wow wow wow ! this was such huge thriller that ended by a incredibly weird Goaltending performance in the penalty shootouts session.

Denmark was leading 2-0 some 12 minutes to go, but then 2 their players were send to the penalty box and Belarus scored in both powerplays, including a very nice tic tac toe goal in the two mans advantage. so the match ended by 2-2, in the Overtime Belarus survived the entire 2 minutes Danes power play to put the match to the shoot-outs, but there had to submit to the opponent conceding 4 Goals from 5 attempts !!!  Denmark won the series 2-0 and send Belarus back to Division I A

 

Congrats Denmark

I don't know, but it's originally a traditional greek song from the island of Kalymnos (Checked Wikipedia xd )

That's just the finnish version

Sweden for Gold
Canada for Silver
USA for Bronze

That's my prediction. But Sweden's WJC finals performance is rather aweful with 9 losses out of 12
