Manc with a wig, that's all.

 

[TurboBrick]

4-2 Slovakia, reported attendance... 10200.

 

[QnebO]

Kummola 6, leijonat 0


All I can think of is the ticket fiasco. Hope I can concentrate to the actual games soon

 

[MMANumminen]

It's may already and the girls should be wearing bikini. I just woke up and there's like half a meter of snow outside wtf.

Funny to say this but I think Kiiskinen will improve the 1st line. Maybe he can score. Some big dudes in Slovakian defence.

Finland 4-2

 

[Hzzz]

Hudáček and Tatar were really good in the last match. Finland should watch out for those guys.

Same here. Yesterday I was super mad. Today just mad. Maybe tomorrow things get close to normal

Hoping Lions win but I don't mind if they lose because unhappy Kummola makes me smile.

Where do you live man?

Tough game coming up, hopefully they look out for Slovakia's most dangerous players and start putting pucks in. Is Jokinen out for real?

 

[Haite]

Is Jokinen out for real?

Jokinen himself said this morning that he will be playing.

 

[FinHockey]

I thought Jokinen was playing?

Dude, you live in a zamboni cave right?

 

[Lapa]

Is Jokinen out from this game?

3-1 Finland.

 

[IceHockeyDude]

Tuomas Kiiskinen on the first line are you kiddings me? Is Kiiskinen really the greatest sniper from Finland?

 

[Haite]

Kiiskinen replaced Jokinen only for yesterday's practice for cautionary reasons. Jokinen will play in the game.

 

[slovakiasnextone]

Ján Laco will start for Slovakia in this one. Michal Handzuš might or might not play, to be decided shortly before the game.

 

[Finnpin]

Ján Laco will start for Slovakia in this one. Michal Handzuš might or might not play, to be decided shortly before the game.

Scouting report about him?

 

[FinHockey]

Scouting report about him?

Or either one of the Slovak goalies. I know nothing about them.

 

[Ciccarelli]

I hope Kudroc levels a couple of Finnish guys.

 

[Finnpin]

I hope Kudroc levels a couple of Finnish guys.

I think he will not catch them.

Kudroc and Chara looks little bit like these guys from Helsinki Railway Station:

 

[Juzmo]

I think he will not catch them.

Kudroc and Chara looks little bit like these guys from Helsinki Railway Station:

He's not that slow to be honest.

Interested to see how he does against us, didn't have the best game against Canada.

 

[Mestaruus]

He's probably from Rovaniemi. Iltalehti said there snowed 19cm of snow last night...

 

[Finnpin]

Hudáček and Tatar were really good in the last match. Finland should watch out for those guys.

Your first post. Welcome aboard.

 

[FiLe]

Oh. There's a game today?

Well, seriously. Of course there is, but I'm somehow feeling... bland. I mean, I'm sure it's going to be a good game with good players on both sides, but the frame it's happening in is seriously affecting my anticipation. Just... meh.

Anybody else feeling the same?

 

[QnebO]

Finlands gonna troll them slovaks tonight
