Jokinen Scores Tying & Winning Goal as Finland Wins Bronze

Olli Jokinen scored the tying and winning goal as Finland scored four third period goals to defeat Marian Gaborik and Slaovakia 5-3 to win the bronze medal last night. Game recap.

Gaborik who suffered a lower body injury against Canada on Firday played and chipped in a power play goal. His fourth of the tournament.

Game highlights here.

...still not happy that Gaborik played last night, but it was reassuring to see him get through the game without further injuring himself and scoring as well.

...nice to see Jokinen step up big in a big game. Hopefully he can keep that going when he gets back to New York.
