Player in the crease at any time results in play being called dead, so the "goal" is non-reviewable because technically play was called before the puck went in.

"I'm not disappointed with our referees in this tournament. But it's a better of communication – next year we will give the referees the microphones like in the NHL, so they will explain the call from centre ice".

"... We've had discussions on officiating, this is normal – especially from the losing team – but nothing major. We are happy!"

Not disappointed but they still sent Nord packing after the Finland - Russia match. I guess being disappointed would've required him to have actual expectations.

Pavelec made some great saves and Smith managed to get a shutout despite his best efforts at setting up Czech goals so this makes sense.

it's hard to complain when you compare their roster to russia's or canada's.

i wish mozyakin would play a year or two in the NHL. don't see it ever happening, but i'm curious if he could put up similar numbers. looks to be a very good player whenever i see him.

Bobrovsky owns

Mozyakin might be the best active sniper (not based on just this one goal, but his accuracy is uncanny). Shooting just on the side of the goalies head is supposedly one of the hardest places for a goalie to make a save

Ovechkin tries to get Malkin to come to Washington
