The crowd booing is absolutely classless. Pathetic.

That's definitely 5. What in the hell is wrong with this Canadian team?

 

[landy92mack29]

That's 5

I mean in reality it's not a penalty but for iihf yeah it'll be a 5

 

[MNRube]

Classless team

 

[glue]

If 2005 was the best ever team Canada, this will go down as the worst , especially the coaching staff

 

[Sticktape]

It just feels like maybe 5 or 6 of these guys belong on the team and everyone else is just a replacement level invisible nobody that contributes nothing. No leadership at any level. No swagger. No identity.

 

[stevo61]

How f***ing stupid can you get?

Don't ask that, they take it as a challenge

 

[Erikfromfin]

If Pieniniemi hit was major then this one is definetly major.

 

[Go19]

What is the record for penalties for Canada in the WJC? They have to be close

 

[Hattrick Kane]

If the players are acting like thugs, maybe don’t bring a bunch of untalented plugs next year.

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Czech player looks around for a call before he fakes his injury

 

[stopclickbait]

greasy knee on knee, gutless hit.

 

[Eternal Leaf]

Brutal knee on knee.

 

[Spektre]

That wasn't knee on knee....but it will 100% be a 5 min major in IIHF lol

Knee on knee isn’t a knee on knee?

 

[Hennessy]

Regardless, that's just a bad hit.

 

[Satan]

Let the boys play

 

[heksagon]

Could easily be 5

In the Finn game earlier Pieniemi got ejected for a similar hit

Yeah, in fact Pieniniemi got ejected for less than this

 

[chaser17]

Lmao he looked for the ref before starting the sell job.

 

[kudymen]

This was rather fugly to watch in slo mo... booing afterwards was downright dumb

 

[MTU34]

Even if you argue Beaudoin didn’t make contact with the knee first he’s literally leading with his elbow. That’s a nasty hit

 

[hockeyprospects9]

Maybe not a 5

 

[fahad203]

That's a penalty for sure. Not a 5

 

[Blender]

His leg is sticking way out, should be a 5 and he'll be lucky if not.

 

[gritdash60]

eh, even if we picked the better players it wouldn't have mattered, Dave Cameron would still be coaching which is the bigger issue.

I think there should always be an asterisk on a tournament that someone else than Canada wins. They just didn't bring the best coach/roster/management/attitude etc.

Canada is the winner, if not its a fluke.
