Yah tough break but almost impossible without review to get that call right. Was at the game and I thought it was in with time remaining, after watching it on TSN it quite obviously was not. I thought Canada played well and looked dominant at times but US program is really producing some talented hockey players, they deserved a better fate.Gotta feel for those USA kids. They won it fair and square.
If anything that should wake the Canadian kids up, should have been Russia anyways...outplayed the Swedes all game except the last 2 mins.I'm expecting some major karma biteback tomorrow vs. Sweden unfortunately.
Thats not how hockey works.should have been Russia anyways...outplayed the Swedes all game except the last 2 mins.
I am aware thanks lol. Just saying Russia outplayed the Swedes in the semis imo. The US team showed well, got to be a real gut shot after last night's game.Thats not how hockey works.
The Oil Kings are unlikely to win the WHL championship.Hopefully not the last hockey trophy celebration we see at Rogers Place this season.

They deserved a better fate in the Canada game. But how did that prevent them from playing in OT or the next game. And Canada played really well in the gold medal game, they seemed really happy to win. I doubt they share your sentiment.That has to feel like a hollow victory for Canada. The US deserved much better. They dont even get a medal.
Its a joke really.
The players don’t consider it hollow. I think the previous game motivated them to want to win big to show the world they deserved it.That has to feel like a hollow victory for Canada. The US deserved much better. They dont even get a medal.

It was extremely close and without video replay almost impossible for the refs to make the right call. I sincerely feel bad for the US team but that by no means is the fault of anyone on the ice, refs or players. It may have been a hollow victory for some fans and media but it didn't seem to be for the players.I think it was a major emotional let down for those US kids.
Imagine knowing that you legitimately won a playoff game but had it taken away from you. Not by a judgment call but by an omission. This was conclusive...the USA won that game. No debate.
Thats a lot different from rationalizing a missed tripping call or something like that.
These are teenagers and I doubt very much they were over the stupidity and shock of an injustice of the magnitude they suffered the night before.
