GDT: May 11 • Finland 7, Austria 2

[1rd]

Ortio diving.

Melart has been a positive surprise so far, love how physical he is.

 

[Teme-84]

First I thought what on earth the Austrian player was doing but Ortio made it look a bit more dramatic than it really was.

You could see from his reaction he didn't intend to do it.

Definitely some embellishment there

 

[vsk92]

That was all unnecessary Ortio skated towards the Austrian then fell pretty easily

 

[Arto Kilponen]

That Finnish powerplay is so horrible that I'm this close from beginning to cry. For a minute they passed and passed and passed and passed and no-one wanted to shoot. Then finally they passed it to center ice. I seriously want to know that who has convinced them that it is much easier to score if you never shoot.

 

[vsk92]

Both sets of players are doing stupid things.

Austrian player kicked out of game for spearing.

 

[Finnsane]

5+20 for Welser for trying to sterilize Kukkonen

 

[QnebO]

5+20? Well, slash to the balls...

 

[Juzmo]

Not sure why everybody is laughing at what Ortio did. Pretty typical behavior for goaltenders.

 

[Finnsane]

Yay, brainfarts

 

[Bullwhip Reds*]

Kukkonen neutered. Finnish gene pool thanks Austria. Danke sehr. Btw, try Melart on pp, mighty slapper.

 

[Juzmo]

Solid powerplay by Finland.

3-2...

 

[Finnsane]

Awesome powerplay

 

[Grove]

Oh dear lord.

 

[Killerinstinct]

Two shorthanded goals for Austria. Wtf?

 

[Leizi]

Haha

 

[YARR123]

WTF, time to wake up. They've dominated the whole game and now they give up TWO SHORTHANDED GOALS in 2 minutes.

 

[QnebO]

Two goals on this 5min pp, great... just in the wrong net.

WTF, time to wake up. They've dominated the whole game and now they give up TWO SHORTHANDED GOALS in 2 minutes.

That is what happens when a team starts thinking a game is over.

And had a questionable goalie.

Finland has had all the chances in the world to put this away but they thought it's done so they started messing around trying to score the pretty goal etc. Now it has come to bite them in the ass. Take everyone seriously, 3 goal lead is nothing in hockey.

horrible attitude by our team, they should be professionals.

 

[BalticWarrior]

Wow austria is serious, they won us and slovaks and now trailing only one to Finns.

 

[hmpf]

Watch out, another PP for Suomi

 

[vsk92]

Nice slide tackle by that Austrian, wrong sport though

 

[psycho_dad*]

Wow austria is serious, they won us and slovaks and now trailing only one to Finns.

They are not playing well at all, Finland completely stopped playing and thought this was over. Nobody was doing any work.

Now they are back to work, but now it's a one goal game so there's always that small chance of an upset

I place blame for that solely to Jukka Jalonen, if the head coach can not prevent that kind of attitude from spreading then what exactly is he doing there?

Important goal by Korpikoski

Hagman 5:2.
