GDT: USA vs. Finland, Group A, Dec 29 2024; 2:30 Eastern

[Oilslick941611]

I am not surprised. The rules were written by a 5 year old with absolutely no logic whatsoever.

if you think IIHF reffing is bad now...You should have seen it in the 90s and 00s

 

[Fantast100]

Isn't US better with a better troop?

According to the SC final 2022 Colorado won with a better troop.

 

[Svedu]

I have watched him many times in Rochester. He was always good for at least one bad goal every game.

Old news. He was the best individual for Buffalo last year.

 

[chauron]

UPL is an average goaltender at best in the NHL.

Better, he has huge potential

 

[WarriorofTime]

Kinda what I expected, people always overlook the whole rest day vs. played day before factor in the prelims, consider it my secret recipe.

 

[Svedu]

Better, he has huge potential

Not a single goalie in the league would be good good for the Sabres. They suck and their system and defending is probably the worst in the whole league. I mean 2/3 games of all their games makes me wonder if Powers even belongs in the NHL. One of the most overrated prospects ever. He's sloppy, nonchalant and can't even mark his guy.

Two full hours into this broadcast and the third period hasn't started yet.

Why is hockey always so behind schedule?

 

[ChicagoBullsFan]

What a hell has happend for team Finland?
Totally different team today what they were against Canada and Germany.

Rimpinen plays like 2006 U20 WJC's Tuukka Rask.
Some NHL GM who gets to draft Petteri Rimpinen next june will be very happy.

 

[Erikfromfin]

Fellas panic too much no hätä. Gold Medal is coming

 

[vildurson]

Been fun game for viewer so far. More speed than brains in this game. Lets see if we Finns can keep this up. Positively surprised so far. Our goalie keeping us in the game.

Finns not exactly matching skill wise against USA but strength and speed seem to match and that keeps us in the game so far.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

Perreault with another turnover. And more garbage from Buium.

 

[Deep Blue Metallic]

Great game. Finland has finally shown up.

What a feeble PP.

 

[MNRube]

Connelly is a turnover machine.

 

[MTU34]

Perreault with another turnover. And more garbage from Buium.

No shot at winning this thing without our best players performing and today they’ve ranged from quiet to outright bad. Still time to turn it around though. I wasn’t overly happy with Huston this time last year but he was great in the medal round

 

[MNRube]

Perreault with another turnover. And more garbage from Buium.

That was 100% not on Buium. He kept the puck in play then got a grenade dropped in his feet

Why is hockey always so behind schedule?

Must be something in the water in North America, because IIHF games in Europe start as scheduled as far as I remember.

 

[SanDogBrewin]

All tied up.

 

[SI90]

Ziemer!!! Yes. I f***ing love this line. They work their asses off.

Great pass by Stiga

 

[Deep Blue Metallic]

Sabres' future HoFer Ziemer ties it up.

 

[MNRube]

Huge. Stiga has a great motor

 

[Machinehead]

I like how the USA goal song is Freebird because they just chose a song with the word "free" in it.

That's the most American shit I ever heard.

 

[Deep Blue Metallic]

Perreault with another turnover. And more garbage from Buium.

He's way too casual way too often.

 

[MTU34]

Beautiful feed from Stiga. Great shift for that whole line

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Beautiful pass by Stiga.

 

[Seedtype]

Beautiful play
