US Junior Team Part II

Re: US Junior Team Part II

I thought it was a pretty doggy call, too, dear.

I would have been OK with the call on the US kid if they also called one on the Canada kid that hit him after the shot. Because that hit was worse.

Mr called the call before they blew the whistle. Replay looked like he made no attempt to avoid. Sux esp if they were letting other stuff goes but it was legit.

Yeah kinda hard to avoid the goalie when you get pushed into him.

Was he bumped towards the net? Yes. But, it looked to me like he still could have done more to avoid contact with the goalie like that.

Typical USA hockey. Right when I think they are going to do it, something stupid happens.

I agree. You either take them both or you take neither.

I was waiting for another call inside 2:00, but Canada took care of business before it was necessary.

Yeah, I really thought coincidentals were in order there, too...

Not gonna lie. 20 minutes ago I wasn't too worried about whether we won or lost.

20 seconds ago I just said a little prayer to Herb Brooks. I'm sure God doesn't care but I bet Herbie does.

Except he put his elbow up. If he tucked it down I bet they would have let it go.

Re: US Junior Team Part II

Seriously ref, you reffed 55 great minutes and then you let the crowd get to you into making up that penalty.

Agreed. The refs called it pretty consistent until that goalie interference penalty on Palmieri. I'm sorry, but you can't make that call in a gold medal game with 4min left when he was obviously pushed into the goalie.

Weak.

Go USA. Make that arena quiet.

We learned from you on NYE.

Well, he does have to protect himself. The crossbar is about titty-high.

Especially at that point of the game.

I notice you were silent when your team was losing.
