U18: Semi-Finals at the U18!

Curious why Bjarnason doesn't have to go to concussion protocol after getting hip-checked in the head.

 

[Chainshot]

Nordh suspended next game?

Major on a head hit, seems like that's likely.

Such a shame Sweden always get’s the calls against Canada.

What the hell are you talking about? Of course the refs are going to call that. It was as obvious a call as there is, Like the high stick by the Slovak in the US - Slovakia game. Let's see how the calls go in the rest of the game.

Well, considering the 5-0 first period last game this is refreshing. They are playing better along the boards and supporting each other there and not as many brain dead give aways all over the ice.


They need to come out and get it together on the rest of this p.p though, it was uneventful until the very end of the period. you can't let them off the hook on a 5 min major.

The reffing was fine in that period. The call on Ritchie was as obvious as the call on Nordh

5 minute majors are always interesting to follow given how often they swing the momentum one way or the other

Yeah but Canada have done several dirty things to swedish players over the years that wasn’t called. Just saying.

They could say it wasn't intentional. But they should rule that it's up to him to know where he is on the ice. If he wasn't in the crease then it wasn't a penalty.

The 5 minute major was obvious, wether its a suspension or not is a 50/50 thing imo. They’re gonna have a hearing and then decide probably.

 

[Hockeyfrilla]

Goalie change for canada

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Wow. Huge pressure on the 16 year old kid.

Bjarnason staying in the game to end the 1st is a bad look on the training/medical staff.

 

[Chainshot]

Bjarnason out. Crap, that sucks.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Tough break for the goaltender but with concussion protocol and all you gotta be safe.

 

[jj cale]

Daigle in, oh boy.

Let's give this kid a lead to work with here.

 

[Chainshot]

Celebrini had that same cross-seam pass to Heidt again like they did to end the first. Just a smidge off line.

I still want to know why they let him finish the period.

 

[Chainshot]

Nice stop from Daigle holding the post.

 

[ORRFForever]

Playing well for a team missing their best players and thrown together at the last minute.

 

[WarriorofTime]

Too many sloppy breakouts on the powerplay

 

[theslatcher]

Stenberg!

 

[jj cale]

Starter out and fail to convert on the 5...........that hurts.

 

[Chainshot]

Canada's defense again playing like they're handling live ordinance.

Canada?

 

[WarriorofTime]

stenberg makes no mistake

And it's rearing it's ugly head straight away.

 

[ORRFForever]

Canada?

Yes.

You guys are way too hard on this team.
