Just started watching, is Power getting any time?

Pospisil > Sharangovich

 

[fouba]

Wouldnt really be too worried about the canada-team, very much in control. Latvia goalie deserve some respect tho

 

[Edenjung]

Latvia has a really great looking Jersey.

And especially the pads and the equipment of their goalie in general looks good.

 

[Sens72]

Power - JBD is a pairing that needs to stay together

 

[Antiillafire]

Looked like a crease violation

I've really liked the look of it, especially Docker.

 

[peto10]

that's a good goal, what is taking so long?

 

[jj cale]

Latvia in position for a big win.

 

[Antiillafire]

that's a good goal, what is taking so long?

Ughhh no

 

[flemo]

What was the reason for not allowing goal?

 

[Pasha71]

That's some bullshirt!

 

[tobu]

Looked like a crease violation

This was a tough call against Belarus to be honest. Sure, he was in the goal crease for a while, but has he made contact with the goalie and impaired his ability?

It doesn’t matter. According to IIHF rules, the player has to be completely out of blue paint when shot comes in

 

[Pasha71]

As a Russian TV broadcaster said, "if goals like that aren't allowed, why even watch hockey?". And then he also praised the NHL for making the refs actually explain why the goal is disallowed (unlike here).

 

[filip85]

Proud of Comtois coming to play after some idiots did was they did to him after last WJC he played in, it was a f***ing disgrace.

What they did on him ?

 

[Czechboy]

I think it should've counted... Just tuned in for the review. Happy to see 3-0... Now to see what latvia is doing

 

[Antiillafire]

The goal should’ve definitely counted if this was the NHL

That rule has been changed. See page 150 - situation 1 https://blob.iihf.com/iihf-media/ii...ok/iihf_official_rule_book_2018_ih_191114.pdf

 

[Antiillafire]

Taylor keeping Belarus in the game here

Just heard the ref explain, so he judged it by 5B. Fair enough

5.B. An attacking player skates in front of the goaltender, well inside the crease, at the same time a goal is being scored. The attacking player remains in motion and, in the judgment of the Referee, maintains a significant position in the crease impairing the goaltender’s ability to defend his goal.

 

[Antiillafire]

Wtf that was not an intentional offside on us. Refs making up calls now

 

[jj cale]

What they did on him ?

After a W.J.C loss some twits posted a bunch of anti French stuff blaming him for the loss. Wasn't pretty.

 

[Antiillafire]

Knazko impresses me a lot today

 

[llwyd]

Definitely doing a separate thread for Finland's game tomorrow.

Yep - what is this, Jatkoaika? Herring salad
