USA whips Finland; headed for final!
It was no contest this afternoon when team USA took on Finland in the semi-final hockey round. Ryan Malone scored at 2 minutes 4 seconds in the first period and it was downhill for Finland from there. All 6 of the USA’s goals were made in that first period, and Finland never seemed to recover from the shock. No more goals were scored until a power play in the third period when Finland’s Antti Miettinen finally got one in at 54:46. But it was way too late.
I have to wonder, what happened to Finland? This wasn’t supposed to be the rout it ended up.
The USA is now assured at least silver as they head to the final against the winner of this evening’s match-up between Canada and Slovakia.
