GDT: Quarterfinals - May 19 - Finland (5) vs Denmark (1)

[QnebO]

Nice with a 15:15 puck drop!

Most people in Denmark (and Finland?) are at work or on their way home from work.

Guess I will watch the next quarterfinal in which Denmark is involved... In 5-10 years time :/

You need to dive at work, at around 12:00 or so.

Dive -> see doctor -> get few days off -> only use one day or so, then it's not really a crime, if its just one day for good reason.

Surely you'll be back in time for the OT?

 

[JJTT]

Great, going to miss the first period.. Why are they playing it this early on week? Isn't it 5PM in Russia too?

 

[Maukkis]

I want to say that it's an easy win for us, but if I've learned something during my years of watching Team Finland, it's the fact that we can literally make ANY goalkeeper look like a Carey Price. It already happened once though, so I don't think it will happen again.

If you're referring to Adam Vay, he gave hard time to other teams as well. So let's not chalk it all up to our usual ineffectiveness with scoring.

This is what my love for Denmark has brought to me, the case of having to pick between the two. To be fair, I think I'd get more joy from seeing Denmark winning this, so I'll be rooting for the danes tomorrow. As long as Dahm son plays as well as he did in that Czech Republic game, I feel like there's a real chance for Denmark to take this home, even with numbers like 3-1.

Expecting an amazing game, regardless of the result!

 

[Ajaton Azer]

Our Finnish Lions have player very strong in the tournament this far, so I don't see any reason why Danish should stop the party.

 

[hirawl]

The set up for this game suits Finland so well. Denmark has nothing to lose and can only hope for a miracle. That means they are not just going to sit back and trap. It will be a real hockey game and in a real hockey game Finland has four lines and Denmark has one. 4-1 for the Finns.

 

[EverybodyLovesRay]

Because I cant watch the game I have a bad feeling about this. I hope they can make it without me 3-2 for the finns.

 

[Artorius Horus T]

This one is easy to predict; Patrik Laine, helmet (hat) trick.

Once a clutch,always a clutch,10 goals in the Sm-Liiga play-offs,
this is Patrik's time to shine.

Laine has been using gears 1-3,time to puth the 4th gear in,
then the 5th and finNish with the sixth in the finals vs Canada.

It's great for me in NA. Game starts at 6:15am, can watch the whole thing before going to work

 

[JA]

It's on at 6 AM over here.

Denmark is not that bad at all - quite a bit like Switzerland often is: disciplined, tactical, patient, fast in turnovers. Though this year's Denmark has a top line that Switzerland would have difficulties matching. I'm expecting a tight match but would think that our depth will tell in the end.

So you guys are still living in the yesterday.

Can't really wait but I'm confident on the W this time.. I hope the team doesn't underestimate. There is no "new chance" in this tournament.. you gotta win these right games.

 

[saintflannel]

Go Ehlers!

 

[edd1e]

Denmark has proven to be a hard competitor at times so this could turn out to be a thriller.
I'm going to say 4-2 for Finns..

 

[Eye of Ra]

Eazy win for Finland.

But if Denmark had their a-team, i think they could win.

 

[schmiedi]

Fin - Dän 3:2 n.V

0:1 01:34
0:2 03:15
Koskinen out Saros in
1:2 34:13 Laine
2:2 55:24 Aho
3:2 62:15 Rantanen

Not if Finland brought their A-team as well

Hehe...does this kind of fanboyism hurt?

I have to hand it to you. You are one true hockey fan. Getting up at 6 AM to watch Finland-Denmark.

Just like staying awake to watch Coyotes - Sabres...

 

[Selannne]

I'm a bit nervous. If Finland lose this one,then you can't watch tv,internet,facebook,newspaper or what ever in atleast 2 months.! I can already see those articles!

But I'll say 4-1 Finland!

 

[fredligh]

Yes, I am cocky. Sorry Danes I like you but you have zero chance. We haven't even reached our potential yet

Cocky? i would say you are like the average finn Maybe you are the same guy that wrote that this was your "C-team", right ? Give the finn some water on their mill and all of a sudden...

 

[Lempo]

Nonsense. We would laugh it off and be a part of a beautiful hockey story emerging. And obviously be cheering for the Danes in the semis and beyond because of the job well done. (unless they kneed Laine in the process then obviously not.)
