Wtf has just happened in the end of the game? Polish D just grabbed an Italian player with two hands and pushed his head to the board. The kid is taken away with emergency and there's no penalty???

It looks like he hurt his back by going awkwardly into the boards . I dont see any head contact. There was no good camera angles on the stream, but I think it would be at most a minor penalty.

I agree. Clear 2 minutes for interference. Injury was unfortunate. :/

we've got a cracker going for the gold here. Slovenia and Ukraine tied at 3.

I actually did switch to GB - China, game seemed over. Pretty big surprise and no Clara costing points for Italy.

Was there a reason Clara didn't play in this tournament?

Likely a longshot in terms of NHL potential since this was the Division 1B tournament but was there anything to see in Italy's Alessandro Segafredro?

Five goals in five games playing with Tommaso De Luca and has also played briefly in the Swiss League.

Took a shot at playing in North America and had 10 points in 17 games for Seattle as a 16/17-year-old but then didn't stick with Winnipeg or Prince Albert the following year.

He is Brynas' starting goalie and felt the club season is more important which, in his case, is probably true.

Yep. Makes a lot of sense. And by the looks of things, it doesn't seem like him playing for Italy would have made a difference in terms or promotion.
