According to world champion Timo Jutila, Tappara and TPS offered fans an exciting final series.
- Juti encourages people to enjoy a wonderful puck spring.
- The puck legend praises Christian Heljanko and Andrej Karejev.
Lion legend Timo Jutila known as a tough sauna man. During his active career, Jutila also made it to the championship foundations many times.
The strong defender was involved in winning Finland’s first world championship in 1995.
In addition, the Tampere prize cabinet includes five Finnish championships and the Swiss championship from the spring of 1997.
So Juti has Nazis to guide Tappara’s fresh masters in the festive trees.
– More steam. Worth enjoying, quite rightly so.
Boom annealing
According to Timo Jutila, Tappara played rugged hockey in the final series. TIMO KUNNARI
There is a hard disk rumble that lasts all spring in Finland. Tampere is the center of the hustle and bustle.
– What a puck boom we have after the corona and other nasty things. I raise my hat for players and clubs. They pulled for a long time without an audience, there were certainly difficulties. They cycled through it all.
There are other big worries in the world now.
– In the middle of all this, he first came to Finland for Olympic gold. Then there is the new Nokia arena plus a big boogie on site here in Tampere. We also remember Turku’s amazing atmosphere and audience.
– And two more weeks and then the puck falls on the ice at home races. Then Finland is the center of puck people. Now it’s worth enjoying, 58-year-old Juti recharges.
A rude game

In the final series, TPS’s young team challenged Tappara’s experienced fiddlers. Tappara took the pot 4-1 to win the match.
– Tappara was playing a rude game. Everyone on the team internalized it.
Only four goals were scored for the ax breast in five games.
– It’s nothing more than a win. How the Kits and the whole team defended. The team raised its level throughout the playoffs. And they kept TPS’s special skills in check, Jutila ponders.
– TPS has been in the finals for the last two seasons. There are a lot of my own puppies involved. It will kick off the future.
Great goalkeepers
Special mention legend Jutila gives Tappara goalkeeper Christian Heljangolleand for a reason.
Posia is also enough for TPS goalkeeper Andrej Karejeville.
– Karejev was great, he had a fantastic whole season. In the faulty final, the man was on his roof, but still fought from there.
– The goal of the goalkeepers was this final. Both were great.
Judges asleep
The final series saw special events this spring as well. TPS got into the opening game without his five frame strikers. The flu pulled the men out of the lineup.
Tappara made three of his eight final goals through the equipment of TPS players.
In the fifth and decisive final, a judge duo Mikko Kaukokari – Jukka-Pekka Koistinen slept worse once.
In the puck before the winning goal Joona Luodon the club clicked Aleksi Anttalaista face, which the TPS defender also showed with a gesture. The jury did not react to the high racket.
At the end Juuso Pärssinen received 2 + 10 minutes from tackling on the head or neck area. That judgment was laughed at in Tapparanki’s barn. It was a verdict against the line and spirit of a match or series of matches.
Koistinen shouted TPS unprofessionally in the third final game Markus Nurmelle. The judge’s outburst was revealed in CMore’s broadcast.
The judges did not decide the address of the canister, but too many Taklaus, who hit the head, missed the striped shirts in the final series. Both teams were to blame for the head-on attacks.
The transverse one was allowed to use sorrow, and the felling was at times quite ugly.
After the series, Tappara’s section has still succumbed to TPS and local opponent Ilves.
Despite everything, Tappara is now celebrating a long May Day.
Tappara of all time?
According to Jutila, two men from Tappara deserve an invitation to the Finnish World Cup team. No one from TPS.
– Veli-Matti Savinainen and Otto Leskinen. There is a positive problem under the leadership of the Lions. There is intrusion on the team.
Coach legend Rauno Korpi said during the final series that there may have been an all-time Tappara team.
Juti is a little hesitant.
– It’s hard to say this now. Teams from different decades are so hard to compare. Each team has its own story, says a killing legend celebrating May Day in Kittilä.
