(I tagged my Russian friend in a Facebook status... the Cold War may be heating up.) Title: Re: Olympics US v.

I saw it on replay. They ruled that the net was dislodged before the shot.Title: Re: Olympics US v.

Russia Hockey Post by: pmull on February 15, 2014, 11:42:12 AM Quote With 4:40 remaining in the third period, Fedor Tyutin sailed a shot past United States goalie Jonathan Quick, giving Russia an apparent lead. The play went to review, and the goal was overturned. After some confusion as to why (NBC announcers originally though it was due to a high-stick call) cameras seemed to capture the net off its mooring ever so slightly. In the NHL, this would have been a goal thanks to Rule 78.4 Scoring a Goal (see paragraph one) because the goal was only slightly dislodged. International rules do not allow for this kind of flexibility. http://msn.foxsports.com/olympics/story/why-was-russia-s-go-ahead-against-usa-goal-disallowed-021514 |
