[Bloggins]

This ref is a bozo

That was charging? I hope the Olympics aren't called like this

No, we get real referees for the Olympics.

The crowd is so pissed they are even booing penalties against Norway.

I feel bad for people that wasted their good money to go to this atrocity.

 

[Aaron Vickers]

I can’t believe we’re playing like this against Norway.

Miss the game against the Swiss??

 

[Aaron Vickers]

Anyone know who is reffing the game between Canada and the States? A part of me is pulling for a referee who likes physical contact.

 

[shakes]

I forgot which jerseys Canada was wearing and honestly, didn't notice a dropoff in play

Pierre McGuire is getting so fed up that he is going craaaazy.

A MONSTER hit followed by a MONSTER penalty - Pierre

 

[Westcoasthabsfan]

Please bring back Paul Romanuk and Bob Mackenzie.... I cant stand listening to these two guys much longer.....

 

[Artyukhin*]

The Minnie vs Calgary game can't come soon enough

For the love of god, no more penalties for either side. I just can't take it anymore, I'm going crazy watching this game. Any time either team tries to get some momentum, a penalty is called (which is about every 30 seconds) and then everytime a team gets a powerplay, a penalty is called that negates it.

That charging call against Bolland was the worst I've seen in the tournament so far. He didn't leave his feet even an INCH. It's called hockey. However, the sad thing is that a lot of the Canadian penalties have been just, the team discipline is atrocious. I feel even worse for the Norwegians because the majority of their calls against have been incredibly suspect, more so then Canada.

This is possibly the worst hockey game I've ever watched in my entire life.

Since it will be a "neutral" official, we will more than likely be stuck with some other European idiot.

As much as I despise Rob Matsouka, I hope that Canada and the US get together, go to the IIHF and request he calls this game. He is a terrible official, but at least he knows the North American game.

I was waiting for 'That's two minutes for being strong.'

 

[gobolt7]

I really wish I had these games live on TV, these refs sound like they have met the qualifacations to work in the NHL.

 

[Westcoasthabsfan]

It appears as though the crowd in Vancouver are booing ANY penalty called, not just those against Canada.

So there is a crowd there not just a bunch of cardboard cutouts?

I actually like Miller and Mcguire much more appeasing than HNIC's bob Cole and Harry Neil

Every part of me is hoping for that.

 

[insider]

[shakes]

Who reffed the Canada-Finland game? I don't recall that guy being so bad.
