FINALLY A WIN! 

QUATERFINALS AGAINST JAPAN! GOD DAMN IT   Seriously, they've been so good.

Finland will play with masks on against ROC in less than 2 hours...
He's the offical tweet about it.

First it was Canada who played with masks against ROC, now Finland. I just hope that this won't happen on Men's tournament...

Really disappointing to see Finland fall on it's face during this tournament, pre-pandemic it really seemed like they were catching up (and tbh they are the rightful winner of the 2019 worlds).

 

and have a brutal arms race with each other, and it seems almost impossible for anyone else to keep up.

The pain everytime someone even mentions the 2019 worlds... xd

All the blame falls to Mustonen according to the finnish hockey fans. It was too obvious, that Mustonen was upset to Räty about something. There really wasn't any good reasons not to select her to the roster. And the sudden family crisis & departure back to Finland while Toivola became our next head coach way too soon... That didn't help either.

Against Switzerland... well, they scored their goals during powerplay...  Finland just needs to get it's shit together against ROC. No stupid penalties.

Holy shit, those power rankings are killing me 

China's though...

 Sweden have it’s first GM in NHL . His name is Patrik Allvin. He’s the new GM for Vancouver Canucks.

Out of every team, Canucks just seems to be the right one   So many swedes there, past & present

He's now 2nd GM from the nordic countries, right? 2nd from Europe, i reckon.

One of the weakest Olympic tournament for Finland...

Räty getting left out, Mustonen forced to leave due to family...


Oh dear...

Let's go Niskanen! Already a medal & that's not even his main event! 

Our most likely Captain Marko Anttila is still in isolation... 

He had COVID like 2 weeks ago, but he needs CT-values to be above 40 for 2 days in a row or above 35 for 3 days in a row. Testing happens every 24 hours.


What's even better? Chief Physician of Olympic Team Finland even said, that there's no medical reasons to keep him isolated anymore... This is very annoying. He's pretty much our best 4th liner & a beast while team is short-handed. 

We can kick Canada's ass on Men's hockey. Why can't we do it on Women's(Okay, 2 wins over CAN but still)? We seriously need to change something. Like we should allow Women's team to practice with multiple U20/U18 teams.

Also we need to switch up the coaching, which we did a bit too soon (Truly hope that everything's ok with Mustonen & his family.)
New head coach, new way to play hockey.

Finland's coach had to leave home due to a family emergency, so the Fins might not be fully in it today

I guess that's one excuse...

Just now, Jan Linha said:

What the hell is going on? Does have a limit? Or their level uncreased so much or level of other teams has dropped? They defeated 12:1, team that won bronze in Sochi. Now, leading already 7:1 against Finland, bronze medalist from Pyeongchang and more than 20 mins to go ....

Literally nobody's surprised how strong Canada is. Our Team is in the same exact position where Men's national team was a few decades ago.

We're still searching for a way to beat Canada & US. In the same tournament.
