[IceHockeyDude]

Deserved goal for Swedes.

Agreed unfortunately.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

What a game by annunen

 

[Opak]

Finland is losing every puck battle right now.

 

[Brun0]

Fire helminen, our gap game is horrible

 

[Canucks LB]

Hoglander with the assist, big goal for Fagemo
Dominant line all game

Finland’s defence was doing nothing on that goal. Not clearing the crease, not putting pressure on the puck carrier or the shooter... yet, even while they’re backing away the Swede gets to the rebound first. Wtf?

 

[Star Ocean]

Hoglander should been on the team last year. Another gaffe by monten.

Poor Annunen had no support, he tried to clear his own rebound from in front of the net. Unfortunately he missed and wasn't able to make it back to position to stop the second shot...

 

[Zub]

We don't deserve this win. Heinola and Honka have been trash. Almost everyone have been playing like beer leaguers.

It was a bad rebound from Annunen and he probably has it if he didn't go for the whack. He's fine though as the defense has done him no favors at all tonight.
Tough game and he's handling it very well.

What's new? Annunen's very much alone.

 

[tellermine]

Team Finland was bad.
Goalie is good. Teamplay 0.

LOL dementia?

 

[Zub]

This is the worst teamplay i've seen in years. Yuck.

 

[canswetoxic]

Annunen is going to go big in NHL

 

[ChicagoBullsFan]

Hello Finland's dmans where the hell you were in 2-2 goal.
Nice and complete meltdown in that situation.

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

Annunen is going to go big in NHL

After Puljujärvi I've stopped believing that the WJC means shit if the outside packet of the player isn't all there

But I've seen Annunen throughout the season and he's been really impressive so far.

 

[Jaska]

This should be 5-2 for Sweden, but Annunen is stealing the game.

 

[karhukissa]

Kotka, Kakko and Lundell would've made a heck of a difference.

Heinola, Thomson and Honka needs to wake up.

 

[Kaako Kappo]

Maccelli is very good. Just has no friends out there.

 

[FinPanda]

When almost every Finn is playing terribly I blame it on coaching which isn't a surprise. Helminen doesn't have any system the players can rely on.

Honka and Heinola being trash isn't a surprise.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Wow dive?

 

[McCullogh]

I'm rather happy with the way my Sweden have played (for the most parts).
But the big thing I take away from this game is Annunens sensational performance between the posts.

 

[Finnsane]

Thomson is garbage
