Russian referees brutalized two teams that wanted to play intense, but
fair hockey. First period they call everything against Finland and give
a 5+20 for a clean hit, in the end of the game they call against USA and
allow a goal from Finland that went through from the side of the net.
Once again IIHF refreeing shows what a joke it is.

Hmmm.... That happened a few years ago in the NHL. But with the modern
technology available to officials, it's scandalous that it should still be
allowed to happen in games.
Non-NHL cities operate with less resources than big cities with NHL teams.

But even with more resources in the NHL, the fuckers still can't get it
right! Bad calls in Hockey are the norm rather than the exception.
