinki where the previous golds have been celebrated.

When Finland won the world championship in 1995 and 2011, there was a public celebration in the market square of Helsinki. Because some people climbed to the roof of the presidential palace in 2011, the police won't allow the event to be held there this year.
Hey Finns, you guys should troll the Russians pre-game. It will be sweet watching the Russian players implode from "INJUSTICE". 
Btw, I don't remember a final game Finland-Russia in a WHC. Mostly the Finns faced Russia in WHC or Olympics tournaments already in quarterfinal or semi-final but not in a final game.
Is it the first time Finland plays in a final game against Russia in a WHC?
