Team Finland 2022 WHC champions
That was Tappara's 4th game in 6 days..
They will play 6 in 9 days. But yea not the best game for him.

0+1 today so point streak continues. It's now 4 games.
4+5 after WJC in 8 games.
How hard is Laines slapshot? I mean it has probably been measured at some point?
When I was younger and played in a boys team we got to measure our shots at a christmas event the staff of the junior organisation had aranged.
However, they should measure it if it hasent been made
There was a slapshot competition inside the Finnish U20 team, just before the WJC. Laine's slapshot was measured 155 kph (about 96 mph). Pulju was in fact the winner with 158 kph (about 98 mph) and Saarela was third with 150 kph (about 93 mph). I think these are pretty hard slapshots for the age that these guys are. Will be great to see how much they can even develop their shots still.

Age-adjusted he's producing on par with Matthews, if not more.

I'd be curious what there one timer speeds are
Edit:
I know they don't measure it but I'd lov to see it. Laine can rip it if the puck is anywhere near him
I'm not an expert in physics, but I believe the one timer speed would be around the same or a little bit slower than a regular slap shot.

Yes but every player is different and I personally believe laine is like ovechkin where their one timer is like 99 percent as hard as their standstill/radar gun style shots.
Hey guys how do you pronounce his name. I thought it used to be Laine as in No pain for Laine. But I found out that's wrong

Lie-NE
Or Lie-Neh. The announcer says the name a few times on the video a couple of posts up.
5 game point streak and 5+3 in those games.So, 33 games and 26 points and a 7 game point streak I guess..?
