[K-9]

Cozens with a rip on the PP. 1-0 Canada

[Norcal]

Dangit just tuned in for the interview with Sabres stud Dylan Cozens but missed the first two periods, sad.

Crap refereeing. Heiskanen hits himself in the face and Sillinger called for a high stick.

Edit: and Finland score on the 5 on 3 pp.

That penalty call was egregious and now the back up goalie enters the game?

Sillinger will be heard from before its over I'm betting

[steveoath]

Driedger looks to have pulled a hammy or his groin. All down to having been moved side to side on the 5 on 3. Real shame if that call decides the game.

 

 

Oh dear. Granlund with his 2nd.

Oof. That was a rocket from Armia. Big goal.

[K-9]

The Finnish home crowd is awesome. 

[steveoath]

Whitecloud scores to give canada 2 mins to equalise. Under review though.

Dude with Finland flag face paint and blue Minnie mouse ears is bringing the fire.

[steveoath]

My oh my. This period has been amazing!

Comtois with the equaliser. 

[K-9]

What a game!

[Norcal]

Ohhhhhh lets GO!!

[steveoath]

Thought Dylan was going to win it there. 

[Norcal]

OT. Cozens tried to end it

[steveoath]

It's all too intense for doggo

 

[steveoath]

***** to be decided on OT pp, when arguably both players should've been in the box. Tompkins lateral movement is terrible though and Finland knew it.

Tompkins plays in the finnish leagues.

It's unfortunate he even had to play in this game. 

Its frickin ridiculous that the game and tournament was decided by the referees, schmucks.

I wonder if Jokiharju gets a gold even though he never got to play due to COViD 

[bunomatic]

Cozens had a great tourny. That official should never work a big tournament again. Not sour grapes, just reality. Maybe next year.

I'm at an arena for my son and just heard all Finns singing "We Are The Champions" as the music is pumped into the arena. Obviously the ceremony was all preplanned, but it seems a little low end under the circumstances.

And the party won't stop for a while they say.

Great tournament for Canada and Cozens. Almost the immaculate comeback but that ref my oh my.

Watching Tompkins play net makes me angry all over again about Levi and the Olympics

Dahlin has already arrived but let’s hope this was a big springboard for Cozens and Asplund to pull“A Tage” next year.

Awesome to see Cozens succeed.  He's played a very unselfish game this year, and I saw a lot of growth especially from March 1st to the end of the season.  He's a stellar player going forward.

Did everyone catch that interview though? Asked about his goal, he talked about the great pass from Barzal. Asked about his play in the tourney he gave all the credit to his line mates. Not a single word about himself. How it should be! We can dub him the anti-Eichel. or in the terminology of Shorsey, "what a beauty." I will say it again, slap a letter on that boy's jersey!

Good game, refs sucked, goalie injury probably sunk them more though. Good effort though, good game, and Cozens! Hurts to lose I'm sure, but in time, silver medal ain't nothing and it's still a solid accomplishment they can be proud of.
