GDT: Germany vs Norway, Relegation; Jan. 4, 11:00 a.m local, 5:00 a.m. EST

They are nervous.
Too nervous. they need to control the puck better and get some offense together.

 

[Maverick41]

He is. And there have been a few too many checks where the opposing player has full sight of the number on the back of the guy he's checking. The refs will lose the game if they keep allowing guys to hit other after the whistle.

Germany has to use this intermission to get it through their heads that any attempt to "sell a call" will be ignored and frowned upon.

What Hübner did (after looking so lacsadaisical in allowing that puck to even get into the zone) was very costly. I couldn't see if he got clipped in the face, but he definitely tried to sell that call rather than just stop and clear that puck. Heck, had he just remained lieing on the ice, he might have blocked Johnsen's pass or the ensuing shot. Very, very poor decision.

It was hard to see, but I think the stick hit him just below the neck, but not in the face.
I could be wrong, but that's what it looked like to me.

 

[Edenjung]

Lucky.

 

[Chainshot]

Ugh, that goal was a sin. Err... Sinn.

 

[Maverick41]

Stensrud definitely wants that one back.
Lucky Germany.

 

[Luolis]

Oh no Stensrud. Letting that one is gonna hurt if it's the winning goal.

 

[hockeyprospects9]

Stensrud can’t be letting that in…

 

[Edenjung]

Yes
What a dance around the net ^^

 

[hockeyprospects9]

The collapse

 

[Chainshot]

Okay, that was a bit more legit.

 

[Maverick41]

They almost blew that opportunity, but now it's 4-2. A little bit of breathing room.

 

[hockeyprospects9]

No way Norway comes back now

 

[Chainshot]

A game with almost no calls being made and then they call that...

 

[hockeyprospects9]

There we go

 

[GermanRocket7]

They call that bullshit and now it's 4-3. Thanks, refs.

 

[Chainshot]

This Norwegian team doesn't go away.

 

[Edenjung]

Can somebody check if the refs banko account got a "donation" by the norwegian national fund?
This is so fishy.

Ah come on.
Guys.

 

[Seedtype]

Wow, good job Norway.

 

[Chainshot]

Holy crap. Tied again.

 

[hockeyprospects9]

No way Norway comes back now

My reverse-jinx worked wonders lfg

 

[GermanRocket7]

The travesty goes on, and on, and on...

 

[Statsy]

This tournament never disappoints!

 

[hockeyprospects9]

Norway will prob still lose, they’re pure chaos in their own zone

 

[Luolis]

Shame that the finish will happen in 3v3... This game deserves more.

 

[Edenjung]

My heart....
