Better than your Sebastian Aho.
>>69330735
Are you canadians ashamed of being on the same continent as USA?
>>69330781
Not even close.
Liiga is shit. Putting up points there is only creating fake hype around shit players that don't translate to NHL. There is a reason to why finns never pans out.
Skellefteå >>>> Any Liiga team
>>69330738

Jets incoming
>>69330903
yes
95% of them are absolute drooling morons
>>69330921
Why was he better than any swedes in the u20 games?
>>69331082
I'm not trying to take anything away from Aho, but finland had a pretty good team. He was also on a line with pulju and laine.
Reminder that the penguins have a tainted cup (2009) and only won by a combination of injured opponents and blatant ref puck
>>69331082
Because he was not?
Finland was severly outplayed by both Sweden and Russia until the worst case of reffpucking ever recorded started.
>>69331151
True, not like Aho was being carried by the two tho, he did a lot of work. It was also his first this season playing center
>>69331082
>>69330921
Laine is winning the calder and it won't be close. Matthews/aho/nylander are good players but they have to play on a dogshit team, the jets will be a great team next year IMO and laine will score a bunch of PPG
>>69331176

Patrick Kane is a great American, not only for winning the Art Ross and being the Anakin Skywalker of hockey, but also for helping prove women do make a lot of false rape allegations and the idea of feminist's having their own sharia courts for sex crimes is ridiculous.
>>69331183
Wouldn't count pulju out if he gets to play in a good line on edmonton. Fully honest, I'm not putting my expectations too high on Aho even tho he was great for my home town team this year, his game might not translate too well into NA and he is pretty small.
>>69331259
The deals on Toews and him will cripple the team for years
>>69330958
The real america sits above the 40th parallel
everything else is garbage
>>69330921
Fuck off with your Skellefteå.
Only Frölunda has been able to beat top Finnish teams (Kärpät, Tappara) in the last few years.
>>69329279
Is bill autistic?
>>69331210
>>69331231
Can't wait for a couple of seasons when all of the finnish """"""""golden"""""" generation have busted.
>>69331262
True, I should have said that. If pulju can succeed on the first or second line in edmonton, he will definitely have a legitimate shot at the calder. You never can tell how an undersized player like Aho will perform, especially if he is put at center.
>>69331305
Kek no swedish clubs even try to win these matches because how superior they are.
When Frölunda made Puljushit cry literal tears they were in a huge slump, every team in SHL shat all over them at that time.
Still Frölunda playing like the worst SHL team >>> any Liiga team
>>69331293
>tfw one whole year since they won
;( Why couldn't we win bros??
where do swedes and finns go on holiday to?
like here we go to cuba or other places in the caribbean
>>69331262
Size is starting to matter less and less. When you have a guy who is 5'9 150 lbs score 78 points I think it's time to evaluate skill over size.
>>69331328
It won't even matter. They can end up as average NHL-players or KHL-players and we'd still be competitive.
>>69331383
do you actually go to cuba?
we've had the place embargoed for so long, I forgot that you guys could
folks around here usually hit up jamaica or something else down there, if they go to the carribean at all. Most americans I know go on vacation to other american cities though
>>69331388
Isn't aho a center though?
>>69331467
That doesn't mean he has to be a center in the nhl. He can still be just as good as a winger.
>>69331373
It's not like it's the main competition for Finnish clubs either. Frölunda celebrated like it was though.
>tfw russian goaltending
>>69331467
Not really, he mostly played wing this year and was forced to center since our centers were shit. I think he is better and more comfortable on the wing..
>>69331388
one guy is not a trend
size will always matter as long as the ice is as small as it is. Look at larkin, one of the fastest, if not the fastest, player on the ice. Kid gets knocked right off the puck by anyone that manages to catch him. he needs to bulk up to be getting more than 50 points next year (he is)
speed and skill are fine, but ultimately a larger version of the same speed and skill is always better
>>69331436
Don't give a shit about you being "competetive".
Having a shitload of shit NHL/KHL players like Finland might enable you to pull them to the world cup and chalenge the real hockey nations D-teams. But that is irrelevant to people in Sweden/Canada/USA/Russia but if it makes you happy, good for you.
Well done
how do i get a qt black rag slag?
>>69331500
True, I don't see him succeeding as a center, its so rare for a player that size to become a legitimate top six center.
>>69331549
Makes sense, I don't really follow the hurricanes, do they have any decent young forwards? The calder is so dependent on the team, unless you're insanely talented
>>69331551
I get that but there's a ton of nhl players who are small. I just think its foolish to write off a player because he's not 6'2 210
>>69331605
>slag
Fuck off
>>69331454

>this Swedish Finnish banter
>>69331624
Haven't followed them either, gonna bandwagon because of Aho tho. Same with >pulju
>>69331670
I think it's a fine standard of measurement if the rest of your team is already small
red wings have that problem
>>69331873
I think drafting bigger players is the safer way to go. Doesn't mean youre getting the better player it just means their floor is higher.
>>69331767
And still you haven't done much better than us in the last years.
In the next years we have Laine, Barkov, Pulju, Aho and Juolevi instead of KHL-players and NHL-fringes.
If we are so good with shitty players it'll be end for Sweden.
>>69330903
Canada is just a US protectorate. Canadian identity is just a marketing scheme. Anyone living in America's hat that thinks otherwise is just deluded. Sure, we might have had some burgeoning identify between the end of WWII and the early 70s, but after that America's dominant culture basically assimilated us. Most of Canada's population lives within 100km of the border and is completely saturated by US media and culture. And all the peoples in Canada that have somewhat unique culture and history do not really identify as Canadians first, i.e. Quebec, the Maritimes, and the northern territories. I'd give my left nut to be back in the US sipping on a $0.33 Miller Highlife with my hand up a nice piece of easy going Yankee pussy.
>tl;dr fuck cuckistan
>>69331961

>>69331293
>cripple
They still have one of the best teams in hockey. They're dynasty is assured. They are highly profitable. You watch Dallas or even St Louis games and half the fans are hawks fans. Season before this one Nashville banned out-of-state credit card sales to keep Chicago fans out. Hockey is a business and theirs is run by the fucking legendary Scotty Bowman. I think they'll even run a bit more physical next season with Ladd back, Carcillo on the mend, and Shaw still in the lineup. Teravainen was a loss, but I herd he had some locker room issues, or maybe with Quenneville - who is one of the top 3 coaches in the league if easily - I don't recall exactly.
>tl;dr they're a fun team to watch and don't see that changing
>>69332356
is this copypasta?

I'm in school here. I travel to the US when I can. I lived in Chicago for years felt as safe as in Toronto or Montreal. Honestly, I'm just not into nationality. I don't cry when my cities team doesn't get into the playoffs, but I pay closer attention to individual Canadian players, particularly those from Nova Scotia (yeeeeehhhhh Crosbitch!) and Ontario, because those are the places I grew up.

>>69340233
O'Rielly - Kadri

When wil RANTATANTASHIT produce a single point in the NHL? 10 games was not enough it seems. 20? 30? He was supposed to be WAY BEYOND Nylander?
