Man I missed the 1st :cry: I thought it was a 10:15 start.
Who stood out in the 1st?

Marner was good. De Haan.

Simmonds missed a tap in from Giroux.

Skinner missed an open net opportunity later on.

Some big hits in this game. Brayden Schenn laid a guy out.
 
These games are relatively difficult to win from the penalty box.
 
Canads getting Finland treatment. Everything that can be called against gets called, but almost nothing in favor of. Didint see the latest one though
 
Lol. Stupid refs, trying to hand the win to Russia. What is new?

The call was completely correct, you are not allowed to play the puck before you have fully entered the ice. Seeing how the Canadian hadn't even put a single skate on the ice, it was as obvious of a penalty as it could have been. Now, whether the actual penalty listed is the correct one is another matter, but the announcer definately mentioned playing the puck rom the bench, so it can't have been all that wrong.
 
Why does the TSN commentator pronounce it Shipachev when it even says Shipachyov on his jersey? -_-

Anyway, pretty ineffective PP for Russia there.
