Olympic Hockey: FIN-CAN on sunday ?

As before, how do you see this game is going to be ?


Finland surely starts as underdogs, but lets hear how you see it...

I'm expecting tough fight. My heart is with Finland of course, and I'm sure we'll win.

my heart is with our team as well. i'd be happy if we could come up with a tie: 3-3

Hmm, guessing the scores. Let's say, Fin-Can 4-3

Our goalkeeper is on fire, all the goals in yesterday's game was taken by superior manpower. One or two of our guys were in the penaltybox. Canada has to play hard against us.

i haven't been near the TV to see any of the games. Who is playing goal for you guys? i was sorry that the Kipper decided not to go. Finland is truly the land fielding the best goalies in the world right now.

we'll be having Antero Niittymäki as today's goalie:

he played an excellent game against Czech's last night.

Yeah that game did my heart good! i have no patience for the Czechs. Don't get me wrong, i love Hasek and respect Volkoun a lot, but it's chumps like Jagr and particularly Rucinsky that ruin them for me. Rucinsky has the gaul to talk smack about Canadian hockey when he played his junior hockey here.

Well, Canada is coming off of a loss and are going to play hard.

I'm going for Finland cuz they're underdogs and I like TIMONEN Kimmo, SELÄNNE Teemu, and NUMMINEN Teppo.
It would also be nice to see other teams besides Canada and Czech Republic going for gold.

I won't make any predictions other than it should be a pretty good, close game.

Don't forget to mention Olli Jokinen and Saku Koivu. Such a clever goal yesterday.

Best of luck to all. It has been an Olympics of upsets and it is gut check time. i was away coaching this weekend and saw it in my kids too. You have to play hungry to win. We'll see who is hungry tonight.

well, Canadiens have a very impressive name-list; especially Heatley-Iginla and Sakic.

not to mention an excellent goalie Martin Brodeur. our guys need the best of luck, but maybe canucks are not awake enough at this point of he tournament...

Well, they will get lambasted back home if the don't produce, so hopefully they will take that as a bit more incentive to win. Personally i think we should go back to amateur players, but this time across the board, no country sending pros.

It has begun. Let's take this thread upper.

I hope Fin has a good game, but I think Can will win. Good luck to both - play tough

1:0 for Finland.
