GDT: Quarterfinal • May 12 • Finland 4, Norway 1

[mattihp]

He has no idea where he's putting his rebounds and he's a little too shallow in his crease. I'm not worried about him I just think Finland has a chance to take advantage of it and score a garbage goal before Haugen settles in. Hence, shooting off-angle and from unorthodox places.

Only Nokelainen really goes for rebounds on this team..

 

[Mirinho]

I'm very surprised how much tacticaly Norway improved in last few years

 

[mattihp]

Norway is winning pretty much every draw.

Weak shot by Nokelainen.

without looking at the roster, how many NHL players does Finland have ? Norway has 1...

5, pretty average guys except Koivu and Ruutu.

Ruutu has been pretty average this far though.

Well,more like ,5. Holøs didnt play half the season even I dont think

 

[TonsofPuppies*]

Mascot randomness.

 

[Paatos]

There won't be many goals scored in this match, that's for sure.

Both teams are über-careful.

Kurri!

Mascot randomness.

That mascot kicks ass

 

[member 116805]

Wow, that was close!

 

[Latex*]

Our D lacks some Sammy Vatanen.

E: Holding?!?

 

[mattihp]

Norway is really strong on the puck when they get it.

 

[Mahox]

weak penalty.
PP for Norway

 

[MaNNe]

Haha, Finland is just soo horrible. I'm hoping for a Norway win here so we can get rid of Jalonen, it's not like we'd have any chance against Canada anyways.

Bastiansen is so ****ing strong, you have to club him in his head to get him off the puck behind the net

 

[Glennsoe]

Finland went from a 10-1 lead in shots to only a 14-9 lead...

 

[SKS]

Looked as though Norway was doing a "flying V" bringing the puck forward on their PP

 

[mattihp]

Bastiansen is so ****ing strong, you have to club him in his head to get him off the puck behind the net

Agreed. He looked like an ox. About twice as strong as in the SEL.

 

[TollefsenFan]

Jeeeez not good so far

 

[Glennsoe]

so that was a holding, while that was NOT a tripping ?

Riiight...

 

[Espher]

I keep trying to find a foreign language feed where the commentators have a little more energy (since I can't find a TSN stream). I mean, if I can't understand a word, I'd at least like some enthusiasm.

 

[Mahox]

Vehanen seems really shaken after the russia game, rebounds all over the place.

 

[member 116805]

Weeeeeeeeeak PP

 

[member 116805]

Jesuuuuuuuuuus! Wow, how could that not be a goal!
