Finland is in the Gold Medal Game at the 2019 Worlds thanks in no small part to Kevin Lankinen.

Lankinen was amazing last night but in reality he hasn't been that good in other games of this tournament. He can become a really good goalie but he needs more time to develop. That being sad I hope we see the same Lankinen today as yesterday. Having sure goaltending like that would definitely give us a shot at the championship!
There are plenty of KHL players in Finnish team. I know you north Americans don't respect that league but i wouldn't underestimate them.
How many times Russia has choked in elimination stage playing Finland? Does anyone know?
Relly nice jersey!!!
If you bet money to finland you get lot of money
The Finland – Russia game was the best game I've seen in a while. Damn my heart was beating like never before
Future nhl bois
Russian players played like trash, they should get at least ten penalties for playing like that. Glad that they loosed.
What makes name Kevin specific canadian?
That is so true. Don't be arrogant or you might get beaten!
People do not seem to understand that there are many players in europe who might be slightly too small for NHL or makes the same money in KHL and can play close to their home, who are actually very close to NHL-level. The difference is there, but it's definitely not as big as people generally think.
When the team is much bigger than sum of its parts.
Kevin its not rare name in Finland in these days. In here we have Patrick, Kevin, Mark, Paul, and thats kind of name alsoš those guys are useally young people becouse its in vogue give international name.. Thats why in future you maybe will see more name like thatš
Tori is <3
SUOMI for ever !!!
75% of the population in Finland are fans of hockey its the biggest deal here by far. It was always big but since 2011 It has grown massive. This is the reason why Finnish players are so motivated to play but the real reason why Finland won 2019 gold is their godtier coach Jukka Jalonen who is arguably the best coach in the world.
The cat in the background is funny. The last minutes of Russia vs. Finland were so thrilling. I almost had a heart attack.
I yearn for the WC tournament where Finns aren't "the underdogs" for once.
In Finland we have a saying: First we give them the siima then we pull the matto alta
Have you deleted your video about final between Finland and Canada?
