Ice Hockey World Championchip: sensation

[Skybird]

Germany beats Russia 2:0.

Wowh!

Or is it just Ooopsala? Next matches will show.

First German victory in over 30 matches. First time ever a German team played x:0 against a Russian team.

Match winner was German goalie Endras, killing over 30 Russian shots. He is to transfer from the DEL to NHL's Minnesota Wild.

[ReFaN]

Well done Germany :salute:

Well thats the only way Finland can win you, Finlands team has again been a flop.:down:
Been rooting for Germany in their games.:yeah:

For Finlands hockeys future it would be best to end the tournament soon, we have serious issues within our system.
Our federation needs a new leaderships to get our junior hockey back on track.
If nothing changes Germany, Switzerland, Denmark and Norway will rise past us.:nope:

[Happy Times]

Beautiful play and goal by Germany.:yep:

Amazing, just amazing. Never seen anything like that. Especially not in semi-finals :D.

[Spoon 11th]

That trick is pretty common in Floorball (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floorball). Granlund used to be a floorball player.

Indeed, but it's quite a lot harder in hockey (as you have noticed, there are only a handful similiar goals made in the history of ice hockey)

I watched a documentary about Granlund today. Some coach said he practised for six months for that trick a few years back.

Umm, so? It's clear that it wasn't the first time he tried that.

(Yeah I know it's, like, a week late, but I just now saw it. And back when I actually cared about hockey, one of my favorite players was Finnish. So I'm kinda happy they won, for old times' sake.)

[Jimbuna]

Anybody won outright yet?...the channels in my hotel room leave a lot to be desired :hmmm:
