Well that'll have to be: the ice hockey stars! :)

I must admit, Finnish is very good in getting much medals without gold! :D

Before the Olympic Games, I thought Hannu Manninen would mayybee grab gold, and also Matti Hautamäki. But hélas.
But it would be very beautiful if Finland would take gold tomorrow!!
The first gold medal of this Olympic Games, on the last Game! :D
And, the first Olympic Title for the Finns with Icehockey too! :)

The flag of Finland is now flying on the pole at home, where it will stay through the weekend. Ready to wear my Suomi lippalakki and KOIVU "C" Olympic team jersey, and put on my game face. Bring on the ruotsi limp wrists! :twisted: :wink:

Great effort by Puurunen in the biathlon, and a wonderful show of emotion at the finish line.

I hope the hockey team will be appreciated for their accomplishments even if the colour of the medal ends up being silver. ( Of course, still hoping for gold.)
