I don't really follow Finland's games in the Skoda-Cup that intensively, but I always enjoy watching smaller nations play, such as Latvia, Denmark, Kazakstan, etc. They've all put up good fights against bigger nations this year.

Laine is better now, but who knows how it will be in the future.
Centre is also a more difficult position to play

It's a shame Latvia couldn't score at least one goal with so many good opportunities. This also might be the confidence booster Russia lacked so far, we'll see. :-k

Yep, looks like another year of fighting to stay in the Elite division. Seems to happen too often, we start off well and then fall off..

Not even close, we knew that when we have Juuse Saros in the net it will be a shutout for Team Finland. ;)

Certainly he will not more play after the World Cup for Debrecen. Very good job. Already played well against Finland .

2:1 Latvia!! :)

Deserved win for Latvia, was so satisfying to see them put the pressure on Kazakhstan and pull away with the victory! :)
