Sure, and I agree, but Canada still took that dumb penalty...

It was a penalty but so was the elbow to McKennas head.

Also yes he was shoved into the goalie.

But they could have called penalties against the Czechs in the third too. They watched one team.

HC deserves this for trying to be 'smart' and leaving a lot of talent at home. They need to wake up.

Yeah it kind of sucks for the players that will be forever attached to one of the worst Canadian entrants to the tournament but at the same time they have to take some blame for the lack of discipline was just brutal.

[TenaciousC]

Very fitting for one of Dave Cameron’s “off the board” D picks takes a stupid penalty with 2 minutes left.

Seriously Andrew Gibson….has 7 points on the season. Who the #### is this guy?

Did I mention that call? The last call. On the Canadian kneeing the guy. Genius.

[browna]

Watched all of a few minutes during the Flames intermission.

Management or coaching may not be ideal but the talent there should get them to the sems.

But a brutally selfish penalty when Canada has them on the ropes after the goal, has nothing to do with anyone but that selfish defenseman.

Anyone with a pulse not in Hockey Canada regarding roster selection:

Even more disappointing when Canada finally got solid goaltending. Excited to see George develop

Even though I disagree with some of the selections, there were NO adjustments made by the coaching staff to try and spark them

Coach Cameron "I can't address it"

Great Jon clown.

I hope Parehk likes every negative tweet about this game.

[Dogbert]

The worst part? Everyone will just blame the officials for the loss now, so the piss-poor roster selection and dumb coaching decisions will be forgotten and repeated.

[TheScorpion]

When you act like you know better than anyone else, you run the risk of proving you don't. Moral of the story.

Don't take Zayne, Ends in Pain

[Macindoc]

HC got what they deserved

[Paulie Walnuts]

Oh shut Duthie you ####ing loser. Everytime someone beats Canada it’s a gold medal.

TSN is a piece of junk like Sportsnet.

HB BHNot sure why people are blaming the refs here.. That's just an excuse. That was an obvious kneeing penalty and made the right call with calling a 2 min.

WTF was Cameron thinking on calling a review on the goal. It was obviously NOT goalie interference. Why give up a powerplay.. Canada did defended the penalty but what a bone head call by the bench
