Time stopped for a couple seconds at 27

 

[PerpetualTankYear]

Shootouts are stupid in the NHL. Even stupider in the friggin Olympics.

 

[Noisespektrum]

fyi, Quick played the whole OT with the net off the moorings just in case

 

[magic school bus]

Kane, you were supposed to bring order to the force, not chaos

 

[KuralySnipes]

To be fair, Kane has been great in OT.

I don't think so, he has been very lazy on defense all night.

 

[Brooklanders*]

Hahahaha. Russian clock keeper? The time didn't start for several seconds

Yeah too funny.

 

[Holocene]

Ugh shootout. Horrible!

 

[kingpest19]

Backes could have pulled out a schank and knifed Markov and there wouldn't have been a penalty. and then the ref has the nerve to give Markov **** for complaining? Bull ****, moronic ref

So the ref is a moron for giving Markov **** for complaining about a no call when Markov was holding the stick?

 

[RoyalDuder]

Blah, shootout. This game is over now as far as I'm concerned. I want to see real hockey.

 

[Canucks LB]

5 shooters right?.

Kane
Pavelski
Kessel
Kesler
Parise

I really have no clue.

 

[Leafidelity]

Absolute travesty that a game this good will be decided by a skills competition

 

[Nose Face Killah]

Kane better not take a shot in the shootout

 

[SanDogBrewin]

Pavs is having a great game! Nice block too.

Yep all California today.

 

[TheSituation]

Shootout?

 

[DrunkUncleDenis]

Russia had plenty of chances to take this game prior to that "goal". They never took it and find themselves in the position they are in right now.

So Russia had plenty of opportunity to score... before they scored...

 

[MMANumminen]

Russija will own the penalty shot contest

 

[NuxFan09]

A shootout is a terrible way to end this game. Come on....

 

[Ducks Ahoy]

Lol Kane giving his stick the death stare

 

[End of Line]

Oshie-JVR-Kane first 3 shooters

 

[NyQuil]

What a stupid rule, not allowing the goal. Why do you have refs anyway if you just could make the decisions afterwards. I think that the only help they should get is to see if the puck is in or not. Very vague(?) rules if the goal from Czech Republic vs. Sweden counts when the czech inteference Kronwall in to his own net but not this. Can't see the difference. I think that if the video reviewer can decide one of this things he can decide the other too. But anyway my opinion is that the reviewer only should decide if the puck is over the line or not. Otherwise we can play without refs on the ice. In floorball, a popular game here in Sweden similiar to hockey, it's a goal if the ball crosses the line even if the cage is knocked over or away from it's position. I think it should be the same in hockey.

Sorry for HORRIBLE english. Just wanted to say my opinion.

I think most of the automatic IIHF rules are terrible.

 

[adsfan]

It'll be a real miracle if the US wins this shootout.

Because the Russians do so many shootouts?

 

[Ryan McDonut]

So we don't adopt the net rule from the nhl but they take the shootout rule. Lol.

 

[CHIP72]

Regardless of the shootout result, this game has been fun.

Game should already be over, Russia has it in the bag.
