SaraPepparkaka Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 (edited) Hmm. Girls game night. For THAT, I could also watch hockey. Edited April 29, 2009 by SaraPepparkaka Quote
frankie Posted April 29, 2009 Author Posted April 29, 2009 In Finland we have this thing called Kisastudio. Usually me and my friend do that with the realityshows we watch but it's good for ice hockey too! Unfortunately my ice hockey loving friend's outta town but hey, as long as there's the thread on BCF, there's hope. Quote
frankie Posted April 29, 2009 Author Posted April 29, 2009 (edited) I just remembered the game's already started, Finland vs. the Czech Republic and I watched it for like 1 minute and then out of nowhere Finland made the first goal!! Edit: And it took like 1-2 minute afther that for the Czechs to score a goal Edited April 29, 2009 by frankie Quote
SaraPepparkaka Posted April 29, 2009 Posted April 29, 2009 I'll rely on you Frankie to give me the details. Quote
frankie Posted April 29, 2009 Author Posted April 29, 2009 (edited) Here's some more details, Czechs scored another one already 2-1. Very unpleasant details. Edit: 2nd period, 3 minutes into the game and it's 3-1. No comments. Edit: About 1 minute later Finland scores!!! 3-2 to Czechs. Go Finland!! Edit: What's wrong with Czechs's Roman Polak and his fists? Two penalties already, he seems to have ants in his pants. Edit: 3-3!!!!! Finland evens the score!! Edit: Don't you just hate Jarkko Ruutu? The dude indirectly admits to the Finnish cameras that he faked his little "injury" and so got the other dude to get the penalty. And smirks about it!! He should take his hockey elsewhere, I do not accept this Edit: FINLAND SCORESSSSS!!! 4-3!!! 8 minutes left! Edit: OMG I cannot believe we really won!!! 4-3!!! Happy birthday Kapanen, 2+2!

ArthurDent Posted April 30, 2009 Posted April 30, 2009 I'm going with canada as usual (Lived there for 5 years). I was really into hockey while living there (Ottawa Senators is my team), but in Israel there is close to no hockey and due to time zone related issues, I'm having big problems following it... Quote
frankie Posted May 1, 2009 Author Posted May 1, 2009 Today's another gamenight! The game starts a little after 9 pm, unfortunately I have no idea who we're up against. Quote
Guest ii Posted May 1, 2009 Posted May 1, 2009 Slovakia. Germany's an embarrassment. AND they can't be eliminated, that's so unfair! They don't deserve the spot in the Champs with the way they're playing right now. Quote
frankie Posted May 2, 2009 Author Posted May 2, 2009 Slovakia. Germany's an embarrassment. AND they can't be eliminated, that's so unfair! They don't deserve the spot in the Champs with the way they're playing right now. Agreed! Today it's the Czechs vr Slovakia and Finland vs Belarus. Quote
Guest ii Posted May 2, 2009 Posted May 2, 2009 (edited) Czechs weren't impressive, Slovakia's as bad as everyone suspected... I'm telling you, it's Canada and Russia in the final, Sweden and either USA or Finland in the bronze game. Edited May 2, 2009 by ii typos Quote
SaraPepparkaka Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 Sounds about right to me too. Canada will win. Unfortunately. Quote
frankie Posted May 4, 2009 Author Posted May 4, 2009 Your guesses depress me They may be realistic but that doesn't help at all. I'll hope for a tie at least, if Finland doesn't win Quote
Guest ii Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 I say 7-3 Canada (Sorry ladies!) 7??? no no no. Finland has a world-class goalie. And it's not Belarus, for heaven's sake! I'm betting they'll lose, but have some respect, Ceinwenn. 7 is just insulting. Quote
frankie Posted May 4, 2009 Author Posted May 4, 2009 (edited) Finland's scored the 2 goals already!! Edit: 10 minutes left, 3-3. This is nerve wrecking!!! Whatever the outcome, it's been a really good game. Edit: It was still 3-3 in the end, then we went to overtime, no result, then the penalty shootout (is that English? My sports jargon is not quite up to date...) and Finland did win the game, but Canada got the group victory, Finland is second. Edited May 4, 2009 by frankie Quote
SaraPepparkaka Posted May 5, 2009 Posted May 5, 2009 Oh wow, Finland DID win. I even had the TV on in the background when reading yesterday night. Quote
frankie Posted May 5, 2009 Author Posted May 5, 2009 Yep, although the winning didn't feel as great as it normally would've done because we came in second in the group thingie. But, beating Canada only means that we _do_ have what it takes to win the championship, in my opinion. I'm eagerly waiting for the rest of the games. Quote
frankie Posted May 10, 2009 Author Posted May 10, 2009 Well USA beat us on Wednesday and I was so down about it I didn't even feel like posting on this thread. I haven't followed any of the other games after that and didn't even know which countries were going to the finals. I just saw some of the ceremonies for the team who won the bronze medals, so it seems like Sweden beat USA. Good job Sweden and thank you for not letting USA win you guys I think Russia and Canada are playing for gold in a couple of hours. Anyone watching? Ceinwenn, are you able to see the game? Quote
