I see officiating like I see players…

This game I think they're good.

They've been fine within the IIHF reffing framework, no issue at all with them today.

 

[Jukurit]

Yep.

Step 1: Set player up to fail
Step 2: Watch player struggle
Step 3: Bench player

Reminds me of Sam Bennett in Calgary

Lambert's struggles mostly have to do with himself.

 

[Ace]

I’m sure that his fourteenth coach in the last few years will be the one to put Lambert in position to be more than the great skating no hockey sense player he’s been in the last thirteen.

He’s the forward version of Ristolainen. All tools wasted on a player who plays like his only understanding of hockey was having it described to them by another person who has also never seen hockey.

At some point people will figure that out,

…

Actually that’s unfair…

Risto was a difference maker in a world juniors.

Kemell taking a wrist shot from the blueline instead of passing to literally anyone

 

[Zerotonine]

Lol litterally every other nationality is agreeing because this is factual what i told you, but ok pal i don't care

So Finland are just a team full of lady Byng Canidates????

 

[JJTT]

Crazy how much Räty has improved in just a year. His skating looks so much better

 

[Jussi]

Okay I get they're trying but TSN coverage really loves misidentifying Finnish players and their family connections, and also constantly typo player names. I mean, come on. Pressing control + C isn't that hard. Looking at family connections on eliteprospects isn't that hard.

I saw them spelling Simontaival Simontaivel.

 

[Zub]

Yeah that was a bad play.

 

[Jukurit]

Nice Liukas!

 

[gritdash60]

Liukas is very slippery.

 

[Zub]

Nice passing again, this is one of the best passing/skating Suomi team i've seen.

 

[rkatec68]

Nice Liukas!

Took him a bit to get going but he's starting to look fairly noticeable

 

[jj cale]

Bolo, wasn't he the bad guys dreaded henchman on "enter the dragon" ?

 

[Jukurit]

Big man takes a while to get going!

 

[Summer Rose]

Broken stick on the secondary assist is mildly amusing.

My daughter is harassing me now. And her friend. I guess no more hockey for me...

 

[Taswell]

I hope Liukas can become a future 3rd/4th liner to replace Clutterbuck and/or Martin

I remember Bolo Yeung from Bloodsport

The USA game is on at 10 p.m. my time and she has school tomorrow. I'm sending her to bed.

 

[Esko6]

I don't like it when a junior coach punishes players for mistakes, if indeed Lambert was benched.

 

[kudla]

Easy for the fake Simon Nemec

 

[Ginger Papa]

I hope Liukas can become a future 3rd/4th liner to replace Clutterbuck and/or Martin

Between him & Raty your Isles have a couple of gems coming out of the Suomi program

But is standing around with controller disconnected a "mistake"?

 

[Antiillafire]

I’ve liked Libor Nemec this tournament, way more than guys like Faith and Jedlicka

Raty has me VERY excited. Nice to hit on that kind of talent after trading our 1st rounder 3 years in a row.
