GDT: Quarterfinal - May 23 - Finland vs Sweden

[jj cale]

A compelling game to say the least, still anyones to take.

 

[Jussi]

Goalies are allowed to save shots they can't be blamed on as well. Shocking, I know.

You could, of course, consider allowing 4 goals in 14 shots to be a great display of goaltending.

You really should watch the game. Because if you did, you'd not embarrass yourself by blaming the goalie for those.

 

[Stubu]

Well Mertaranta is just bad example as he let his bias dominate his commenting. Very annoying. But i think most of us (Finns) are smart enough to realize it is never about luck. Call it little brother - big brother jealousy, if you will

I agree about Mertaranta, but the envy is totally a thing of the past. Good riddance.

 

[ijuka]

Nice to see what happens when Kakko gets the puck for once.

 

[Finnswiss]

Except of the first minute Finns have all the game to run after a deficit. Sweden will finally win this game.

 

[BB88]

Kakko is so dangerous with the puck, and difficult to get off the puck.

 

[Stubu]

tripping is allowed

 

[Jussi]

Hence the logical choice would have been to have our best goalie be in the goal but I guess that's not so obvious to some, like the coaching staff. Olkinuora also has 2 assists, more than Marko Anttila with less than half the ice time.

Well based on performances, in this tournament, Lankinen had been our best. A shutout against relegated France is not measuring stick. If somebody really wants to bring the Liiga playoffs in to the discussion, his team was knocked out in the first round...

 

[mattihp]

Why don't swedish tripping result in penalties?

 

[GigaChad]

Refs..

 

[TheFinnishTrap]

How is that not a penalty on Tyrväinen? I swear Sweden has gotten away with like 10 penalty worthy trips, it's unbelievable.

 

[jonlin]

How the hell doesnt Sweden get any penalties in this game?

 

[Luolis]

Still no penalty for Sweden in this game

 

[ijuka]

Ugh Kakko please don't miss that

 

[Stubu]

damn kakko so close

 

[mattihp]

Kaski has finally woken up!

 

[jepjepjoo]

Sweden isn't going to get a penalty tonight...

 

[jj cale]

ooooh, Finland so damn close to tying it up there.

 

[King 88]

Why are refs even there? They could drinking at bar nothing would change.

 

[canswetoxic]

BENCH LOUI NOW !!!!!!!

 

[BB88]

They better damm double shift this line.

 

[koyvoo]

Lundqvist is a grandfather

 

[Prntscrn]

I just want this tournament to be over so we finally can see Grönborg go. Can't stand him absolutely worthless

 

[AB13]

Stop playing Erikssons line, play the top 2 for once Grönborg!!!!

 

[EK47]

The level of suck that is Loui Eriksson hard at work everybody.
