miksteri 55 Report post Posted May 12, 2015 Pekka Rinne is an outstanding goaltender. He basically won the game single-handedly. How did you like the refs in that game? same guy fkd the finns last years games too... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ekmanc 586 Report post Posted May 12, 2015 Finland wins russia on shootout, even blind swedish refs could not help russkies to win... I hope russkies destroy sweden in the playoffs! A fin who supports the russians? that's almost close to treason isn't it... Canada should have a pretty straight shot to the Finals now, the other side is more open.

jimmyemeryhunter 2,747 Report post Posted May 12, 2015 And Tatar is an nhl player. Wow. No wonder Babs and Holland are so high on him. If mantha can become what we all hoped and expected that will be a deadly combination for a long time, my mouth waters at the thought of mantha dylark bertuzziMantha just needs to adjust to the pro leagues, bertuzzi keeps surprising everywhere he goes.But damn, Am I ever excited for Larkin. He's gonna be a good one. 1 amato reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's gonna be a good one. Have you watched him in this tournament? He's pretty much invisible. Eichel is getting all of the attention. How did you like the refs in that game? same guy fkd the finns last years games too... The refs had something against the Finns for sure...reminded me of the Wings always getting screwed by the refs.

amato 3,210 Report post Posted May 13, 2015 roster? Canada goalie sucks, and there defense is decent - good. The forwards are what make the team win. Hopefully Montreal goes out and Price comes over. When you're putting up 7 goals a game, you can get by with a lackluster goalie. And their defense is better than any other roster I've seen in the tournament..? At least on paper anyway.... USA might be the closest one? Isn't Eichel playing 4th line center? Pretty sure Larkin has been top2 lines all tournament. Guess doom n gloomers go as far as the worlds these days I don't know if it's been the same all tournament long so far (probably?) but at least for the last game, eichel was listed on the third line and larkin on the fourth. http://www.iihfworlds2015.com/en/games/2015-05-12/USA-vs-SVK/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

amato 3,210 Report post Posted May 14, 2015 (edited) did you really expect belarus to put up much of a fight against canada? Americans win 3-1.. canada up 6-0 after two. and Ovi is joining team Russia immediately. Huge boost for them obv. edit: ovi is only joining them starting in the semi final, if they make it past sweden so, go sweden haha should be a good couple of games coming up Edited May 14, 2015 by amato Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

evilmrt 636 Report post Posted May 16, 2015 US outmatched...Russia wins 4-0 and US goes to Bronze game vs Czechs. Larkin played well...good chances and some flashes of brilliance especially considering the team he was playing against. Also at least one boneheaded penalty that lead to a Russian goal...but hes a kid so whatever. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ekmanc 586 Report post Posted May 16, 2015 I think the US team more than held their own against Russia, it felt like whoever scored the first goal was gonna win this one and US just didn't have enough legitimate scoring threats on their team. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For instance...what was Howard so busy with? Crying over losing the #1 spot on the Wings? He would have been the starter for USA. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
