Finland has pressed hard the last 10min

Shots are something like 10-2 to Finland in the second. Still, SH breakaway to Russia that didn't result a shot. Lots of pressure but only 2-3 good scoring chanches. And one really good one where Kapanen missed the open net on PP.

Finland has improved, now they just need to score couple of goals in the third and thats it!

 

[Taranis]

Its classic Russia in a single elimination game.

 

[Kahvi]

Laine!

 

[Kahvi]

Finland has a great chance to take 2-1 lead, they miss and Russia scores, so 2-1 to Russia.

But oh my, Laine has a really good shot

 

[Taranis]

That Russian shot to make it 2 was elite.

 

[Kahvi]

Aho! 2-2! Two goals from that line after no goals in semifinal

 

[Calculon]

Beautiful pass by Puljujarvi

 

[Kahvi]

Not sure if Laine got an assist for that goal but his aggressive play on the boards made that play possible.

 

[Kahvi]

Another penalty for Russia. Now it's the time to score!

 

[Kahvi]

3-2!!!! Rantanen!! If we win this all is forgiven, 1+2 in the semifinal and final for him. While Russian captain takes 5+20 for unsportsmanlike conduct.

 

[Taranis]

lol Russian gets ejected.

 

[Kahvi]

10+20 min (or something like that) so no PP for Finland. Still not what you want from your captain.

10+20 min (or something like that) so no PP for Finland. Still not what you want from your captain.

Now there's no one to lead them to the handshake line.

 

[Kahvi]

oh ****

 

[xMatMcC]

Find away Russians > find away flames

 

[Otzelor]

wow. 3:3 Proverov. Unlucky Finland.

 

[Taranis]

Typical.

 

[Kahvi]

I was sure we win this. Oh ****. I'm really nervous now

 

[Kahvi]

Last two WJC golds for Finland were OT games. Here's for another one!

 

[Kahvi]

Kapanen!!!!!!

 

[Taranis]

Nice move by Kaps.

 

[Kahvi]

No words, I'm so ****ing happy now!!!

 

[Kahvi]

Really happy for Kapanen, he must have hit the post 4 times this tournament.

 

[Calculon]

Puljujarvi named the top forward, MVP of the tournament. All kinds of impressive as a 17 year old.

Honestly, finishing with a bottom two pick for a player like that would be worth it.
