Oh well. Germany played well, and got beat by the KHL All Stars by 1 PP goal. Not bad.

That was a poo poo call and a poo poo end to the game

It was a pretty blatant high stick though, not the refs fault

It’s a pretty not-great way to decide the winner. I would have been happier if the rules made it a five-on-four.

Germany shouldn't be too sad, because they're going to get the gold medals approximately 7 days from now when half that team of russian-affiliated players pops hot

This is only Not Russia's second gold so it hasn't really been a concern for organizers.

Are the Russians trying to sing their national anthem? Looked like they were shouting something at least.

why would they do that, it's not like Russian spies attempted to hack the Olympic tech infrastructure during the opening ceremonies and pin it on the North Koreans or anything like that.

I'll take just changing the gold to "not awarded" and Germany keeps their silver

This whole thing is a farce and the IOC is fine with it
