Urho Vaakanainen and Nikolas Matinpalo were on the ice during three Canadian goals.
The match against Canada was, in the light of the statistics Nikolas Matinpalo–Bravery.
The duo received the least time of playing in Finland’s defenders but was on the ice three times in the first four goals of Canada. Both plus minus statistics were read -3.
Canadian head coach Jon Cooper Defended the defenders who were muted anonymous even before the tournament.
– I’m not coaching their team. Finland is a really good team. Maybe it is happiness too. I coach Ryan McDonaugh’s on the club team. Usually he has +4 but in a random game he can have -4. And he is the star of the defense game. Sometimes it happens. Probably a little coincidence, Cooper said.
– Sometimes the puck just goes in and it is deep. Today I probably felt a little compassion for those guys, but I can’t say it happened because they were on the ice.
In the light of the statistics, Nikolas Matinpalo and Urho Vaakanainen’s game was scary. Aop
Cooper boasted that Canada played a really good game against Finland.
– The team has the best players in the world doing things for the team they are not used to.
From the Lions final, Cooper did not want to draw its bigger conclusions, but turned it into a joke.
– The goal was to get to the finals on Thursday. At least we got good video footage with five play against six, Cooper said, laughing at North American journalists.
Lions head coach Antti Pennanen Hope woke up to the flames during Kiri.
– I strongly believed we would level the game. The pressure was in Canada, Pennanen said.
In the case of attackers, criticism in the Lion is particularly directed Sebastian Ahoon and To Roope Hintz.
– Probably they as ambitious players want better. But they care about the team and wanted to work. Going to my peak. I should have been better able to help them. They care and their work ethic is tough, Pennanen said.
