Man, that's a rough one after the missed chop from above earlier. Clear high stick though, and we're really losing on goaltending.

 

[Chainshot]

they review penalties now? the iihf is like the 3rd world of hockey

NCAA also reviews penalties.

 

[MNRube]

They play baseball in Sweden? Assuming not from anytime I’ve seen a Euro try to throw a ball

 

[majormajor]

By the NHL rulebook it is a penalty whether ostlund touches the puck or not. It's a "wild swing". I'm assuming the WJC rulebook is different.

 

[Dakota Sioux]

They got it right

 

[Mickey Marner]

That should do it.

 

[2014nyr]

Sweden got no right to complain after that Swiss game

that was flat out absurd

 

[Barrie22]

Mike is f***ing dumb in this one. He said the exact opposite for a high stick in the second.

As long as you touch the puck its not a highstick penalty.

 

[AZviaNJ]

Right call

 

[hockeyprospects9]

Knew what would eventually happen with Hävelid in goal

 

[Seiza]

Can't t get a more obvious 2+2 than that.

 

[Nac Mac Feegle]

Pretty straightforward call.

 

[svartgul]

Congratulations USA. Exciting final atleast!

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Time to ice these snowmen

They made up for it with a soft call on Casey on a trip that has happened 100x today.

 

[NyQuil]

Crowd booing lol. That’s as blatant as it gets.

They’re yelling “boo-urns”.

 

[Fossy21]

Wow our first PP from our paid off refs. We must have underpaid

You scored on a 6 on 5, don't be disingenuous. As much of a penalty as that was, yours earlier was twice as much of one, and was never reviewed.

 

[2014nyr]

NCAA also reviews penalties.

absurd. if they miss it they miss it. sucks for whoever gets screwed but in the end it evens out

 

[Sergei Shirokov]

Kinda stupid that if he just barely nicks the puck it's the difference between 4 mins & nothing

 

[Romang67]

As long as you touch the puck its not a highstick penalty.

Again, as per the rules, that's not true.

 

[theslatcher]

Crowd booing lol. That’s as blatant as it gets.

Booing because they didn't call the American high sticking.

 

[Mickey Marner]

Just drop the puck

 

[DamonDRW]

Very boring game. Uncharacteristic for wjhc finals

 

[WarriorofTime]

They should play four corners and attack when they come too aggressive. No shorthanded opportunities.

 

[NyQuil]

Wow our first PP from our paid off refs. We must have underpaid

Well, you’ve got the exchange rate and then the service fee….
