GDT: United States Vs Germany | 2:30PM ET | Group A - Canadian Tire Centre

[Sheppy]

I don’t think it’s right, but I don’t hate that they did that.

I think overall they need to be able to make judgement calls.

 

[ShippinUpToBoston]

Can’t wait to hear this

 

[SI90]

So if Finland was twice the population, they would still have the same amount of players in the NHL?

Maybe more but the point is how popular and serious the game is taken.

 

[Zybalto]

Can't really give the US coach hell for challenging there either.

 

[MTU34]

Only thing I can think of is it was delayed because he didn’t have possession

That’s 100% what it is. Asinine that pushing the puck 6 inches ahead of your stick is considered not having possession but here we are

 

[SI90]

German Goalie 100% getting drafted this time around

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Canada typical

 

[jj cale]

Big save!!!

 

[Cloned]

Someone named Lewandowski scored in a major international hockey tournament?

 

[Canada4Gold]

I could get behind either call. When he touches the puck it looked like the skate may have still been on the ice, but not sure you have definitive proof of that.

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Only thing I can think of is it was delayed because he didn’t have possession

It is determined form when he touched the puck in the zone. If it took that long to review it then there was no clear view of his toe on the ice. GHo with the call on the ice.

 

[WreckingCrew]

USA screwing themselves the last few min of play (and 0 for 3 PP), but that's the typical shit call against USA playing in CAN

 

[SI90]

Hagens throwing the body

 

[jj cale]

No dice there Perreault

 

[hockey20000]

did not picture usa being in a tough game with germany 32mins into the game i got to say

 

[SI90]

Germany pressuring hard

Isles Nelson and Eiserman developing chemistry and I’m loving it

 

[Canada4Gold]

I don’t think the delayed offside rule uses the wording possession but rather touching the puck. I guess one could argue it’s not delayed so touching doesn’t matter.

 

[MTU34]

College has been good for Eiserman’s game. Never seen him with this much jump

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Eiserman reminds me of Gauthier, mindless shooting every thing at all times

 

[McMozesmadness]

Major credit to the Germans for staying in the fight. Something I’ve come to appreciate about their program internationally. They always show up ready to battle

 

[Chainshot]

This is such a Game 1.

First USA goal review was butchered way more than that call. They’re still ahead on the bad review scorecard

 

[jj cale]

Regardless of the call..................interesting to witness Augustines performance tonight, call never should have had to come come into effect anyway.

Put this one away in the files.

 

[MTU34]

Everything you’ve said about the scenario in this thread is 100% correct. I just hate the way the rule is written

Do you actually think Canada would want the US finishing lower in their group and potentially having to face them earlier in the elimination round?
