That’s what I want to say to them as well. Hog still learned a lot in this tournament and will benefit and make him a better player long term and that’s what matters. If he turns into a mini-Gordie Howe I don't think ANYONE will complain. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tystick Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 (edited) Hoglander did not deserve a game for that when the guy was charging him Edited January 4, 2020 by Tystick 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForestFalcon Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 So what are the rules regarding elbowing in world junior, are they more strict than others, because considering contact was initiated with the shoulder and the elbow was more a follow through, the hit by Hoglander would seem to me to be more of the minor variety of elbowing as opposed to a major and match penalty. But if it is more strict I would guess there's not really an argument there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaimito Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) Hoglander penalty and ejection was the difference. Swedes would have been in final had he stayed in the game. Live and learn. The bad swedish goalie play for the 3rd goal against was pretty bad too. At least Pod had a good game. Edited January 5, 2020 by Jaimito Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel pretty good about Finland coming home empty handed after how a few of their boys conducted themselves at the bar after the game. Went well beyond typical immaturity. I won't be naming names or getting into specifics, but Utunen wasn't involved. Edited January 6, 2020 by King Heffy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ajax- Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 What an amazing event to be part of. So proud to be Canadian. WOW Huge shout out to all the volunteers, organizers, traffic police, servers, public transport people......etc Thank you all Huge shout down to all the very very rude Russian fans. I had beer spilled on me on purpose, the Canadian flag ripped from my hands and thrown on the ground, death glares, etc.... They really need to work on the social aspect of being involved in this type of tournament. To Team Canada. I had no doubt, I had faith and knew in my heart after Finland, that we would beat Russia. Half way through the second, down 3-1, it was pretty quiet and the Russians in the stands were mocking us, 6-1 they kept chanting.................................................. Take that Red Machine One thing to share, so many Czech people would come over and ask us "what number is your son" When we told them all 24 were our sons they got so confused. They don't understand why 5,000 Canadians would come across the globe to watch "Junior Hockey" I told them all, you have to be Canadian to understand Go Canada Go Sweden 2021 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Czechs went above and beyond simple courtesy and made us feel incredibly welcome. Was surprised at the level of English proficiency in restaurants especially. I had little to no language barrier. I had similar experiences with Russian fans. Pity most of them left immediately the game and didn't stay for the presentation, after all the garbage they've spewed over the last well, I really wanted to give it back to them. If anyone still thinks the US has surpassed Russia as our biggest rival, this tournament was a wake up call. When groups of Canadians sing the Star Spangled Banner after the US beat the Russians, there's a reason. I did see one Russian who stuck around long after his team had left the ice and shook his hand, so at least there's some reasonable ones. Was considering going to Novisibursk for the tournament there but honestly I'm having second thoughts after seeing how these clowns acted. Made it feel so much better to beat them though . So proud of our boys for a huge win. For anyone still whining about the camera, the officiating was awful for the entire tournament. It wasn't a new development 1 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
