The semifinal games are over.
Finland shutout Russia 4-0.
Flyer’s Antero Niittymaki recorded his third shutout stopping all 21 shots.
Niittymaki has played in 5 games with a 1.00 goals against average.
With a day off until the gold medal game I expect him to start.

Sweden beat Czech Republic 7-3.
Peter Forsberg had a shot on goal and one assist.

So we are down to 2 Flyers, Forsberg for Sweden and Niittymaki for Finland.
The Gold medal game on Sunday should be good, but with it starting at 8am eastern I’m not sure how much of it I will catch. The bronze medal game between Russia and Czech Republic is on Saturday at 2pm eastern. Why not have the game a little later? Guess it would be too close to the closing ceremonies.
For the gold medal game I have to go with Finland. Being undefeated with 5 shutouts, I think Finland will take it.
