Finland has found its defensive game. Plenty of time left though.

Sweden with a wretched performance since the 1st period. Just awful

Have to give Finland credit too defensively

Good night... Sweden lost this all on their own in the second, Finland did a good job suffocating in the 3rd. Really didn't think they had it in them.

Need to avoid taking too many stupid penalties though. Like Kempe just did.
um...

I can't cheer for Russia, no matter how much I loathe Ron Wilson.

it's weird, but I actually don't mind russia. I like high speed/skill, and no defense.

But I figure they'll lose to the US anyway...and so will the Finns.

Puljujarvi looked huge standing next to Teemu. I realize he's on skates and Teemu isn't but still he was towering over him. Figure he gotta be 6'3 or 6'4.
