GDT: Quarterfinal • Jan. 2 • USA vs. Russia

[clevelandcane]

even though they scored, the US power play has to be the worst formation Ive seen

I know. 5 on 3 and our 3 guys are standing at the blue line playing patty cake.

 

[EON]

hahaha what an awful setup, that was embarrassing. Great shot though

 

[CarlWinslow]

I can't believe anybody is complaining about high sticking calls. Your stick hits someone in the face or head, accidentally, softly etc. it will get called. It's pretty simple.

 

[Habsawce]

Can't say that I've seen that set up before on the 5 on 3.

 

[ViCiieux]

Ok refs gave USA one.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

I saw a cross check to the mouth area. Perhaps you should get your eyes checked? I don't know what else to tell you.

Again, not surprised.

DeAngelo on the board. The Canadian viewing party retreats for a few minutes.

 

[Nick1219]

This could get interesting in a hurry.

 

[OttawaRoughRiderFan*]

5 on 3!! Score here, come on. I want an exciting game.

Agree. Both teams have been horrible.

 

[Shadden]

If Russia loses this, they will have only themselves to blame after all the missed PP opportunities they had.

 

[ShameOnYouZidlicky]

Another big goal from DeAngelo.

 

[Dolemite]

Selfish shot by butcher.

 

[Breakers]

refs give usa a goal

Like the refs gave Russia their second goal.

 

[Scotty B]

The only bad call, was a non-call, when the Russian D laid the lumber on Larkin...Otherwise refs have called a Good Game...No One should be complaining!

 

[Habsawce]

Again, not surprised.

DeAngelo on the board. The Canadian viewing party retreats for a few minutes.

What does me being Canadian have to do with anything? He cross checked him in the mouth for christ sake. Stop playing the victim card like everyone is out to get the big bad US, it's tiresome.

 

[quartus]

Only me thinking the refs have been fairly consistent?

 

[KittysGotClaws]

refs give usa a goal

Only from Canada.

 

[Bigleaf]

US is going to win this game and it is going to boost their confidence overcoming all these penalties and coming back.

 

[cska78]

Golyshev screws his team-mates over once again

 

[Leafidelity]

Only me thinking the refs have been fairly consistent?

Everyone but the Americans

 

[landy92mack29]

eichel has been bad.

 

[Shadden]

Only me thinking the refs have been fairly consistent?

I agree, homerism is strong in this thread.

 

[BackToTheBrierePatch]

refs give usa a goal

the same refs that have handed the Russians 7 PP chances.

k.

 

[Markov4Captain]

Oh my Eichel

 

[Machinehead]

Apparently nobody practices shooting

 

[Daeni10]
