Just read a comment from the Finnish head coach saying he expects strong play in front of the net from Olli Jokinen. In other words, he somehow sees one of Jokinen's big weaknesses with Calgary as his major strength.
I'd love for Finland to surprise again, but something doesn't feel right this year. I'm not sure that coach knows his players. The point is the only sensible place for Jokinen on the PP, and now he'll be exactly where he shouldn't, creating some of the worst screens in the Olympics.
Just a minor thing, but doesn't fill me with confidence.
