The admin team will continue to work on existing issues, templates and upgrade all necessary available addons to minimize impact of this new version. Click Here for Updates
If the US had scored, Russians would have ripped that official who let one of the most obvious hooks go.
 
Sydmin goes headhunting ugly, Sydmin goes out duckly. That's poetic justice.
 
One thing the Russians have done really well is getting in passing and shooting lanes. It seems like the US can't make cross ice passes without a Russian player either getting a stick or skate on it.

hughes is an underager though so you really shudnt judge a player that young to harshly. he does look like someone who just mentally isnt prepared yet to play against a jump in competition though.

That's a textbook 5 minute major for a headshot. You don't cut across the front of guys and clip their head like that, it's dangerous as ****.

The smiling bum was skating with his head down all along. What should the other player do? Avoid him? The new tactics in hockey. You turtle and skate into other team's players so every hit on you is "dirty".

Dangerous was what the American was doing there.

The only thing ugly was the reffing. An idiot skating head down in a player who should do what? Dissappear?

I don't know what's better, reffing or attendance.:sarcasm:

You can't possibly be defending that hit can you?

I can only imagine the howling from you if the roles were reversed.

Hughes has been bad but it's not unique to see a younger defenseman struggle with the pace.

I wouldn't be surprised if he's their best defenseman next year.
 
This is the most indifferent I have ever felt about a Russian team in a quarterfinal. This team puts me to sleep. Even if they win I feel contempt for them.
