CAN v FIN (IIHF u20)

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

I honestly don't know.

But look at it this way...even if Finland loses today, they still have a shot at a medal (but in this case it would be bronze). Did Finland pull their goaltender in this game?

And there we'll face our dearest and funniest opponent ever...



But my grammar isn't working anymore, what's to 'pull a goaltender'? Should we switch him?

If a goaltender is pulled from a game, it means that they're being taken out of the game and being replaced by another goaltender, though a team can also do it to get an extra attacker when they're in a pinch. But in the case of the latter, it leaves the net empty, so that the opposing team can get an empty net goal.

A goalie is usually pulled and replaced by another goalie if they allow around 4 goals or so. Sometimes a team has to do something drastic when they're in DEEP trouble in a game.

So to answer your question, who knows? That could be a decision that makes or breaks their chance of getting bronze (I'm sorry to say that they aren't gonna get gold).

Canada was the coolest on the ice today.
