CONGRATS to the Fins. My understanding is Hockey is HUGE in Finland. At least way bigger than it is in the US.

 

[IanIan]

Yeah it is. And winning the world championship is like the whole country winning in lottery! Everything just goes CRAZY!

Congats to Finland. They played a great Tournament. Hahahahaha I get to rib my Swedish friends now.

Well that said I'm a huge hockey fan. Not having TV inhibits my ability to follow other leagues however.

 

[IanIan]

haha, well I think you can find at least the results on the internet, but I think the games might be streamed on some websites too I'm just too happy, I should be sleeping, but heck I can't help my self

When they beat Russia, I told a friend of mine that they were beating Sweeden hands down, he disagreed and long story short, I get a free sixer of beer.

I have trouble sleeping now that everyone's making noise outside, we should have lost!

Yeah.. I heard that Helsinki has gone somewhat crazy - and this is late Sunday night! For me the Russia semifinal was the huge emotional rollercoaster, and the gold against Sweden is just icing on the cake. But as said, it's always special when Finland and Sweden meet in a hockey tournament, the rivalry is so fierce, so the meet-up being at the final is a dream game for both countries. And of course the best thing is not that Finland won by 6-1, it's that Sweden lost by 6-1
