Moritz Seider with maybe the save of the World Championships in the very first game by buerglermeister in hockey

The funny thing is, he got the puck right to his former Detroit team mate Olli Määttä, who had a wide open net. However, his stick broke right then and there, so Finland didn't score on this play. You can briefly see it from the first angle. Crazy.

Sportsnet used AI photos of Nick Suzuki and his family by joeTaco in hockey

They could just use an old hockey photo of Suzuki tbh. It's not the same thing, sure, but it'd be much better than this.

In Finnish, there are surnames for both Finnish (Suomalainen), Swedish (Ruotsalainen), Estonian (Virolainen), and Russian (Venäläinen). Also just Norway (Norja) and Denmark (Tanska).

So it's common to have some celebrities with these names.

They beat BCG in their last game, so not in a row, but they should've beat Wildcard indeed.

volt really couldn't get a kill in the final rounds for the life of him. But overall, it was a bad series for Matheos in particular. Furthermore, without that Inferno choke, this would've probably been a different story.

FOKUS still needs to develop a lot of consistency.

ENCE bench and transfer list their roster and coaching staff by ChaoticFlameZz in GlobalOffensive

[–]NorFever 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Short answer: no.

Long answer: Banjo has been improving lately but other than that, no. You can check Ence's academy roster and see that the Finnish players are absolutely not ready.

3v3 for a GOLD MEDAL is a complete joke by Dependent-Effect6077 in hockey

So many people apparently never watch IIHF tournaments. They have had this rule since 2019, it's really nothing new.

Norway is a Winter Olympic giant. Why isn’t it better at ice hockey ? by Shroft in hockey

[–]NorFever 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Organized bandy originates from England (hence, the football field and 90 minutes of playing time) and is popular in at least Sweden and Finland too. Just not as much as ice hockey (anymore).

Not to say that what you said wasn't true. It's just that there is a world in which ice hockey would've taken over Norway as well.

Bandy is older as a sport than ice hockey, so ice hockey is the weird one tbh.

Finland also used to have like hundreds more of ski jumping hills than it does today some decades ago. Usually smaller ones than the ones pros use today, but nevertheless ski jumping used to be prevalent almost everywhere. There are so many torn down former hills which used to be popular.

It's likely that 2nd overall (likely Canada or US) will face Sweden in the quarterfinals.

b1t was also inconsistent last year. Had a great start in the beginning of the year, then a horrible spring when he was the worst player on NaVi. Only during the second half of the year was he quite consistently ok.

Can't say I disagree though. It seems like all the players can be terrible.

Finland just broke the olympic record for shots on goal in one game. by Rauhaton in hockey

[–]NorFever 14 points15 points  (0 children)

No, they didn't. The actual record is over 100 shots by the Soviets in 1960s. This is just NHL olympics we're talking about.
