WJC: U20 WJC Semifinal game thread Sweden vs Finland

[Statsy]

...eh, Finalnd's goalie could be in a coma right now and most wouldn't notice...

Yes, yes, I’m well aware how this game is going. Nevertheless, he’s been good when called upon.

If canada loses to either of these teams tomorrow, dave cameron needs to be launched into outer space.

Agree.

I can't imagine us losing but...

...those two times...at most...

Well, good news, one is on the way. It’s just too bad that he won’t be here by the third period. Monten’s contract ends with this tournament.

AFAIK Montén's contract ended in January but the dumbnuts extended him for this.

Sweden's hockey fed is run by literal baboons.

8 pm game tomorrow night for Canada. Can't wait.

...they hired Marc Bergevin & Michel Therrien??...

...they hired Marc Bergevin & Michel Therrien??...

Worse: they hired Montén, & Garpenlöv.

And after Garpenlöv's historically bad Worlds they had the gall to do an investigation and have the results be "we had too many NHLers lmao"

As a Vancouver fan, sure I‘m disappointed by Lekkerimaki, but Joni Jurmo has been great.

neither team is impressive both would have to play there game of the tournament to beat us for gold tomorrow by looks of it.

 

[Chainshot]

I'm hope my snoring isn't bothering anyone here.

I think both fans in attendance yelled that it should've been a hook there.

 

[TonsofPuppies]

Jesus, Sweden are the Leafs of international hockey in the knockout round.

 

[ORRFForever]

Sweden is going to find a way to win this - Finland has blown too many chances.

Agree.

 

[Statsy]

This third period has actually been pretty decent. ‘Bout time!

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Sweden wasting the best goalie in the tourny.

 

[Deep Blue Metallic]

Sweden does not deserve to win this game, but are 1 shot away from tying it up. Make it so.

Very entertaining game. I have no dog in this fight but am impressed with the level of play of both teams.

EDIT: Hmmm reading the comments, it seems I'm out to lunch on my opinion LOL

Don't insult Sweden like that.

This is a perfect example of an awful Hockey game.

One of the most boring games I've had the misfortune of watching

We've all seen games like this. A lesser team hangs around and hangs around and then...
