Ville Pokka has come a long way with Jukka Jalonen.

It was therefore surprising that Pokka was the one who made room for the lineup. After the Dallas Stars Esa Lindell and Miro Heiskanen joined, the Lions returned to the familiar play of four pairs of packs.

Pokka fell into the so-called pop auditorium, Niklas Friman and Mikael Seppälä continued in the pakistani.

Jalonen admired the entry of the Dallas men into the team.

– Great to see how humble they are about everything. Someone could come with those abilities to even bulge the chest rotting. They really won’t come, Jalonen reminded.

Is it worth drawing definitive conclusions from this?

– There’s nothing locked. Let’s see what tomorrow brings when it comes. Jukka decides, Seppälä stated after a 6–0 crush victory.

The Tappara defender got to enjoy the Friday afternoon as a couple of Heiskanen. Heiskanen at least conquered the hearts of the lioness with his performance. The NHL star, which has dominated the field almost alone in places, is an infinitely strong reinforcement to this level.

– It was pretty easy. All you have to do is put the puck on a friend, and he’ll take care of it on the attacking head, Seppälä whispered to Heiskanen’s grip.

Eliminating Poka, the Olympic champion and world champion, would undoubtedly be a tough trick, even though Seppälä has a very great season behind him. They are very similar players: strong bones in their own heads.

– I went to the race so I want to play until the end. Let’s fight nails and teeth, Seppälä said about the competitive situation.

Is anything changing?

The new game is coming soon. Head coach in the Austria fight on Saturday Jukka Jalosen there is again the opportunity to rotate the compositions and find the perfect balance.

So if it hasn’t been found yet.

– I’m not going to throw the lineups. It may be that we continue like this or not, Jalonen acknowledged the package.

Positive problems are also brought by Friman, who again played a very intact match. In addition, nice 1 + 1 surfaces grabbed the statistics.

– Every game I get to play is an amazing thing. I don’t think too much ahead, Friman, who brought the Olympic gold medal to Tampere.

Lindell was spared

Miro Heiskanen immediately dazzled. Jussi Saarinen

After two sets, Heiskanen was on the move for 21 minutes, but the final ice time was just over 19 minutes.

In contrast, Lindell played just 14 minutes and 41 seconds. Atte Ohtamaa The pair of luggage arrived on the Lions’ trip only on Thursday afternoon, so the travel strain would be a natural explanation for the lack of playing time.

The final readings could have been even higher. So many places for Lions were created.

Still, Jalonen seemed very pleased with the team’s game look for the entire tournament.

– A rude game from us. I am happy with almost everything. We did not allow the British to return.

– Small filings have to be done, but we are on schedule.

Esa Lindellin’s (middle) minutes were still small. Jussi Saarinen
