U18: World Championship, Lappeenranta & Imatra, Finland

[kp61c]

For me it's my first time even watching them. I'm not sure if these are even televised before.

it's the third time for me and yours one is the worst by a huge margin. frankly i don't think you can make it worse than this year.

 

[JFG]

Nylander being rested?

 

[FinPanda]

Ah, big lions game is nice to watch. U18 game is painful to watch. Debut for Teräväinen in adult finnish team and already he has an assist.

Not a single Sweden game was streamed last year.

 

[VictorLustig]

Nylander being rested?

So it seems.

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Eichel is showing signs of life as the number 2 rated player behind McDavid. Guess he was conserving energy during preliminary play.

Connor continues to impress with unrelenting forechecking and being dangerously opportunistic in the offensive zone.

Larkin is such an explosive, reliable guy up the middle of the ice with the puck. Underrated vision and passing.

The entire D effort has been solid as unit. Glover with the only real gaffe that wasn't converted on anyway.

Thanks for the recap!

so? and even than to compare this one with sochi'd be a sacrilege

They are like this because not many cares about U18. When something happens in Russia its always big because there no one cares about profit.

 

[JFG]

Has Sweden stopped shooting?

 

[kp61c]

yep, and when some event is held in finland you always try to milk every last cent you can out of it.

Pretty much true specially when it comes to hockey.

I might be wrong but doesn't IIHF own the TV rights and then it's up to each country to buy them? So blame your own country's channels for not acquiring the rights. Pay-tv sucks for Finns but it's not really the Finnish broadcasters job to provide easy access to unauthorized streams.

This is actually the truth about this. But our team sucks so I want to blame Kummola for everything now.

 

[torero]

Not available on free tv = no streams. Channel also only airs Finland's games.

thanks

Kal€ needs his money.

yep, that's true as well. but there's no demand for the tournament here whatsoever. sadly, i'd be moronic for our channes to buy the tv rights from ihhf for wjc 18 and no point in showing the games

MTV3 has the rights for all of Team Finland's games, Worlds, U-20 and U-18. It's up to them how much they are able and willing to televise.

Yeah but they don't own the rights to Televise games in Russia or USA for example, they only own rights in Finland.

 

[torero]

Someone has a stream for Canada - Switzerland ?

that should be aired ... Canadians always get a way !

tks in advance

Cant really blame Kalervo Kummola for that fact, sadly.

that's fast

 

[VictorLustig]

Jesus...what are the finns doing?

 

[Jussi]

Yeah but they don't own the rights to Televise games in Russia or USA for example, they only own rights in Finland.

They have access to feeds from tournaments from abroad and I think their rights obligate them to air Finland's games.

 

[joe89]

SVT already decided to show the final if Sweden plays in it.. So yup, the games are there to buy, just no one doing it.
