NHL reffing is far from perfect...but only an IIHF half wit could botch that penalty. :shakehead

Could someone describe how this cheapshot went down (for the benefit of us lonely souls at work)

What exactly happened, I missed that part?

Gagne got cross-checked from behind right after he scored the goal. He was in that area just before the boards that is considered the "danger" area. This is a real nasty area, and i've gotten a concussion msyelf while getting hit in this area. If anyone watched the Under 18's, Canada's Yellowhorn had the same thing happen to him in a neutral zone battle, and had to be taken off the ice with a stretcher.

I feel really bad for you guys though. I imagine you get commercials while we get to see the cheerleaders. Some of those girls are hawt.

I've seen a couple who were really chunky too, by the way we see them, i personally don't care about them, well I am a female after all.

I think we can put an end to the "refs are cheating for canada" threads. That should have been 5 and a game. I wonder if psycho_dad and his ilk will be as outraged at something like this... yeh right..

I am not watching the game, but based on the comments here it looks like it should have been 5 and a game.

THe cross check: kind of like a Dale Hunter on Turgeon - post goal celebration, arms raised, totally defenseless while getting creamed into the boards.

Gagne was celebrating his goal and the Slovak cross checked him into the boards from behind

He wasnt creamed into the boards. It looked like he faked to me.

Oh come on!! Thanks refs, way to repay us on that botched call. You give the Slovaks a 2 man advantage!
