And a bad, bad call against Karlsson puts Finland right back on the PP and not long after they take the lead.

 

[sr228]

That was a fun hockey game!! Both Rantanen & Kapanen had great games (finally) which isn't great news for who ever plays Finland in the Gold Medal game.

 

[Episkey]

Finland wins. Kind of surprised they were able to hang in a tight 2-1 defensive game. But they played great, and also benefited more from officiating. About time Rantanen and Kapanen take over a game offensively.

 

[Jwec]

I am so proud of our team!!! And I am repeating myself but we should've drafted Rantanen. He had awesome game and stepped up when our team needed him most! Swedes did good job shutting down Laine-Puljujärvi-Aho line.

Btw. Rantanen dropped F-bomb on Finland's national TV because he didn't know his mic was already on line. And Juolevi also cursed during his interview

 

[Shark Finn]

Good one.

 

[Led Zappa]

Yeah, the officiating favored Finland slightly. They took advantage and played almost a flawless we have the lead game.

 

[Led Zappa]

America - **** Yeah!

 

[do0glas]

Milano just burned that guy

 

[Barrie22]

So russia vs finland in the finals. Did not even remotely see that ever happening.

 

[Episkey]

Dissapointing ending for Team USA. I think Finland takes this in front of their home crowd.

 

[Jwec]

Congratulations Team USA for Bronze medal. Shame that we isn't playing against USA on final. I'm glad that they got Bronze.

Edit. Corrected grammar mistake

 

[sr228]

This Gold Medal game is freaking outstanding!!!!!!

 

[sr228]

The Finnish captain comes up HUGE and yet another team is going to unravel taking way too many penalties against FIN and may lose the game.

 

[Led Zappa]

Unreal

 

[sr228]

I love this game.

 

[The Nemesis]

Holy balls, this game is intense.

Awful for Finland though. Less than 7 seconds from victory and now they have to play OT or a shootout where one bad break can undo their utterly dominant 3rd period.

That's why the WJC is the best

Really? I was under the impression that it was a worthless tournament that nobody cares about except Canada, and that's only because TSN shoves it down the country's throat every year as a baseless, manufactured, faux "tradition" in order to chase those sweet, sweet advertising dollars.

 

[The Great John Scott]

I turned the game on with like 2 minutes left in the 3rd to see the Russian captain get ejected, only to see that comeback...

Holy **** what a scramble to tie it!

 

[magic school bus]

From goat to goat, Ivan Provorov. Well done kid

 

[sr228]

My OT picks are Aho & Svechnikov and I hope this game is won with like 4 seconds left in OT.

 

[Jwec]

This game has been so awesome! Sucks that Russia did that goal only 6 seconds left third but I really hope we win. And what Kamenev did was so unsportsmanlike and disgusting. If he would've been Finn I would hope that Russia would win just because of this.

 

[Led Zappa]

I'm not willing to judge yet. No one even knows what the first 10 minute MC was for. Intermission team didn't see anything.

Provonov and Werenski are going to be fun to compare as they get into the NHL.

Someone covering the tournament said he 'hit' the official which if true isn't good but teenagers (shockingly) sometimes have trouble controlling their emotions.
