The ineptitude you saw on display tonight by the refs and tournament organizers is why the Hlinka will always be a second rate tournament. Let's not forget, they didn't just give Canada a goal after the buzzer, they also gifted them a PP that led to their first goal as well. Had the refs been competent, or had there been video review, the play would have never gone on after Robertson's first goal for so long and that penalty would have never occured.
The Hlinka is a great event for scouting, but the results don't mean much when it's organized like an 80s tournament.
Feel gutted for those kids. They constantly hear about how they're the B team, they're well aware most of them wouldn't have a chance at the team if the NTDP players were in play, but they came out and beat an incredibly deep and hyped Canadian team. And the refs and tournament organizers took it away from them.
