RedWang 422 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 Everyone complaining about the refs needs to stop. The US was up 2 with under 3 minutes left. They lost because they couldn't hold a lead. Period. Im just discussing what i saw from watching the game. Not complaining. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stillwater 186 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 Note to self: trying to put a puck in front of a goalie in the net = slashing on goalie. She was holding the puck. The American girls were warned earlier in the game about the exact same thing. I realize you'll whine. I'll just post that for truth for everyone else.

kipwinger 8,492 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 I could care less about womens hockey, i'll keep my views on that to myself. But if ud been watching the OT, the officiating was easily the worst ive ever seen. 2 absolutely bogus calls in a row. A netfront battle for a loose puck called as a slash and an obvious penalty shot that was called a crosscheck. Doesnt take away the gold though! Congrats ladies! Hold a lead and you don't have to worry about that kind of stuff. This all reminds me of that time the Chicago Cubs blew a three run lead before Steve Bartman touched a foul ball and the Cubs ended up losing. If you don't blow leads, you don't have to worry about this stuff. Bartman was a scapegoat...so are the refs. Again, congrats Team Canada. 1 rick zombo reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stillwater 186 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 that is terrible and makes me happy I wasn't emotionally invested, but it's irrelevant to the officiating. You're American? Why were you not emotionally invested? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SimonSin 192 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 If any Canadian will say that the slashing call on the US in OT wasn't bulls*** then you're just being a homer. That was probably one of the worst hockey penalties I've EVER seen. 1 RedWang reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hillbillywingsfan 792 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 A guy named "hillbillywingsfan" bragging about "ice dancing". Gotta love the Olympics. You Canadians must love it...we big bad americans cheated you out of a gold. If you didn't hear that story then you haven't watched the Olympics. Kid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'll just post that for truth for everyone else. Bullocks. They were warned to not try and score when a puck gets to the net? It's not like the goalie scooped it up and she was banging away at it. She took one try at it and stopped. No arm went up. Official skates over and decides to call a slash. There's the truth for you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rick zombo 3,739 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 That women's game was great, great hockey (aside from the refs and drunk lineswomen). Like better than 80% of the Wings game I've watched so far this year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wheelchairsuperhero 1,453 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 You're American? Why were you not emotionally invested? I obviously wish the US had won, but I was about as upset as I was when I caught the two man bobsledding team not win gold. Which is to say not really upset at all. Now if the US loses to Canada tomorrow you may find that I've thrown a temper tantrum and destroyed my living room. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rrasco 1,312 Report post Posted February 20, 2014 I thought women's hockey didn't matter? Or does it matter now since Canada won?

Yeah, in some instances they literally tried to murder that guy...but nary a word about how their beloved Cubs (a team I despise with the intensity of a thousand dying suns) couldn't hold a THREE run lead despite a superior lineup and home field advantage. 1 RedWang reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Where is the person that said women's hockey didnt matter in this thread, Can you show me the post of him bragging about the win now ? oh right, you can't because it didn't happen.
