I don't get how thats dirty, knees collide but he doesn't extend his leg? "Lead by his knee" as this TSN dude said, yeah no, he did not.

Well, we all love our teams right? I'm no different.

Educated guess here..................you feel differently about that play if it were reversed.

 

[Macbanan]

Most clear major penalty in a long time. Well deserved goal

 

[gritdash60]

Dirty intentional kneeing , clear major penalty. Whoever calls this clean hit is probably a sociopath.

Dude, did he extend his leg? What can he do if this player decides to take a hit in some f***ing chinese black lotus position?

 

[MXD]

Why do that in a very important game? Sigh..

The hit that was purported to be thrown was perfectly fine.

 

[chauron]

He didn’t even extend the leg nor connect with the leg first. In OHL that wouldnt have been a 5

 

[Svedu]

Refs just wanted to make the game more even

100 %. Classic.

Your words definitely have a lot of weight here.

Intentional kneeing, where? It was a shoulder hit where the knees collided. Major because of an injury.

 

[Kingpin794]

No skin in the game here. The dude was intentionally trying to blow up the slovakian's knee. Dirty as it gets.

 

[Jussi]

f***ing Anti-Midas has been at it again...

 

[pgcougsfan]

Refs shouldn’t drive the game

I think they should call another 5 minute major on Finland and force them to pull their goalie for 30 seconds.

 

[Svedu]

Where is the goalie interference now? Lol...

 

[PanniniClaus]

Rimpinen's reads are exceptional. I can't get over this guy.

And their knees only collided because Radivojevic tried to dodge the hit.

True true true, need to rewind it again tomorrow with cooler head. Sorry.

 

[MXD]

Lol what was that whistle? The puck was a foot ahead of the goalie!

Dude he went to finish his check, the Slovakian player cowered like a deer in headlights not expecting a check, result is injury.

 

[Jussi]

And their knees only collided because Radivojevic tried to dodge the hit.

This. It was simply an unfortunate accident.

I don't think he necessarily had ill intent but finishing his check turned ugly.

 

[Gsus]

And their knees only collided because Radivojevic tried to dodge the hit.

Yeah but I mean how does one get this an intentional kneeing. That would be leading with a knee. There was none of that.

BS call but we will clear this thing.

 

[Raimo Sillanpää]

I’d tell the boys that do whatever it takes to block fast cross goal passes, let them shoot. Rimpinen has got this..

 

[jj cale]

True true true, need to rewind it again tomorrow with cooler head. Sorry.

No problem

Enjoy the game, tournament has turned around for you guys.

 

[tobu]

Dvorsky is likely already 1st line center quality for the Slovak senior team .

 

[sadpanda]

It was an unfortunate hit. I don’t see how it was ”intentional”.

 

[Svedu]

Rimpinen's reads are exceptional. I can't get over this guy.

He's so active.
