Davathor Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 That was the worst officiated game I've seen since Canucks v Bruins. You guys can argue it, and throw witty one liners about both teams diving, the Russians starting it , whatever. I'm glad Canada won, but I wanted to watch the 2 best teams duke it out, not the referees. Disgusting. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Toews Posted January 5, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2020 (edited) There is no honour in losing. You have to be able to adjust the way you play to the standard of the officiating. Besides in a short tournament no one will remember nor care who played the game 'the right way'. We have our gold medal and I couldn't be more ecstatic. Edited January 5, 2020 by Toews 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly Players don't make the calls, they just play the game to what is given them Bad calls were made on both sides One bad call for Hayton gave them a goal One (maybe) missed interpreted call was not a guaranteed goal for them (even then we had a free shot at an open net) We won as we should have 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats to the Canadian boys and someone sign that camera to an NHL contract! Dubas is on it. A cap saving move and it should be mobile enough to crack the Leaf’s defence. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nancouver Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 Wow hayton looks like a stud, coyotes look like they got a good one there. As far as all the diving stuff goes I hate it but can’t really blame the canadians, the russians were flopping all over as usual and getting the calls so what’s good for the goose is good for the gander. Here’s to hoping benning starts drafting some more homegrown talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copperlynx Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 The rule says there is no penalty if the puck hits the structural object ABOVE the ice, while camera was behind the glass. Should be a penalty. But, Russia had scored on a phantom powerplay earlier... 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bertorama Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 That game was bonkers. I was screaming and yelling at my TV. I couldn't watch at moments I’ll say it again the world Juniors might be the best hockey to watch on earth. felt bad for the Russians some silly calls at the end against them would have preferred we won the game without the refs making it 5-3.

guntrix Posted January 5, 2020 Share Posted January 5, 2020 What a game. Most if not all penalties were legitimate, whether or not the refs could've had looser criteria for calling the game is a whole other debate. Congrats on the kids for brining home the gold. Will be interesting to see who makes the cut in the big leagues as I still don't see much NHL star power here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im commenting on how our whole country can blindly follow some kids playing a kids game, but cant seem to decide on anything other than that. Seriously, it is spectacles of entertainment like this that are ruining us. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
