Girl - 25 - Finland. Loves hockey: for example team Finland, JYP,  Minnesota Wild, Nashville Predators. Mikko Koivu and Pekka Rinne are my all-time favourites, but I have soft spot for other (especially Finnish!) players as well. Above all, I respect players, the game and people.

Examples that show goalies are the best, part one

1: Marc-André Fleury tripping

2: Carey Price staring down at Chris Kreider after he bounce off him

3: Juliús Hudáček and Henrik Lundberg leapfrogging

Two Swedish ice hockey goaltenders are on the ice. One is crouched down, the other jumps over him and crouched down as well while the other goalie stands up to repeat the sequence. Also called 'leapfrogging'.

4: Whatever this dude is doing

An unidentified ice hockey goaltender on the ice. he is moving forwards and making wild movements with his arms and legs, jumping and rolling. Supposedly cheering after a win.
ALT

5: Anything Hudáček does

6: Scott Darling not wanting to deal with this shit

An ice hockey goaltender named Scott Darling is sitting on the bench next to the ice on which a game is being played. he raised his glove in front of his face when he noticed a puck flying towards him. the two ice hockey players besides him flinch away as a puck passes them. The puck hits the goaltender in his chest, which is protected by gear.

7: Sergei Bobrovsky giving the best hugs

An ice hockey player bumps his helmet against that of an ice hockey goaltender. the goaltender is named Sergei Bobrovsky. When the player removed his head, indicating he is going to skate away, the goaltender wraps his arms around the players back and lays his head against the players chest. The player hugs back and pats the goaltenders back.

8: Ilya Bryzgalov in general

9: Kari Lehtonen waiting for the puck drop

10: Craig Anderson making himself a chair

THE FUTURE IS NOW

As of 2023, Teuvo Teräväinen (Carolina Hurricanes) and Esa Lindell (Dallas Stars) are new, partial owners of their former team Helsingin Jokerit. They played for Jokerit together for three years, 2010-2013, and won the World Junior Championship together in 2014. Both are now successful in the NHL and important players for their respective teams. The new owners hope Jokerit will make a return to Mestis by next season.

Finnish people really are proud of him.

Translation: Finlands cha-hero! We know it. The world knows it. He was the best. Cha cha cha. (*also the jury gave finland 150 points and sweden 340 points, but lets not think about that.)
