Roby Jarventie hat trick incoming

Nice Stretch pass from Locmelis to Vilmanis. Couldn’t finish it but good to see

It’s also coming to Moncton, best believe me and my paps will watch a couple of games.

Kemell is a beast, I'm still surprised that he fell all the way to 17 OA. NSH got a terrific player/absolute steal.

You knew it was coming...

Jarventie on the right flank with the primary assist 😍

Having a 1-2 punch of Norris/Jarventie on that flank on the PP would be awesome. Especially because it distracts from DeBrincat on the other side.

HRK line for Finland putting in some work love it

Man Roni Hirovinen really is impressing me more and more. His puck guarding skills and passes have been so good to bad for the crossbar lul as that would have been a highlight feed for Niemela's supposed goal

Klavs Veinbergs (F, Latvia) apparently was the 2nd-last pick of this past draft (7th round, 31st pick) when the Lightning selected him 224th overall. And now he has Latvia's first goal of the WJC. #Let'sGoLightning

Raty #1 in a re-draft 🤔

11 points for that line in one game

4 for Kemell, 4 for Raty, 3 for Hirvonen. Heck of a line.

Would have been 4 for Hirv if it wasnt for the crossbar dammit lul

I totally forgot about the WJC

I mean they played Latvia, is it really that surprising that they did good

Cossa, not Garand, starting for Canada tomorrow

Dave Cameron says Sebastian Cossa (DET) will start tomorrow for Canada. A bit of a surprise. There was a time in December where he looked like he might be the No. 3 guy. Belief then was that it was Dylan Garand’s net to lose and then Garand won CHL Goalie of the Year.

In general Raty and Hirovonen have always impressed no matter who they faced remember 2021 Finland U20 (International-Jr)

Both guys combined for 35 points in 11 games good times

And finally they got a RW that can keep up

So the high point totals was pretty much to be expected. Probs will see all 3 combine for 20+ points

Awww...USA WJC 2022 Captain Brock Faber as a kid

That whole top line was great for Finland, but Hirvonen was unreal in that game. Aside from the points he did have, there were like 3 or 4 other legitimate dangerous chances that he was the driving factor in creating. Yes, it's Lativa, but still. They were clicking.

Jarventie I found weird. It seemed like he caught my attention a lot, but it always seemed to lead to not much outside of that PP assist.

Niemela was shaky to start, but settled in eventually - don't love the way he was deployed and had an absolute scrub of a partner.

Mbereko in net for the USA-LET'S GO

why isn’t Luca Munzenberger playing

Injured.

Matt Knies is absolutely flying early on, the USA look good if a bit raw and out of sync. Germans are clobbering the US bodies along the wall though.

Germanies goalie is a Jedi as how the **** did he keep that puck out lul
