[NyQuil]

Ferraro mentioning about how the misconduct ends after the intermission.

“It’s “interesting”, I’ll call it that.”

 

[Melkor]

At least everyone got what they wanted. Russian fans wanted Canada, Canadians wanted Russia. Swedes and Finns wanted each other as they always do and they got it. Happy New Year!

 

[jepjepjoo]

Annunen sucks and team Finland blows

 

[Jee]

I want this to end 20-0

Actually I wanted Sweden. Just match up better IMO.

But Russia makes for more drama.

Game still going though.

 

[ijk]

Should not be no. Like tsn is saying the finns are now down 2 players for 1 penalty that isn't even a power play situation.

Wow.

Well, the game is over so it doesn’t really matter, but it’s weird to see clear cut misinterpretations on rules.

 

[Firsov99]

I was hoping for a tighter game. Oh, well.

 

[Duodenum]

Canada looking like a much better team now than in their first two games of the tourney.

 

[Cellee]

When was the last time Finland allowed 4 goals in a period?
When was the last time Finland allowed 4 even strength goals against in a game?

Just amazing from Canada. Good for them!

Agreed, definitely not something you expect playing Finland.

Kids be kids I guess

Yea fighting in this game would result in getting thrown out of the game and probably suspended for the gold medal game.

Then you should let him just shoot the puck late. Even I can hit guys in the face with stick and I can barely skate. It not like you are a tough guy if you can swing a stick.

[OKR]

How many lions are there in the finnish forests?

None, but we stole if from Swedish and they ain’t got lions either lol

 

[Czechboy]

Ah well, game is being settled by the play on the ice anyway.

Canada is making sure there is no mistake about that point.

For sure... I'm not saying otherwise. This has been impressive! Reminds me of that one pro on pro Olympics where it was Canada/Russia and Canada just came out gangbusters. I recall the Russian player after said it was like they were Gorilla's released from a cage.lmao

 

[FinPanda]

Annunen is trash.

 

[Arhidia]

What time is the russia vs canada gold medal game tomorrow?

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

I find it funny that Annunen is getting any heat on those goals 1-3, this is an unwinnable game for any goalie

 

[blindpass]

US beat Russia who beat Canada...sooo

... who beat the US.

 

[Throw More Waffles]

Agreed. Now that they fully laid out the mystery, it is easily the worst call of the tournament...so far. Plenty of time for the officials to outdo themselves.

Finland deserves better.

Imagine they were given the proper 4 pp minutes? Score once, momentum changes, 3-1 game. Score twice and it's anybody's game.

I just wish that whole insane chain of events didn't happen, because right now this 4-0 lead feels kind of dirty...

Yeah, Sweden would have probably been a walk in the park for you. But nevertheless the GMG promises to be good.

Finland deserves better.

Finland has given up 4 goals in 18 minutes and haven't even been playing the same sport as Canada today.

It really doesn't matter

Somewhere, an Austrlian is outraged!

 

[NyQuil]

What time is the russia vs canada gold medal game tomorrow?

Game’s not over yet.

 

[karhukissa]

Finnish fans pls don't cry on HF about the reffing postgame.

1 bad call had 0 effect on the finality of this game

It was terrible reffing. But it wouldn't have changed anything

 

[Buttermilk]

Wow a penalty!

They wouldn't have 4 minutes. If they call the slash they have to call 2 for unsportsmanlike
