GDT: May 3 • France vs. Switzerland

[jonas2244]

Pretty impossible to see for a referee, to be honest.

 

[ellja3]

Officiating in this tournament strikes a new low in my eyes.

 

[The Noot]

French guys are losing it. I mean, I want us to win... but

 

[Richi]

Lol, one team is getting royally screwed by the refs...

 

[ahtikullervo]

Nope. Don't think that was intentional.

WTF is going on...

Agree. But refs have called it and time to get on with it.

 

[totozenerd]

The TV showed the replay of the goal: no offside, though it's close.

 

[Shawn Heins 44]

Well lets be honest, it was not 5+20, but the second call on Hollenstein was pure acting by Meunier.
So we are pretty even PIM wrongly called, of course Treille being out for the game is nonsense...

Roussel should only blame himself...

 

[Jon Riley]

Hollenstein like Ovechkin
But those 5 mins are quite cheap.. Not goin to complain though

 

[DangeRouss]

Refs = clowns

 

[ellja3]

If FRA kills this penalty, expect a very angry unit in 2nd & 3rd just one goal down... Showtime.

Roussel is the clown here. Frenchies really need to calm down, no offside on the play, good goal.

 

[The Noot]

The goal is not the problem

The 5 + 20 is a massive one.

 

[ellja3]

Roussel is the clown here. Frenchies really need to calm down, no offside on the play, good goal.

There is no doubt he had to be more composed, but undoubtedly the whole ****storm started with the laughable 5+20, and from then on it is like a snowball

Switzerland has much more quality, no reason why they should not win at all

How can this dude play in the NHL and lose his mind for absolutely no reason..?! I'm sure Nill won't be thrilled about it..

 

[The Noot]

We saw against Austria how well that works out for us.

 

[DangeRouss]

switzerland will kill us

thanks to the ref

No penalty called when SDC was hurt

Treille : clearly unintentional

Rouss : be smart 12 min is enough regarding the situation...you can understand french team frustration

Refs are paid by the Swiss (who managed the IIHF...)

 

[ellja3]

The same way as Switzerland had more quality than the Austrian side

Jokes aside, no doubt you are right, but I am talking about determination that inevitably arises after being so harshly treated. If FRA, as a result of long penalty minutes, would be, say, 3 goals down, it would be a different story, but 1 goal deficit is nothing.

 

[Bookker]

Thanks a lot refs
******* off.

Sacha Treille doesn't even deserve a 2 min penalty

 

[torero]

Roussel is the clown here. Frenchies really need to calm down, no offside on the play, good goal.

Roussel is an agitator with the Dallas stars. He warms up ... !

I am definitely worried against better teams.

We should shoot more, make it less complicate, be a bit smarter ... .
Fiala is surprising.

 

[migi]

Was it Stephane Da Costa who was kicked out of the game or Treille?

 

[DangeRouss]

How can this dude play in the NHL and lose his mind for absolutely no reason..?! I'm sure Nill won't be thrilled about it..

Maybe because he's one of the most untertainment

and a part of one of the best third line

and a all star team member of 2014 IIHF worlds

Da Costa fell all by himself, Treille has to be able to control his body and keep his elbow down, do you know what Roussel told the refs? There has to be a reason that you don't know. Stop talking nonsense buddy!

Can we skip the childish bickering and just agree that the refs ****ed up?

 

[letsgocaps]

Hopefully it's not very serious for SDC.
