I can't wait when his Cup rookie hit to the market:)

Last night, game winning goal against Russia. New Finnish 19 years superstar Mikael Granlund. We are going to the Final
He's been team Finlands best player in this tournament.

think he got that goal somewhere?(I'm no Michigan fan, that's for sure):

I remember also that, awesome goal, but Mikael's goal was full speed goal and he did it in semifinals.

Heyy.. wait, who's here?



He's brother

100% agree. That is one of the things that I find so impressive about the goal. While I'm not sure what kind of situation teams have been in when other players have scored like that, I doubt it has been used at a higher hockey level or in a higher pressure situation than Granlund's goal.

hmmm I always kinda liked this dude, his injury last year derailed him a bit... looks like he will be exciting

Well we know that many guys can do this kind of 'tricks', but only in their backyard. Granlund is a very talent player but the best part is that he is mentaly very strong and his heart is a pure gold.

He is already leader in our national team and his only 19 years old!

This is very funny: Finnish commentator Antero Mertaranta after Mikael goal. Antero is also very well known person and commentator legend in Finland.

Can't wait to watch you score goals like that in a Wild sweater, Mikael!
