World Cup SF: Sep 10 GDT - USA vs. Finland

[Riggins]

Saku!

 

[DevMod9]

Finland is tough as nails. The Ruutus caused havoc all over the ice.

 

[Riddarn]

What a great job by Finland.


Anyone want to argue that Miikka Kiprusoff isn't for real?

He's an excellent goalie but the finns won it because they are a team and they play sooo well disciplined! If ever defensive hockey can be entertaining, this was.

 

[NYR2]

Ugh I'm sick to my stomach right now. Devastated they lost.

 

[TheBigBadB]

Leetch is terrible defensively...Every time he was on the ice Finland had a chance to score...Its time to hang'em up...

[Pepper]

Better team won, despite refs doing their best to hand it to team USA.

How the hell did Amonte escape penalty??? Unbelieveable.

Canada vs Finland.

 

[Jyroe Habs Fan]

Saku Koivu is a leader and champion no question about that.
He always play his best when the game is important (Playoffs or World Championships).
Kipper is for real Flame Fans.
Great Job by Finland. They could easily win it all.

HAHA bye bye Americans.

Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Hey, Good Bye

Wanna play any other sport other than hockey and beat us?

Didn't think so....

 

[FINNtastic]

Bye bye Team Viagra!!! Finland is in the final!!! Woohoo!!!!

 

[Burnaby_Joe*]

It's been a slice, Tkachuk.

 

[DevMod9]

Leetch is terrible defensively...Every time he was on the ice Finland had a chance to score...Its time to hang'em up...

I think the Finns could smell the fear emanating from Leetch's jersey. They attacked like a pack of dogs when he tried to scramble with the puck deep in his own zone.

 

[JVR]

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Congrats, i'm sooo happy!

[Buffalo Stylee]

Just like your "Dream Team"? :lol

I could care less about basketball. By the way, where did the Canadians place in that sport? ...

 

[Kyri]

What's the American hockey team up to? :lol

 

[VanIslander]

As I'm on record as stating before the tourney: A Canada-Finland Final coming up.

Finland obviously has the goaltending, blueliners and defensive forwards to win low scoring hockey games. My only doubt was their ability to score clutch goals, but that hasn't been a problem.


By the way, only 2 % of over 75,000 voters at the nhl.com poll picked Finland to win it all (over 15% picked Slovakia).

I considered the Finns to be way underrated.

Though Canada will still take it all in the end, as predicted before the tourney, 4-1 over Finland.

 

[TheBigBadB]

The NHL needs to get as many american fans as possible. From their standpoint it's a great penalty [/end conspiracy]. What makes me so angry is that they haven't called a thing all period and now this. Typical.

Eveything is a god damn conspiracy with you canucks...

There was many penalties missed both ways, but that hit was all elbow to the head...
