Refs love them some screen time

Good boost for their modeling careers.

 

[MNRube]

Finns buzzing. I like their forwards. Haltunnen looks dangerous every shift

 

[sadpanda]

Hemming back to sucking

 

[king89]

Lol nice dive there

 

[Svedu]

Unlucky Hemming. Cheap one imho.


2-1 Sweden in PP.

 

[kudla]

Wtf are the swedes doing lmfao

 

[LOFIN]

You cant control the puck if youve never touched it? lol?

Depends on interpretation, I guess. Kinda the same of can you hit someone who is receiving a pass but didn't yet touch it.

Like I said, I think they made the right call, but rules are not black and white in this.

 

[sadpanda]

ASP is playing? Wtf

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Unlukcy Hemming. Cheap one imho.


2-1 Sweden in PP.

Shouldn't have been a penalty. His stick was already there and the Swede fell over it.

 

[jj cale]

Sweden being Sweden in the money games.

Classic.

 

[novisor]

Knew something was up with Sweden and their blues. Why don’t they like wearing blue? Last year in 7 games they wore yellow all 7 times. This year they’ve worn blue twice, but still yellow 4/6 times thus far.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Tough play for Pelikka

 

[Gazewithin]

Half a game left, but this is really looking like a loss I've seen before right now.

 

[hockeyprospects9]

Sweden are losing, I’m very confident

A lot of flags with blue in them (and thus shirts with corresponding colour). Having yellowas your primary makes more sense as it doesn't clash as often. Blue with yellow crowns makes more sense than yellow with blue crowns, though.

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

That looked like a dive

 

[Svedu]

Sweden are losing, I’m very confident

Never.

 

[jj cale]

Swedish penalty, everything going according to form.

The uniqueness is part of it, but honestly I think our yellows look better as well.

 

[CanadienShark]

Let's go Finland!

 

[ManWithNoName]

Very undisciplined play by Sweden throughout the game. Thankfully the Finnish PP sucks.

 

[CanadienShark]

Finns buzzing. I like their forwards. Haltunnen looks dangerous every shift

His shot is already NHL calibre. Absolute rockets of a shot.

 

[Seedtype]

sheesh, very undisciplined.

 

[Fossy21]

It's a penalty, but the instant head turn towards the refs before even hitting the ice is a choice.

 

[Prntscrn]

Sweden and penalties in this f***ing tournament.. year after year
