In this case it's also known as being a realist. I'm not saying Finland doesn't have a chance at winning, but you're just kidding yourself if you honestly believe that it's a 50-50 game with these teams... If it was best against best then it would be 50-50.

Well atleast Finland has the best player of both teams

When I approach or watch hockey match of my favourite team or Finnish National team, i dont really care to think anything like that. I only accecpt the victory and root for that Time of analysis is later.

 

[BusQuets]

Hockey is so small sport globally and with all the effort Finland puts in this sport.. yeah i cannot accept anything else than win against everyone

 

[Swipes]

Should be a close one. I'm gonna be controversial and go for a Finnish win, because I am worried about our defence.

Pretty much. I obviously root for the team and hope they will win, but won't be that sad if they lose and very happy if they win this one. Yeah I know, I'm not the most passionate/emotional person in the world when it comes to the national hockey team, but I don't feel like there is something wrong with that.

Well said.


BTW i would like to see Granlund on a line with Komarov or Ruutu. Would give him more time with the puck.

I hate how Mertaranta always gives advices to the players.

Btw Lahti and Kukkonen both suck.
