TSN: Team USA U-18 has victory stolen from them in Edmonton

[chizzler]

What part of "there is no replay" is escaping your understanding of the situation?

Yup, that makes it right.

Reverse the scenario. USA scores at the end and Canada decides to review it and overturn it. USA Fans would be upset about changing the rule

Its too bad also because it was a great game. You don’t get games like that often in August. The looks on team USA kids faces after OT was awful. The good news that was USA’s U18 B team holding there own.

May not be a good goal but giving up one late like that and putting it in the hands of the officials feels more like choking than being robbed

I'll concede that you do have somewhat of a valid point.

With under a minute remaining, Team USA attempted an ill-advised shot at the empty net that resulted in an icing.

I don't know if the opportunity to pad one's stats with an ENG is too tempting, but it was a really bad decision. I absolutely hate that play and am never surprised when it ends in disaster either directly or indirectly, as it did last night.

Either gain the center line, or soft dump.

This is a ridiculous post.

They got screwed plain and simple.

Lol.... There's really no defending this. Please stop. Clock read 0.0 well before the puck went in the net. Game is over when the clock reads zero, no?

The fact remain that the rules were in place before the tournament and rules were agreed upon. Due to the issue if video not avail in Red Deer teams agreed there would be no video review. For those complaining about Canada cheating or ref bias need to get over themselves, yes it was a goal, mistakes happen and the four officials on the ice called it a good goal. Sun came up today as expected.

Once jack Hughes hits the NHL, the United States will be the best hockey nation for a decade minimum.

I read about it a bit and thought it must have been pretty close, and knew about there being no review. Then I saw just how not close it actually was. Yeah, US got screwed.

After a screw job like that, who cares about winning the bronze. Should have been playing for gold. Backwards rules, and blind/deaf officials giving them a game they didn't deserve.

Reverse the scenario. USA scores at the end and Canada decides to review it and overturn it. USA Fans would be upset about changing the rule

We would say the same thing. "That should not count. It went in after the horn expired".

Canada's response:

I should have said unless they pull some gimmick again and don’t let the best young players play for the USA like that last bogus World Cup or whatever it was where they didn’t want the USA rolling through the competition.

Blame the rule then, instant replay is for fraction of a second calls. The ref saw the puck go in but I doubt he can tell .01 seconds from 0.0 seconds in real time.

Canada's response:

nah, the typical response would be the old stand bye about "this being our game". Cringe every time I read/hear it which I say as a proud Canadian

 

[Orr Fourever]

Sorry you Guys got hosed. Happy it went are way though.

They didn’t give anything up late. The game had ended.

His comments are hilarious.

this is the most reasonable post in the thread, which is weird

I would hate it USA won it when there was no time. Yes the rules are rules. To say they accepted it at the beginning doesn’t make it better.
It would be an empty win. Get it?

I know it sucks to be on the shitty end of a blown call. The B's lost more than one game due to unacceptable reffing, lost good players due to poor rules, Did you simply say "them's the breaks", when Cooke blindsided Savard without a penalty, or when the Bruins lost games because the refs/video replay couldn't see the puck in the net even though it had to be there...It was a shitty win and the entire thing is tainted because of it. I'm a proud Canadian who WON'T be puffing my chest out over this one.

This is part of sports. They are officiated by humans, not machines. Sometimes it goes for you, sometimes against.

 

[The Hockey Tonk Man]

wow, USA got robbed

Usually the sporting event is over when time runs out and the horn sounds.

Both happened well before he puck went in the net.
