Anttila scores twice as Finland upsets Canada for gold
Marko Anttila scored a pair of goals including the game-winner and Kevin Lankinen fended off a third period onslaught from Canada to help Finland capture their third gold medal at the World Hockey Championship.
As a Canadian, we have to realize this means many times more to the Finns than to us. A majority of their country was watching this game. I'm really happy for the Finns, and this is great for hockey.
I was saying it even when Murray won those cups. He’s an AHL goaltender at best. Is hardly athletic and I’d bet if you sent him back to the OHL he wouldn’t even be the best goalie in the league. There’s a difference between a goalie giving up bad goals because they simply just screwed up on that particular shot and giving up bad goals because your lack of athleticism prevented you from making the save. For Murray, it’s the lack of athleticism more times than not. An AHL goaltender could have played in the rounds that Murray played in during the cup runs and won the cup.
What dumbass thinks its a good idea to post the results of a sports video before we watch it. What is the point of watching if I already know the score. Pure Brainless!!!!
Congrats Finland! First gold since 2011. This is a sign. Bruins last Stanley cup in 2011. Tuuka Rask is from Finland. My prediction for MVP. Go Bruins!
Llol in all of little Matty Murrays games I’ve never seen any wow factor. I also thought it was pretty stupid to choose him over Marc Andre Fleury for the expansion draft. I mean Murray has never looked promising. He’s a good back up though. Too bad they had him for team Canada though llol. He’s too soft
Not even mad lol. Good for Finland. All I know is that if the best Canadian team played the best Finnish team, the Canadian team would absolutely swamp them, and I take comfort in that fact.
Marko Anttila is 34 years old. He never played in the NHL yet saved his best for the IIHF Worlds. The Olympics is the only meausrement of world hockey supremacy not the IIHF Worlds or Betteman's bullshit mickey mouse Globalist World Cup
Not best vs best so who gives a shit. Hard to get into an international tournament when the best aren’t there. The names not on that Canadian team would make it quite clear how low tier of a Canadian team this was.
Nhl needs to take a look at antilla. Hes 6'8 and plays great. If he switched to center and took face offs he could be a monster on a 2nd 3rd or 4th line
We don’t have any words and we know you don’t want to hear them. We understand your anger, your frustration, your sadness. Everything you’re feeling – we get it. This isn’t the ending we imagined, and certainly not the one we wanted. Thank you for being there the entire way.

This is great for Canadian hockey. Go Finland!
Lol Matt Murray has really dropped off.
Glad to see his glove hand is still “top notch” tho
All the glory to Finland 🇫🇮
Can't we all just agree now that Murray is a minor league goalie carried by the Red Leaf and Yellow Bellies?

Finland has Canada's number
Good on Finland!! I bet how their women’s team lost in controversy lit a fire under this teams ass!
No star power and they shutout Russia and beat Canada, that’s no fluke, that’s heart!

Congratulations Finland.

I’m here for the sad Canadian excuses.
