WJC: U18 WJC Quarterfinal Finland vs Sweden game thread.

[king89]

We look really f**k slow like it's almost funny

 

[jj cale]

At this point I just wanna see some f***in sisu from this Finnish team. Home crowd needs to get into it but they are not giving them anything to get into to. Playing your arch rival to boot..................step on the gas fellas.

 

[theslatcher]

Härenstam the difference so far but Pettersson & his line stepped it up in the final 5 minutes.

 

[Jukurit]

Finland has made so many risky unnecessary plays in their own zone in this tournament. It's horrible to watch. There's no defensive system.

There's no coaching also and a coach who's got brains.

Finnish coach needs to ream these guys out during intermission, half assed hockey from these guys.

He ( Kauppinen ) won't do that unfortunately because he's an brainless idiot.

Come on Finnish p***yes there's game going on.

 

[theslatcher]

Looks like Helenius fell by himself there haha

 

[Jussi]

Bluemountain definitely out.

Top tier power kill.

 

[Svedu]

Wow, Finland look so shit. I don't believe we will even score in this game by now.

 

[jj cale]

Absolutely nothing on this p.p. nothing at all.

 

[theslatcher]

Well, they did get a freebie from Öhrqvist so that's something I guess.

 

[Svedu]

Like are all Finns so slow and especially the forwards!? Teshome, Helenius and Saarelainen can somewhat skate but the others? Where is the f'cking URGENCY!? INTENSITY!? Vitt*, herätkää perkele! Vähä sisua saat*na.

And please, stop the nepotism. Koivu shouldn't play PP. I've seen more of a fourth liner like Teshome to warrant a spot there. And that hasn't even been much.

That's like spending a night at the bar and you come out saying ", well a girl looked in my direction once"

They can't skate as fast as the Swedes, the ability just isn't there. It's been an issue for some time in the junior system.

As we say in Finland, in some circles, "lasketaan saamiseksi".

Whoever wins this one gonna get crushed in the semis.

They can't skate like the Americans nor the Canadians though. So why settle. And I disagree. There are a couple who are decent or perhaps even good skaters amongst the forwards. Not even half of the roster passes the line imo.

 

[jj cale]

Yard sales contain more enthusiasm then what I am seeing here in this game.

 

[Jussi]

Hell hath frozen, Ruohonen scores!

 

[Svedu]

Hemming, Koivu and Kiviharju have been so underwhelming. Koivu has actually been bad if anything in this tournament.

 

[jj cale]

Well that will help.

 

[king89]

Let's gooooo

 

[Svedu]

Agreed.

 

[Jussi]

Hemming, Koivu and Kiviharju have been so underwhelming. Koivu has actually been bad if anything in this tournament.

I don't know what his true talent level is but it's perfectly understandable to struggle with the growth spurt he's been having the last year and a half.

 

[theslatcher]

Finns found some energy after that goal.

 

[Svedu]

Interesting reffing. What happened to Suoniemi before? Just saying...

I don't know what his true talent level is but it's perfectly understandable to struggle with the growth spurts he's been having the last year and a half.

Yeah, whatever. Then it's up to the coach to actually pick the best players or the most talented. He hasn't shown that so far no matter the excuse.
