The hockey legend stepped on MTV’s narrative legend Antero Mertaranta for an interview before Wednesday’s SaiPa semi-finals.
– It is known that supporters are waiting and the people are waiting for the jug to be lifted again. The trip is long, but does the team believe tough? Mertaranta asked Peltonen.
– Noo Antsa, now peace, peace. We humbly go one step at a time, Peltonen replied kindly.
HIFK finished fourth in the regular season. SaiPa was fifth behind HIFK and finished his way to the quarter -finals by pouring TPS in the opening round of the playoffs.
Mertaranta and Peltonen laughed at the coach’s “receipt”, after which the speech turned into the upcoming series.
– Hard challenge. Our diligence and a certain kind of wisdom. SaiPa’s game has been very steady throughout the season – hard work. There will be a great series. We have a tough opponent, Peltonen predicts.
There is plenty of common history at Peltonen and Mertaranta. Already in 1995, Mertaranta explained when Peltonen forged a hat trick to the Swedish network in the World Cup final.
