Niskala! Nice! IN YOUR FACE LÄRKING!

 

[Leizi]

Boom! Niskala

 

[Juzmo]

Niskala woot. 2-2

 

[TeppoWinnipeg]

That was a good shot.

 

[QnebO]

Two words for aaltonen ja n kapanen (that break away):

YLÄ MUMMO

YLÄ MUMMOOOOOOOO

 

[cska78]

2:2, darn

 

[Blank]

Whaa.. A finnish defender actually managed to get the puck to the net.

 

[mattihp]

Does anyone else hear the Benny Hill theme music as soon as Jaakola is on the ice?

 

[Jussi]

Russia has no team game, it's all about individuals trying to push through by themselves.

 

[Juzmo]

Whaa.. A finnish defender actually managed to get the puck to the net.

I was more amazed on how he managed to lift the puck.

 

[mattihp]

Why doesn't Lärking ever call offsides in the slot? Both teams really use his lack of calling them..

 

[mattihp]

Russia has no team game, it's all about individuals trying to push through by themselves.

It's sad because they really had something going. NO ONE can beat a TEAM Russia, but they are back to their own ways.

 

[joey16]

Wow Granlund.. he is a beast.. how I envy you this guy

 

[Sakaarnis]

Granlund... amazing.

 

[Latex*]

Granlund hit the crossbar

Lol Immonen hitting the boards again.

 

[Charlie Milles*]

We stay awake during English classes in school.

You have English classes? I'm flattered.

 

[QnebO]

Again russian kneeling in front of Immonen, begging to not crush him. Immonen says: Here you go, my son. Just kneel and you wont be hurt!

 

[mattihp]

Again russian kneeling in front of Immonen, begging to not crush him. Immonen says: Here you go, my sun. Just kneel and you wont be hurt!

They aren't really shining all that much. I've never seen a russian team that is so bad when it comes to holding onto the puck.

 

[thomast]

Granlund almost made the goal of the tournament.

 

[QnebO]

They aren't really shining all that much. I've never seen a russian team that is so bad when it comes to holding onto the puck.

Great typing by me... Yep, they arent that great. As discussed earlier, both teams sucked in first, no one was playing their best. Now Finland made it a bit better, russians didint, untill the very end of peroid.

We still played pretty bad. Some good things and situations but we still need to ad more energy imo and stop taking penalties.

 

[SPMaximus]

You have English classes? I'm flattered.

English and Swedish, and usually French or German (or something else) is also available if you want to

 

[Stanleyjub]

God damnit why is it that every single game of Finland, is gonna give me heartproblems. Long 3rd period coming D:

 

[QnebO]

How many times we have come back from being behind in goals in this tournament? Thats really positive. These guys they seem to never give up.

 

[Brun0]

Wow thought that Granlund backhander went in, such a beast!

 

[Charlie Milles*]

ROFL I was just thinking to myself; I'm watching Finnish TV, why haven't I heard any metal. And then an Iron Maiden/Metallica commercial comes on.
