It's not case closed at all. The rules say an object above the ice surface. Not the part of the object above the ice surface. It's made that way for a reason. The refs aren't going to come out with a ruler and measuring tape after watching the replay to determine if that part is above the ice.

Yes, it's made that way for a reason. And the reason is because there has to be a limit on what things above the ice surface that are hittable objects without a penalty, jumbotron, rafters and loudspeakers for example.

It was a great game with refs mistakes all over.

Maybe this win will at least curb the "Canada can't win when not on home ice" crowd.

 

[Auston Marlander]

The opposite of classic, really.

The turned skate, the non-call...

Grow up, it was one of the best gold medal games in a while. The refs sucked, but they were equally bad for both teams. Mental toughness was the only difference. Tjose dumb penalties (punch in the face after the period and playjng with a broken stick) were the just 2 prime examples.

The puck always hit the object above ice level, if you shoot it over the class. Why they give penalties ever?

They brought their own crowd with them this time.

Reffing is a problem in hockey in general, not only IIHF.

 

[Esko6]

Replay did show it hitting the part behind the glass. And then you have to define if camera is "structural".

 

[iCanada]

You know, being a poor winner is much worse than being a sore loser.

I don't think we really have to say anything, you can ask anything but really all that matters is Canada scores more than Russia and we win, we're Champions. So sorry, see you next time.

Every time!

 

[NyQuil]

Every time!

One of the larger crowds I’ve seen in Europe for the WJCs.

Maybe I’m wrong.

 

[ItWasJustified]

You’re wrong. But good try.

Nah.

 

[New User Name]

I hope the IIHF explains the non call. I know that the NY based NHL sure to hell doesn't think they have to explain bad calls in their league games.

 

[CarlWinslow]

Nah.

Yep. But carry on with your biased ranting.

I’ll continue enjoying this victory.

 

[NyQuil]

When is the last time Canada won on big ice?

2020.

 

[Ainec]

I think the Canadian crowd in attendance played a bit of a factor

 

[Mick Riddleton]

Better team played the full 60 minutes. Bad calls happen, gotta get over it. Canada took a bunch of penalties early and did not self implode. Rt probably had an alternative ending ready anyways. It was a great game played by kids and now fought over by internet warriors. Lets remember the skill, passion and sheer will to win. Both teams were excellent.

I don't think you are wrong. Besides the hockey it's pretty appealing as a tourist destination. I think that helped a lot.

In all sports. It's a thankless job and it's becoming tougher and tougher to find people willing to do it.

2020.

Haha that gotta be comment of the year

Anti-Canada tears are still flowing. I love it!

I'm not sure either, personally I think that delay of game penalty is cheap and should be abolished.
