Looks like Canada may be without Schneider

Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
The @IIHFHockey disciplinary committee at the WJC is having a hearing on Team CAN ���� defenceman Braden Schneider’s illegal hit to the head in yesterday’s game vs. Germany ����. A decision on his status for today’s game vs. SVK ���� should be forthcoming.


Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
GER ���� getting back one goalie and two defencemen for their next game vs. SVK; no positive tests in the bubble; steps have been taken to ensure the CAN ���� goal vs. GER ���� that was counted (but shouldn’t have counted because time had expired) won’t happen again in the tournament.

He'll probably get the standard one game suspension.

Game clock issue identified during Canada-Germany game

Following the video review of Canada’s fourth goal against Germany at the end of the first period during their preliminary round game on 26 December, a discrepancy was identified between the game clock and the overhead goal clock of one tenth of a second. Based on the information that the video goal judge had at the time and the referee’s call on the ice., the decision was to award the goal to Canada.

After consultation with all involved parties it was determined that there was a technical miscommunication involving the game and overhead goal clock systems. The IIHF has corrected the issue to ensure proper timing is coordinated in all further reviews. This situation has now been resolved and the IIHF does not anticipate any further issues.

I'm shocked with this information they allowed the goal to stand.

There was more then a tenth of a second between the two. The over head had it at zeroes well before the puck got close to the goal-line and after everything was said and done they still put .2 back on the clock. If it was only .1 off then it still would not have counted, it was probably closer to .4 off.

I am not sure how you can assert that so strongly. The time descrepancy looked razor-thin to me; it seems plausible that the goal could have counted in a 0.1 second window.

We know discrepancy is more than .1 because they put .2 back on the clock.

The overhead showed time had expired with the puck a foot from the goal line. I am making the assumption that the puck needed another .1 or .2 to make it across the goal line after the clock hit zero. Them adding .2 after all was said and done is why I think the discrepancy of just being .1 doesn't make sense to me.

The discrepancy was 0.2.

Make the ref stay in Edmonton for an extra week after the Tournament.

It's all Canadian officials in this tournament. You can certainly tell in this game as situational reffing going on as every penalty going to the Finns as they lead 2-1.

There is a little bit of a push-back from Suisse.

Hahaha.

Heinola just about stick-handled the puck into his own net while on the powerplay. That would suck.

Schnieder suspended 1 game.

That was a looong sequence without a stick. Made a nice save on a shot 5-hole too. I’m happy to see the shift away from giving a stickless goalie your stick. A player without a stick is completely useless. It was so naturally a part of everyone’s game than it happened to me at all levels of hockey growing up, without any prior agreement amongst the players that I wanted a stick if I dropped mine. Hard to turn down in the heat of the moment, but I was always yelling “no! keep it!”.

Don’t give a goalie your stick kids. You’re useless without it, and it doesn’t really help the goalie.

But you're absolutely right. I also think that if someone's stick breaks on a PK they should be hitting the afterburners for the bench either for a new one or for another defender to hop over the boards.

A player without a stick is completely useless. You're barely even realistically occupying space.

Zary and Pelletier on a line together with Byfield. This should be fun.

Holloway scratched.

Ha.

But Zary missed the net one time!
