Do or die for the Belarusians.

Do or die for the Belarusians.

Thanks to GER win, BLR need only a point today, tho

 

[tade]

Let's go France!

 

[joe89]

Gut feeling says Belarus takes it at least to overtime. But I really hope for Hungary and their amazing fans they get to stay.

 

[tade]

Bellemare shows that he knows how to play PK from the NHL where he's used to play a lot on PK. No surprise here. He's excellent.

But I have bad feeling about this game in regards to Hungary.

 

[ijuka]

The only match going on right now that matters at all. Belarus must avoid losing in regulation or they are OUT.

 

[kabidjan18]

But I have bad feeling about this game in regards to Hungary.

I'm sure this feeling has nothing to do with the very obvious difference in exertion levels.

 

[kary]

looked like a good goal, IIHF refs at it again

 

[Milansdad]

Thanks guys for rooting for Hungary. It's nice from you.
I root for France big time of course, but have a bad feeling about this game and the result overall. Either way Hungarian hockey took a big step forward and if we get relegated we plan to come right back up to where we'd like to belong in the future which is the top division .

Looked like a good goal on a condition, that Huet kicked it into his own net before time expired. But not sure about that being the case.

I think they're saying the whistle blew

Does this type thing get reviewed?

 

[stv11]

The clock showed 0.2 when it went in, should have been a goal.

 

[kary]

I'm pretty sure he did. Either way, it seemed like they stopped the play for attacking players in the crease - which is ******** while the puck is in the crease...

 

[ozo]

It looked like the referee waived it off for crease violation, but I did not notice whether they restarted the game, if there indeed was 0.2 seconds on the clock. Looks like referees just decided to fix this mess by sending teams to the dressing room.

 

[JTD]

I don't really mind IIHF rules or how the game is officiated that much but the crease violation rule is just annoying. Would like to see them do away with it

 

[Eisen]

Huet gets abused here.

The rule is fine, its meant so the attacking players can't interfere with the goalie while someone else is shooting from OUTSIDE of the crease. I'm pretty sure that crease violation cannot be applied when the puck is already in the crease, not even by IIHF standarts.
I also have no problems with the IIHF rules and standarts, my problem is that they seem to bring terrible refs every time.

 

[kary]

1:0 Belarus

 

[kabidjan18]

Huet gets abused here.

Lol, Belarus players be like "he deserves it"

 

[kary]

wow, there was a pretty big offside before the BRL goal .. i just saw replay

 

[Milansdad]

1:0 Belarus

ouch

 

[ozo]

wow, there was a pretty big offside before the BRL goal .. i just saw replay

IIHF gives, IIHF takes away...

 

[kabidjan18]

Whistles are way too active. This is one of those games more PP time than ES time.

 

[Eisen]

Whistles are way too active. This is one of those games more PP time than ES time.

But not a lot of weak penalties. That one's on the players.
