WC: Finland 2024 roster talk

[FinPanda]

Wow, entire team shat their pants.... drop the soft perimeter players out and put the work boots back on.

Jääskä - Granlund - Hyry
Oksanen - Kapanen - Puljujärvi
Puistola - Helenius - Jormakka
Mäenalanen - Björninen - Pakarinen

PP1
Oksanen(net front)
Puljujärvi(wall) Kapanen(slot) Granlund(wall)
Lehtonen(point)

PP2
Hyry(net front)
Helenius(wall) Jormakka(slot) Puistola(wall)
Kaski(point)

Puustinen has still done absolutely nothing. With Helenius we would get little more offensive talent.

So I like this lineup.

Puistola is for me still not a player with enough fire for a Finnish mens team in a WC. He's a decent player for the euro leagues with his skill. But not intensity, fire etc. And his skill level isn't anything worth mention at this level question its frankly.
Many bash Jormakka and his talent level. I haven't followed him good enough but Puistola should get some more heat too.

Puistola had his chance. I rather see Jormakka as well now. Also Helenius should be inserted back in but as a winger. I doubt that Jalonen will put him to wing position though.

At this point we most likely need wins from both Canada & SUI to avoid Sweden, so it's not looking that great. If we don't get any points from one of those top countries, it most likely means SWE-FIN QF.

We better get at least 1 point from either CAN/SUI or we may not even make the quarterfinal. One point will maybe be enough.
