This is going to be a great finish. BBC is already calling it for Finland, but I don't know just yet.

Dewey wins!

Good stick by Maatta on Geno.

Holy doodle, great save by Bob on Jussi Jokinen.

Am I reading this box score right? No shots on the last Fin PP?

[quoipourquoi]

Don't tell me he caught that.

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Why did they start Varlamov again????

Man, you don't see Dats get chippy like that very often.

 

[hokiehi21]

Man that Russian defense looks like the Caps defense. Bob comin up huge. He shoulda started.

 

[quoipourquoi]

High stick. Nothing is going right...

 

[Darkstone42]

Imagine if this Bob guy had been in the net for Russia all game...

 

[dare2be]

5 shots faced by Bob since entering...Russia tightened up their D? (hahahahha) or FIN sitting back?


edit: ok, 7 now

 

[hokiehi21]

Nice pass OV haha

Leo Komarov reminds me of Ville Nieminen with the way he has played today.

 

[quoipourquoi]

Great commitment to defense by Finland's top line.

Imagine if this Bob guy had been in the net for Russia all game...

That's crazy talk, DS, why would you want to start the reigning Vezina Trophy winner?
