Kivenmaki assisted on Team Finland’s fifth goal, scored by Elias Laitamaki, in the 6-5 victory over Team USA. He had one shot and finished even.
”Pretty good, I guess,” Kivenmaki said. “There was a couple of chances but I played a little bit simple but it’s pretty good overall, I think.”
The Red Wings’ 7th round pick might end up being a good player, eh? He apparently played well in yesterday’s game against Sweden too.
Despite not having Lundell or Kakko, the Finns could score thanks in large part to their transition and opportunism, but players like Puistola (CAR), Kivenmaki (DET), Ranta (COL), and Tanus in particular showed skill, while others like Joonas Oden (UD) challenged with speed/power
