– Superiority was not right today. If there are so many minutes of superiority, then it should be duller. Today was not the best day by far. It needs to be improved. admitted Joakim Kemell directly.

Canada also hogged. to Will Cuy drove really badly Juuso Mäenpäätä kneel and went out the big doors. Fortunately, KalPa’s attacker was not injured in the ominous situation.

Kemell thrives in intense games against North Americans.

– They play a physical game, but it ignites when you get to scramble and tackle. I enjoy these games just fine.

Kemell has scored nine power points in four games and is at the top of the tournament’s points market.

“The right numbers”

Striker Oliver Kapanen enjoyed the game calmly.

– The numbers pretty much tell the truth about this game. We got off to a good start, we were ready. We then had a couple of weak periods and couldn’t play our own game. We had a couple of sleepovers, and Canada hit effectively.

The second-generation player thrives in the atmosphere of Rogers Place.

– It was cool to play again. There was more of an audience and there was an atmosphere. It’s always nice to play against Canada. The game was by no means dirty or over-the-top. Stay together, Kapanen said
