GDT: Quarterfinal • Feb. 19 • Finland vs. Russia • Part I

[SnapVirus]

Ovechkin is really bad

 

[crowi]

Rask is carrying us

 

[Plural]

One more minute, one more minute. Come on!

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Rask like wall

 

[Dominus]

To be fair, Russia has not played to their potential at any point in this tournament so far

Neither has Canada. And there's only limited potential in Russia's system even if they have highly skilled individuals.

 

[CornKicker]

done that suffocating defence isnt going to let the russians even get a scoring chance let alone score

 

[TANK200]

Quick run down for someone that just started watching the game?

Finland is up 3-1.

 

[chauron]

This is basically 20 minutes of PK. Can be done!

 

[SprDaVE]

Rask is carrying us

He had/has to be excellent for Finland to win. Even with a healthy lineup.

 

[Nose Face Killah]

It's Tuukka Time now.

 

[Gigantor The Goalie]

Neither has Canada. And there's only limited potential in Russia's system even if they have highly skilled individuals.

Our forwards are struggling but unlike the Russians our defense is top notch

 

[Brooklanders*]

Wow. Rask is one great goalie.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Russia has so much offensive talent, and yet they can't put a damn thing together.

 

[Stephenson2*]

Ovechkin is really bad

It's a shame. Love the guys play recently, but he's reverted back to his bull in a china shop mentality.

 

[DrStrangelife]

YES!!!! Still 3:1 after the 2nd.

 

[Plural]

This can't be good for my heart.

 

[crowi]

Hahaha Kovy soooo frustrated

 

[ChickenBurrito]

Is there a bigger hothead in hockey than Kovalchuk?

 

[a mangy Meowth]

Finland is just stomping the Russians. Huge question marks for that offense

 

[CornKicker]

to beat the finns you have to get pressure down low and use your defence to get screen/deflections to beat rask. the russians dont have the blueline for that

 

[agent082]

Kovalchuk takes bad penalty.

 

[Raging Bull]

Too many one on twos for Russia.

 

[Metalcommand]

Kovalchuk mad.

 

[Finnsane]

Kovy must hate Finland by now, always hot as hell against us

 

[damicius]

How many saves does Bobrovsky have?
