[Garl]

So were is this overrated Grunland hobbit again?

Finland sucks

Oh, a classy canadian! Don is proud of you, good boy!

 

[Vomiting Kermit*]

No, it definitely happens at every Oilers (and Eskimos) game

Yeah but it's a lot more noticeable on television when TSN is doing the game. I don't know if the crowd is louder on TSN than Sportsnet, but it sounds like a drunk wave.

 

[Willy Lindstrom]

Hey how did my wife get on YouTube???

 

[Royal Canuck]

LOL Gord Miller and Ray Ferraro are busy talking about Facebook and Twitter while the game is going on.

 

[Forgot About Drai]

Sick Daft Punk!

 

[Jussi]

Like the Swedish commentators said, Finland have played far too sloppy. Poor passing and bad marking.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Canada is clearly better, but how much would you think these boards would cry if Visentin would have a save percentage like 80%?

If Canada was giving up one timers right in front I wouldn't blame Visentin. Of the goals he's given up, I'd say the Hamilton one is the only one you can really place any blame on the 'tender.

 

[Finnpin]

Ye, good point. I'm very surprised as well. They usually have more fight and pride than today..

Our coach is a joke in this level.

 

[Fred Murtz]

Jonathan Huberdeau goal

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa]

7-1 Finland

Mi. Granlund 2x
Ma. Granlund
Pulkkinen 2x
Armia
Hämäläinen

Visentin

Just thought I'd revisit this prediction to see how it's looking...

Hmm. Not so good.

he has been dangerous whole game

 

[King Woodballs]

Concussed after that cheap shot in the 1st.

Give it a rest
Stop being so butt hurt
Teach the kid to keep his head up

Come on guys we dont have to rub it in.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Finn's should try to give Barkov more time, I think he's done good things when he has been out there.

 

[4thliner*]

it's their first game of the tournament against the strongest team.. they'll rebound

I would not call Canada the strongest team outright in the Tourney. Sweden was mighty impressive and was not physically intimidated.

non stop yapping during the actual play....

 

[Evil Doctor]

Shame Visentin is in goal, otherwise we would have a real shot at winning this game...

 

[Royal Canuck]

great 2nd period by Canada. Very textbook powerplays and great forechecking. They deserve every bit of this 5-1 lead. They do need to play a slight bit better in their own end though. Finland is gunna have to step it up big time if they wanna get back into this game and it's gotta start on D.

 

[Wasted Talent]

Just thought I'd revisit this prediction to see how it's looking...

Hmm. Not so good.

What do you mean? It's almost 7-1.

 

[s7ark]

Gormley has looked really solid today. Unspectacular but very effective.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

I actually miss Pierre McGuire.

 

[Nordic*]

We lost one of our best players in that game. And even if we hadn't, Canada should be a better team - at least individually. Them having 20 times more registered juniors playing hockey than Sweden gives the anser why.

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaaaa]

Come on guys we dont have to rub it in.

Normally I wouldn't. But when I made a comment about it, I got dragged through a little mud by some of my friends from Finland. There's a backstory is what I am saying.

We've all been on the losing side of these....hope no one has hurt feelings. It's all in fun. What comes around always goes around.

This.

As a Canadian hockey fan, Sweden is the team that scares me the most.

Wow, let it go already
