- Roster features 5 NHL players & a prominent star (Mikko Rantanen of the Colorado Avalanche)
- They’re 2-1-1 in the tournament so far, and both losses came vs. Top 4 teams (USA and Sweden)
- Next up is Hungary (0-1-3)
- They’ve only scored 6 goals in 4 games while allowing 19 (tied 2nd worst goal differential)
- Sweden wiped Hungary 7-1 on Thursday, and Finland is comparable to Sweden (they went to shootout last week)
Bottom line: look for the Fins to come out firing vs. a weaker opponent in a game they need for standings positioning! The 1st period spread angle we’ve been riding works, but I prefer the Team Total route for a similar price (-120 vs. +110) in this instance.The Pick: Finland 1P Team Total Over 1.5 (-120)
