What did he just say the crowd was chanting? I missed it

Score a goal.

 

[Canuck21t]

It was perhaps the most legit goal of the tournament, he neither blocked the goalies view or hindered him from taking the puck.

Canada have been playing decent hovewer the Czech deserves atleast a goal.

Canada always get the refs on their side in important games, dirty plays both off and on the ice.

I will for the first time in history root for Russia in a final (or USA depending on result). Dirty wins are the worst thing for a hockey lover.

You have such a petty mentality and your bias against Canada is clouding your logic. We have had games called against us many times, but your bias chooses to ignore those and only remember when Canada is favoured.

The call may be a bad one, but if we win this game, it's because we deserve it. So far Canada has been superior.

 

[Jussi]

did you guys still claiming its by the rules not read the cut/paste from the rulebook on the previous page clearly stating that it should have been allowed??

Di you not read the part I posted?

 

[AwesomePanthers]

No you need to get your eye sight checked. Just the fact that he was in crease was enough to blow the whistle. They've called it like that all tournament.

No, they can't call it when he barely touched it, and didn't prevent Smith to make the save or his sight. Watch the replay and check the rule. Please..

Yikes.

Now I know you're just looking for reactions.

The reason, why is it so frustrating for many is because there simply isn't any league in the world, where crease violation is called so meticulously. That being said, IIHF is enforcing it this way and the rules are rules, no matter how stupid they may seem. Last year it was (atleast I think) Latvia who was screwed by this rule, this year we ...

 

[Spawn]

Mike Smith... Jesus.

 

[NyQuil]

It should have been a goal.

Anyone who watches and enjoys hockey would agree.

The WCs are infamous for brutal calls at the worst time so no one is particularly shocked.

 

[FlareKnight]

Jagr better watch it or he's going to cost his team the game, not the refs.

Isn't that simple because Rule 186 iv. If an attacking skater establishes position inside the goal crease, obscuring the goaltender’s sightline but making no contact, and a
goal is scored, it will not be allowed.

 

[777]

Score a goal.

score a goal

Thanks

refs made same call against us many times this tournament. skate was barely in the bluezone all those times. good call...

 

[Jussi]

That's enough, Barkov got called for it several times. If a precedent has been set, whether it's good or not, they should at least stick by it.

 

[BlueSaint]

Now you czech's know how it feels to have a perfect goal get taken away.

 

[NyQuil]

More exciting now.

 

[AwesomePanthers]

goal is scored, it will not be allowed.

Look at the angle of Smiths face, the Czech player doesn't block his view, or in away prevent him from make that save..

 

[Jussi]

How did Jagr not get penalty for that clothesline?

 

[Faterson]

Good goal even by IIHF rulebook. Czechs got robbed.

 

[NyQuil]

That's not right before the goal.

Yeah, I posted that. And then someone else posted another rule proving I was wrong.

 

[Jussi]

He's trying to look around him. You're really reaching now.

 

[Gsus]

Haven't seen Giroux's line in a while there.

 

[Hemsky001]

Now you czech's know how it feels to have a perfect goal taken away.

it's a great feeling, even more there are no Czechs crying all the time

Ok then Rule 184 i. If an attacking skater establishes position in the goal crease, play will be stopped and the ensuing faceoff will take place at the nearest
faceoff spot in the neutral zone.
