All the gloryhunters suddenly on Spawrts side? LOL. Too bad for you guys that they're going down, I'll single handedly yell them down tomorrow if nothing else works.
Ässät has shown so little will to do any damage in SM-liiga so a little change wouldn't hurt...
Some changes in the management certainly wouldn't hurt, but that's not likely to happen since Ässät will play in the Sm-liiga next season. Sport wouldn't do any better than Ässät though, guaranteed.
What's the deal? You can also find Ässät fans from youtube. Luckily these games are played on ice, not in the stands though a water gun would match the spitting Sport fans... And who can stand Tamminen if he gets the promotion...

So you're saying that Ässät fans can have that kind of impact when Ässät is playing away from Pori? I don't think so. And that's the deal. And I think a possible relegation would serve as a well needed wake-up call for the organization in Pori.
Tami is maybe the most overrated coach in Finland, but still must hope that Sport wins.
...and thank god that JYP win today. When everybody say anything, must say that i hate both Kärpät and JYP, but kärpät are so... arrogated and they have so much money buy all class players, must hate them. Thats the reason for JYP

Tami overrated? By who? I think he has been dirt for years.
I root for Sport too in these series, well I gotta my dad used to support them in the 70´s while living in Vaasa.
And agree with JYP thing too, I can´t stand both of them but hope that JYP wins.
Home team audience should do that on a regular basis, especially if your team is in danger to sank. But the way Ässät have played the whole season I understand it´s not that easy.

And which teams fans could have done that against the red army? Besides they got their faces owned (in both meanings of the word) in the game 7 and thats all that matters really, since - as we all know - it tends to be the deciding game of the series.

A major shake up to happen in Pori?
We can only wait and hope for the best, but like I mentioned earlier that's not likely to happen since Ässät kept their place in the Sm-liiga. My guess would be that Alpo is the only guy kicked out, the management will remain in the form it is and has been for way to long. I'd personally throw everyone out except for (TJ) Hirsimäki, who's actually done pretty good job in the financial level.
And SM-liiga makes a fool of itself yet again. Splitting the MVP award... Has that ever happened in any league?
...and it goes to JYP goalies Sinuhe Wallinheimo and Pekka Tuokkola. In case someone doesnt know. Those guys played about half and half of the playoff games. I dont have anything against it even if JYP`s defense made it pretty easy for those guys.
Gongrats JYP! Best team this season without a doupt.
I would have given the trophy for some of their defensemen. Playoffs overall, Välivaara 2+6 and +7, Malmivaara 2+3 and +10 would have been great choices.

Didn't see much of the SM-Liiga this year but why is it Assat is in such disarray? Was it just simply finances that caused so many players to head elsewhere or are there other issues? HPK-Assat was quite entertaining a couple of years ago. What happened?
Well, they basically lost many players from that team and even if they got lot of money for success, they didn't invest on getting better players. The team that went to finals wasn't that good in material (they had really good spirit though).
