GDT: May 25 • Gold Medal Game • Part II [MOD WARNING IN OP]

[Kulleroinen*]

Good job Salomäki. We need more of that.

 

[Periwinkle]

Penalty doesn't get a lot more obvious than that.

It's about obvious penalties going uncalled the other way, not that it wasn't a penalty.

 

[Matti_A]

Embarrasing dive by Ovie. What a pre-Madonna.

Russia had nothing on Finland 5-on-5.

They should donate the ref's a couple gold medals also for gifting them so many powerplays.

 

[Leizi]

Maybe we could petition the IIHF to disqualify Russia for having their banned coach communicating with the team

 

[jonlin]

Penalty doesn't get a lot more obvious than that.

I agree. This would have been a Finnish PP though if the refs actually would use their eyes and not their ears.

 

[NutCracker]

Haven't read this thread, just finished watching the game. How russians feel about these refs?

 

[KeeroleHaula]

Looks like that it's going to be dirty end

 

[fredligh]

Goon it up! Gooon it up!

 

[luongo321]

Woooooooo. Go Russia!

 

[QnebO]

Clean hit by salomäki! Make them pay for the last minutes. We shouldn't forget clean hit on Jormakka!

 

[Revengeality]

Yeah. No whistle, until ovie takes a dive. To time tp smash some mongol heads!

more please!!

 

[SoupyFIN]

Dive!

That wasn't, but it's quite ridiculous how they didn't call the same thing when Salomaki got tripped 30 seconds earlier.

If you're gonna call it, call it both ways. These refs are so biased and aren't even hiding it.

 

[habsrule4eva3089]

Should the IIHF hire NHL refs that couldn't make the cut for the NHL playoffs? This is disgraceful albeit for a minor event nonetheless still deserves equality.

 

[Jyrki]

As if everyone expected anything different with the tournament being set in Belarus.

E: By the way the Ovechkin penalty was a phantom call, the stick never got on or between his skates. There's no way it's a call with all the non-calls earlier.

 

[Cruor]

Finland disintegrating

 

[Uncle Scrooge]

Crush them. Nothing else left to do

 

[Paxton Fettel]

Can we please have a MOD warning in this thread regarding the upcoming trolling posts directed against Russia, such as "this tournament means nothing / this is a meaningless victory / you failed at Sochi / you are 5th best in the world". Thanks.

 

[PTmbp13]

Good job Salomäki. We need more of that.

no! it can be life changing, not even Znakrov or Mailking deserve that. stupid thing to do.

 

[suomi12]

Cmon! Make Shipachev and Malkin pay!

 

[Juzmo]

Russia once agains showing it's the number one hockey country in the world.

 

[alpa]

Frustration takes over..darm. cheaters win.

 

[Aksu]

These refs. These mother****ing refs. We all need to send iihf hateful emails ffs. ****ing pissed

 

[Plural]

Clean hit by salomäki! Make them pay for the last minutes. We shouldn't forget clean hit on Jormakka!

Please god, no. Have respect for the game and the players by playing the rest with clean hard game. No need to goon it up and put peoples health in danger.

 

[QnebO]

Let karalahti play till end!

 

[TheFeistyFinn]

everyone who feels like whining about refs or diving just stop now. accept the loss and be happy that this ****** team with 15 rookies made it this far. Rinne is amazing <3
