Canada probably cannot defeat Finland.

[StCapps]

Canada probably cannot defeat Finland.

Well, the Fins do have five first round picks from last year on their blueline:
Heiskanen, Välimäki, Juolevi, Vaakanainen and Jokiharju. That's what I call a stacked D-core.

So they are no slouches, not an easy win by any means. Would suck to lose to those Finnish Pogue's though, can't let ssu have the satisfaction.

[Speaker to Animals]

Finns are naturally superior to Canadians.

[StCapps]

Finns are naturally superior to Canadians.

Not at hockey, but it is the Finnish golden age, so they are more competitive than usual. Don't sleep on the Fins, especially with that defense.

Fuq is this sport?

Where are you seeing this Sweden game? I'm not seeing it on the tv guide.

It's not on TV, you got to stream it if you want to watch it. As for the schedule, I am viewing it here.

[Smitty-48]

One wonders how far Svechnikov will fall in the draft due to the Russian factor, he's coming off wrist surgery, so this tournament is his make or break, if he doesn't light it up, could fall quite a ways.
