Im actually amazed that Wings scouting hasnt discovered finnish goalies yet since there is so many of them compared to amount of swedish goalies, Liv would be a backup goalie in finnish league. Even Tim Thomas came to finnish league to develop himself and he's pretty damn good now... ...just wondering...

Thanks for the good job M

Vermette from the Sens if theres any money left after our own players.

About 120mins...

or... "Malkin's lazy and he sucks"

What are the chances of avs making the playoffs next season? Slim, none or negative?

Finnishing above swedes in any tournament is considered a success in finland, right?

Even more importantly, no Niinimaa passing the puck to swedish players like he did in nagano.

Im actually amazed by the russians, they played as a team, must be the first time since they played as "soviet union" canucks will be in trouble if they play that way in the finals too. Good luck russkies.

Great clips, Vladdy was brilliant hitter.

im sure that Schneider and Bitchtuzzi love the golf courses in anaheim.

and so is selänne!

WTF are canucks doing??? and Getzlaf is still a motherf----r!!!!!

woohoo! Pillu Pihlström scores... under review? why?

Outside of Selänne, the skill in scoring goals drops off dramatically, the finnish talent mainly excels in defensive side of the game, specially between the pipes, Kipper, Bäckström, Toskala and few others waiting for their opportunity. Defence is good at keeping their own end clean, only a few that can are good at PP. I wish that finnish junior coaches would wake up and try to develop the creative forwards too.

And getting the penalties too easily.

Nice call by the russian ref, he didnt even see OJ's hit, what a wanker...

http://www.thefourthperiod.com/news/col080510.html With the Avalanche parting ways with bench boss Joel Quenneville, there have been rumblings suggesting the team could bring back Patrick Roy to coach the team. Roy told the Montreal Gazette he would be interested in an NHL job, but the paper claims he's committed to his job as coach and GM of the Quebec Remparts of the QMJHL. Roy is believed to be among candidates to take over as Colorado's next head coach, along with Pat Burns and Paul Maurice, who was fired this week by the Toronto Maple Leafs. Roy has no NHL coaching experience, but he has led the Remparts to a Memorial Cup. ----------------- I cant believe that they are even considering giving Patty a coaching job, but then again, wasnt Granato avs coach at one time? Of all the coaches in the planet, Granato and now... Roy? insane...

Best player of the regular series, players choise for mvp of the league and an all star player of 2008 season. his 77pt season in 55 games (28+49) is the new record in the finnish league, in 14 playoff games he got 19pts (8+11)

Leino can and will score.

Wings plan to sign Ville Leino? he's a really shifty player

With Montreal out of the playoffs, Finland might have Koivu brothers on the lineup, defence isnt looking really hot, but thank goodness that crybaby Niinimaa is out with a injury.

The way Avs defense was playing in games 1 & 2 putting Theo or Budaj in the net doesnt really matter either way. But i wonder what kind of boost having Petter Forskin back in the lineup, maybe he wants a rematch with McCarty???

http://www.spectorshockey.net/ WASHINGTON POST: Tarik El-Bashir reports it's possible that Cristobal Huet, an unrestricted free agent this summer, may have played his final game with the Capitals, but there's no question as to Olaf Kolzig's future, as he removed the name plate from his locker stall and declined to speak to reporters. Would he sign with Wings? or would Holland even consider him? But i'm happy with Osgood & Howard combo for nxt season.

And you forgot that every player in the nhl wants to play for the almighty leafs!!! And i forgot the followup question to my original post, expect Olie to sign somewhere else or will he resign?
