GDT: Group B - May 5 - Finland vs Korea

[Vancouver Canucks]

Nope. Where is the joke? Russia plays usually better when Ovechkin is not in the team. He said that they are not going to be good because Ovechkin is not in the team. So where’s the joke?

The obvious stereotype that Ovechkin's being overrated?

 

[Johno]

Pokka just isn't getting it done on this PP

Yes he is overrated. And also not good for the Russian national team, because he affects their playstyle in the way that they play one dimensionally only to find him when he is playing. He has also not been good at clutch moments, but is more like a whiner when the going gets tough.

He'll get it done this PP. That should boost his confidence and keep him motivated in the long run.

Ouch - you're 0/2 on predictions

 

[Ippenator]

Aho is such a wonderful and fast skater. I still find it weird that some people don’t see how magnificent skater he is.

I didn't ask you to evaluate me.

Underhill 6-1

Someone from Kore actually scored? Wow.

Dalton can't stop a beachball.

Chatting absolute shit I see, Yeah sure russia is worse having the goat goalscorer on their team you know ovechkin only has 3 wc golds not a winner. What does the bolded even mean lmao?

 

[Jussi]

Kapanen 7-1.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Chatting absolute **** I see, Yeah sure russia is worse having the goat goalscorer on their team you know ovechkin only has 3 wc golds not a winner. What does the bolded even mean lmao?

I don't think he whines, to be honest.

Ovie hasn't been exactly on a prominent role on those teams.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Ovie hans't been exactly on a prominent role on those teams.

Who's on the prominent role, then? Kuznetsov?

 

[TheFinnishTrap]

Good time to post since he just scored, but Kapanen just seems to have no hockey IQ at times.

 

[RageQuit77]

Ookey. This is the moment where difference in lower body stamina begins to come really visible.

Hopefully Finns won't start to be too courteous. Just continue the ice training.

Speed and grit are what you need for the game against Korea.

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

No tripping call against Korea there?

 

[ddlennon]

Ovie hans't been exactly on a prominent role on those teams.

2008 6+6 in 6 games
2012 joined the team late 2+2 in 3 games
2014 4+7 in 9 games

Total 28 pts in 18 games

Only 1,5ppg in those gold medal tournies, but sure lets not let facts get in the way

 

[Vancouver Canucks]

Wow. A Korean commentator just called Harry Sateri an NHL-caliber player.

 

[Ippenator]

Who's on the prominent role, then? Kuznetsov?

Malkin was usually, if he played. A much better PLAYER than Ovechkin.

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

Wow. A Korean commentator just called Harry Sateri an NHL-caliber player.

He played out of this world in his time for Florida this season. I don't oppose that comment at all.
The stats hide it a bit though.

2.92 GAA is "out of the world"?

 

[Ippenator]

Wow. A Korean commentator just called Harry Sateri an NHL-caliber player.

9 NHL games last season, and played pretty well in those. Hard to claim that he isn’t NHL-caliber really. A bit early to make a final decision on that though.
