PGT: WJC Gold Medal Game | Finland Win Gold Over USA 3-2

[Esko6]

It's a sport where you kick a ball with your feet. Hence football. If a sport is about throwing and carrying an egg-shaped object, hand-egg would be a more logical name for it than football.

Eggs do not have pointy ends.

 

[SI90]

So basically a goalie doesn’t even have to cover a puck in the crease. Can just let it sit on the blue paint as long as he wants lol

 

[BB88]

Pulju was my #1 ranked prospect at that time. I started to grow a little more concerned after that. He's got some serious puck control issues.

He still has those same issues, doesn't help that Todd had no plans for his development.

The point still is that it's easy to get "underrated" in Europe. Both Heiskanen& Kotka were rising in the standings late in the year creating lot of the comments I wrote earlier.

UsA takes out fins best player

so dirty

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Yeah after watching that replay I don't know about calling that one off.

 

[Ajaton Azer]

This has been very nice and evenly matched final thus far. All our young Finnish lions have to do is to play just a little bit better, so they will score one goal more than team USA. I think this is certainly achievable!

 

[Saekk]

I'm in America where it's football. That other thing is communist kickball divefest

Yikes.

 

[SI90]

The Finns are always biased, yet it’s always the Americans making awful claims.

tHe RefEreES WaNT tHe FiNnS tO wIn!

I never said anything about refs or who they want to win. Whoever made that call it was a horrible call.

That’s an excellent hockey goal

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

IIHF rules are so stupid.

Eggs do not have pointy ends.

Nor do they have laces

 

[Macch]

i still can't believe you review that play and still call it no goal

 

[Merya]

I legitimately don't know if you mean soccer, rugby, or real football just played in Europe (Like NFL Europe)

 

[Lepardi]

On Finnish TV they're showing the disallowed goal right now and the studio host asked "do you have any idea of why that goal didn't count". It was quiet for a while.

 

[DoubleGold]

Why didn't Honka get injured instead of Talvitie.

 

[Jakk123]

I just logged in to say this was probably the stupidest call I have ever seen in my life.

 

[Thebesthockey]

Good goal

just like russians had good goal yesterday


karma

 

[Prins Filip]

Noticed now from the replay, that the USA forward pushed UPL’s blocker with the stick instead of playing the puck, which caused him to spin a bit away from the puck and the point where the disallowed goal was scored.

If the USA forward rushing into the crease would actually have played the puck instead of just going to the crease, it probably would have been allowed.

 

[Fred McCarthy]

Sorry , that was a goal

 

[TimeZone]

Well, feel free to think whatever you like. But you can't deny Heiskanen, Kotkaniemi fitting the bill. Then again, what can I expect out of someone whose MO seems to be off-topic showboating?

What did I ever say about Heiskanen? And FWIW I believe there are several players with higher upside than Kotkaniemi Drafted after #3.

 

[Lepardi]

Eggs do not have pointy ends.

Do balls have pointy ends?

[king89]

Im a finn and i think its goal

 

[blood gin]

Do balls have pointy ends?

Yes

 

[jj cale]

I see it's the usual bicker fest around here with objectivity among fans being more difficult to find then the body of Jimmy Hoffa.

And it is usually just 2-3 incredibly biased guys that get the ball rolling and then it just goes completely sideways
