LOL at the reffing. Brutal

 

[Daisy Jane]

Truly we should give the US players credit for playing the cleanest game in the history of hockey.

I'm v. impressed.

 

[Loosie]

Oh my goodness....it's a Canada PP!

 

[NyQuil]

Finally.

 

[Follix]

Obvious tripping call again this a joke and an insult to the sport

 

[CantLoseWithMatthews]

USA deserves to lose. Canada deserves to win. Refs deserve to be shot into the sun

 

[PG Canuck]

HOLY SHIT CANADA IS GETTING A PP???????????

 

[SanderSen]

Yes, the refs have missed some. Canada should have more penalties than the US, there should be some for both. Why pound the donkey bloody.

 

[Rygu]

A Canadian power play?

Am I hallucinating?

 

[LastOne2100]

Oh my god it happened!

 

[TruKnyte]

f***ing finally.

 

[Matt24]

Refs just the memo. "Call one or you're never working again."

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

there's supposed to be no bodychecking but there has been several that have gone uncalled this game.

I think you're allowed some contact if you're in the act of going for the puck.

 

[BlackDogg]

Someone must have lost a limb.

 

[Get North]

That's what it took to get a penalty and only 1 ref saw it.

 

[Captain Bowie]

No problem, I try to be objective but I do think Canada has been the more undisciplined of the two teams.
The rules in women's hockey are iffy though and don't seem to be enforced consistently, there's supposed to be no bodychecking but there has been several that have gone uncalled this game.

The problem is not that Canada has taken more penalties. It's that they've taken several and the US has taken none. Watching this game there is no way that should be the case. Should they be even? I don't know, probably not. But it should be more like 6-4 than 4-0.


EDIT: 4-1 now, we got a PP. Guess we can't complain any more?

 

[cactusjack]

americans got control, no whistle, than a whistle without possession...

 

[Del Preston]

The back ref had to call it. The idiot near the hit wasn't going to.

 

[snipes]

Finally holy ****

 

[donghabs98]

A Canadian Power play? Is this real or am I dreaming?

 

[Daisy Jane]

Wait? What?
we get a powerplay? what wizardry, voodoo and BS is this?

 

[jj cale]

O.K gals, lets make this count.

 

[Sheppy]

Shannon Szabados hair flowing out the back of her lid, you just know she parties. What a beauty.

 

[Rygu]

A push using her stick lol
Even if it were a push with her gloves that's not allowed

Oh I didn't know pushing was a penalty. Point taken.

 

[Bixby Snyder]

f***ing homer refs
