No European country has had an impact on the Dallas Stars quite like Finland. As the team prepared for the 2024 NHL Global Series, the Finnish influence on the organization took center stage.

The world series sure was rough for us, but well get back on the wintrain
The stars are awesome every single player
I only remember the Kiviranta hattrick call in Finnish… It was amazing.
It´s called "Finnfluence"
Cool video and love to the Stars from Finland even though I was cheering for the Cats in the games in Finland. Thanks for coming and shame both teams couldn't win.
that was so beautiful, greetings from Finland !!
Yeah Dallas, you’re welcome 🇫🇮

Some scientists say that the rudimentary skates were first used on those icy lakes in the region of modern day Finland and that also a stick was used as part of moving on the ice. Some of those equipment Kari Takko wore were Finnish, like E.g. Koho and Montreal. The Stars played the games at Nokia Arena in Tampere. The Finland's first electric light was lit in Tampere in 1882. You can't use electricity without cables, and for those you need rubber—the same material hockey buck is made of. Nokia is best known for their phones. Predecessors of Nokia as a company were Suomen Gummitehdas Oy and its subsidiaries Suomen Kaapelitehdas Oy and Nokia Aktiebolag. Suomen Gummitehdas is 'Finland's Rubber Factory' in Finnish. Nokia still makes rubber products, E.g. tires and boots. Also, the first ice hockey game in Finland was played in Tampere in 1928. The Finland's first indoor ice rink was opened in Tampere in 1965. And the Hockey Hall of Fame Finland is in Tampere too. Kari Takko, Jere Lehtinen and Jussi Jokinen are presented there.
Great video!

Great video. The kivi hatrick brought me to tears
Most Helsinki people say nobody needs snow not even eskimos or polar bears, but they play indoor, other skii uphill
Koli spotted!!
TORILLE!!
the stars will be finnished by the second round
Why do you say "finnish-born?" They are finnish. Yes, born in Finland, but they have not changed their nationality.
Thomas Harley is US born. Plays for Canada.
Anton Khudobin is born in Kazakhstan. Plays for Russia.
Those players you can call "US-born" and "Kazakstan-born" because they are born there.
What a way to honor a person by calling Jere Jiri……
