PGT: Game 15: Russia 7 - Switzerland 4

[PG Canuck]

This is wild

 

[Sam Spade]

Well that was awesome!!! How clutch is the Russian goalie?

 

[Fred McCarthy]

Now I've seen it all , right down to the Russian sitting in the penalty box till both penalty shots are taken , then he comes out and the Russians go on the power play

 

[hockey20000]

damn it missed both...

 

[sandysan]

I know the IIHF is not the NHL but that is idiotic.

A double penalty shot and they end up shorthanded?

What if they had scored ? Would they have gotten the second one?

My head is spinning

 

[Cult of Hynes]

The swiss coach f***ed that up so badly with his first choice.

 

[Antonglk]

Lol. I found that i don't know rules.

 

[Blender]

I didn't even know that could happen.

 

[Canada4Gold]

That's not a rule, it requires a chance being taken away to give a PS. The first PS counteracts that requirement for the 2nd one

 

[ORRFForever]

If I'm the Swiss, I would have preferred 2 penalties - and I felt that way BEFORE the 2 misses.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

Too funny!

What if they scored on the first attempt? Do they get the second attempt?

 

[GoCaps2004]

that just,,,, seemed wrong

 

[Hennessy]

Huh.

 

[PG Canuck]

I know the IIHF is not the NHL but that is idiotic.

Absolutely not. That’s the right call.

With the way Russia's been scoring on the PK, I'm not sure I agree.

 

[LAINEC]

Ok. I stop drinking.. WTF

 

[ORRFForever]

A penalty shot and a penalty would have been most fair.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

Technically, it made sense. But could the Swiss have scored 2 goals on those penalty shots?

 

[Lays]

Fun game

Yes? Why not?

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

My God are these Russian players imbeciles. That butt-end was clear as day and right in front of the ref.

 

[Junohockeyfan]

Yes? Why not?

That is insane. haha

 

[Blender]

5 minute major for butt ending. This game is crazy.

 

[PG Canuck]

Bye bye buddy

 

[MXD]

.... moron.
5 seconds after the hit in the back.

 

[Randyne]

they traded 2 min for another shot, Russian SH is too dangerous )
