I understand that you hate Norrena, but 4 weak goals?

Oh no I dont hate Norrena. He was just bad against Russia. I wish he would not have been!

Yeah first and last goals were weak and he did not do anything to stop the two powerplay goals...he could not move laterally. If he would have been able to move laterally, he could have had a good chance to stop them, but he left the goal completely open on both so...Its not that he should have saved them both...but he should have been able to give a better effort to do so.

 

[hdw]

Yes!

Love the russians!

They started to play humppa when J.Ruutu lost his head

 

[jepjepjoo]

that was odd

 

[psycho_dad*]

What on EARTH was that penalty to Ruutu? He did absolutely nothing, just stood there and tried to help teammates a bit.

Both teams should have been penalized.

 

[Ciccarelli]

Mr. referee??

Wow I think Koivu just tackled Jönsson's ugly head off!

 

[Matti_A]

Great play by Ruutu.

He decided to block the shot and let Kari see the puck. Not like so many others who just stand there and block the view of the goalie and don't stop the puck either.

 

[Chimpradamus]

Ruutu got it because he was the third man into the situation.

Not really. He comes in from behind without no reason... thats a penalty in NHL as well. The canadian ref is right. What i don´t understand how the hell Errka Westlund can pick him for the national team... its embarrasing.

eventually the swedish guy lost his temper and made his move.. "surprisingly" Jarkko got the penalty

 

[psycho_dad*]

Ruutu got it because he was the third man into the situation.

So the 4th man who was a swede didnt bother the ref?

 

[Matti_A]

Jarkko Ruutu has been our best player so far today. So much energy and sisu.

He went in as 3:rd and gave whoever it was a little loving touch from behind.

That isn't esp liked by refs on any side of the atlantic.

I think you already got your answer...who drew that penalty?

Ruutu also set up a scoring chance in first period. He is VERY valuable.

 

[Talentless Practise*]

Ruutu got it because he was the third man into the situation.

But how can there be a third man in penalty for a situation that noone gets penalized? Oh well, good kill and now PP Finland.

 

[Chimpradamus]

So the 4th man who was a swede didnt bother the ref?

"Third man in" is a matter of speech as well I think. I guess the ref thought Ruutu did the most to deserve a penalty. He was the only one throwing a punch, but I'm not sure, it was a pretty tight scrum.

But yeah, normally you penalize both teams.

 

[hdw]

So the 4th man who was a swede didnt bother the ref?

Basicly no.

Two players having a squabble isn't that bad.
A third coming in to have a whack from behind is bad.
The fourth coming in and whacking number 3 is called "you asked for it"

 

[psycho_dad*]

"Third man in" is a matter of speech as well I think. I guess the ref thought Ruutu did the most to deserve a penalty. He was the only one throwing a punch, but I'm not sure.

No he didnt...the only punch or a push was to knock Ruutu down.

 

[Crazyhorse]

One could definitely suspect what was said to J.Ruutu by Hörnquist.

"Din jävla f***a."

 

[Matti_A]

No point in crying about the ref. It is what it is and you just have to live with it whether you like it or not.

 

[Riddarn]

Yawn..

 

[jepjepjoo]

what did Jönssön say from the bench after Koivu hit him?

 

[hdw]

One could definitely suspect what was said to J.Ruutu by Hörnquist.

"Din jävla f***a."

I giggled at the comment from rinkside.

"Jarkko Ruutu and Hedström is yapping at eachother all the time, esp when going back to the bench, and they are not exactly comparing vacation memories.".

 

[hdw]

what did Jönssön say from the bench after Koivu hit him?

Noone knows, his accent is so wierd

 

[Shack]

Good game so far, but like always we need someone to score. Where's Selänne
Ref's been good and I like the way Finland is forechecking and hitting. Hopefully we manage to score at the third.
