good goal! get over it Finland

 

[JustaFinnishGuy]

No, it wasn't a good goal. No, it doesn't matter. Bad defending from FIN.

 

[chauron]

Should have been disallowed but that's life, moving on

 

[FinPanda]

It wasn't.

 

[SevenOfSpades]

Agreed with the announcers. Net comes off its moorings before the puck crosses the line, and attacker pushes the goalies leg which pushes the puck across the goal line. But I’m no referee.

 

[Patrik Barkov]

Obviously not but let's just move on. Comments about rigged referees are pointless.

 

[OilerPensfan97]

I initially thought no, but it appears to follow rule 98.1, so now I say yes.

 

[Fried Tree Sap]

That rule only applies if the net was dislodged by a defending player.

Not even a difficult call to make. If this were a soccer game, the video judge would already be dead.

That's about a defensive player moving the net.

 

[LOFIN]

Bad calls happen, good thing this was the first game in the tournament not the last. Move on.

 

[kunekune]

In Finnish broadcast they told that video ref said that puck was in goal before goal moved.

That's the last game that video ref gets in this tournament.

In Finnish broadcast they told that (video) ref wasn't using that rule.

They legitimate saw from replay that puck passed the goal line before goal moved.

 

[Makar Goes Fast]

i didnt think it was, i would be interested in offical word as to why it counted.

It was counted because video ref saw that the puck in inside before goal moved.

They told that in Finnish broadcast.

They told that in Finnish broadcast.

well as a canadian I'm glad the ref hasn't had his eyes checked in a while, but wouldn't video replay show that he was wrong? what was the point of teh video replay if they wouldn't overturn something so obvious?

Can't tell from the overhead, but they had a view from the corner on TSN that showed it was clearly off.

 

[Past Considerations]

Would be nice to see the exact angles the video ref have.

 

[Canadian Game]

I was shocked that it counted and would mad if that happened against Canada.

 

[Henkka]

Of course it's a good goal when Canada scores.

Would have been disallowed for any other country.

 

[Brun0]

I'm really sick of rigged reffing, and NA vs europe, they always favor them selfs, horrible

 

[bobber]

If your a Fin goal was not good. Canadian it was great!

 

[Brun0]

2 huge mistakes. and yeah it was told that ref told that the reason goal was accepted was that i crossed the line before

not sure if the ref was drunk?
