Reply to comment by Hascus in Canada defeats rival U.S., advances to world junior gold-medal game against Czech Republic by Genevieves_bitch

It's kind of ridiculous to call a 6-2 loss "they played better" like come on

Did you watch the game? I’m the first the US was ALL OVER Canada. Evened up in the second with the Canadians taking over in the 3rd a bit.

The US had big scoring chances right to the end, two goals called back (one of which could have gone either way), and the only reason Canada won was a goaltender who stood ok his head.

Lol both those were obvious goaltender interference, luke Hughes turn over on the empty better was a perfect representation of team USA's play

I’m a goaltender, have been since I was 8-9 and still play regularly in my 30’s. I also ref.

First one is only interference strictly by the IIHF rules. North American refs would have called it a good goal as it was really incidental contact that also wouldn’t have happened if the D-man didn’t hit him towards the goalie.

Second one was 100% a no-goal

Exactly, first one is a goal in the NHL for sure

We got outshot, the states had 2 disallowed goals and we scored an empty netter. It was a lot closer than any 6-2 game. You should have watched it, it was a good one.
