The ref was already on their side. The Latvian team played most of the time 4 against 5 Czechs. And now this theater, which I obviously somehow missed, this is too much. Got to boo the refs out.

No, i dont think the ref was all that bad, there was a bit of a stick on 53 so he could of give penalty to the both of them, but he choose not to.

Sometimes you need to jump when your blade takes an unfortunate turn against the ice surface and risks twisting your knee ligaments to bits. I can't tell whether the motion in Prorok's left foot required that this time, though.

"How can somebody who's sitting at home in front of a computer call this a dive? You don't know if he's got a bad ankle, or a torn bursa sac or something." Prurok's a lousy player and he'd make a lousy color commentator.

Well, it didn't seem that you saw the game. Penalties were 22:4 favoring Czechs and it wasn't funny at all. No penalties for at least 5 dives I have counted from Czechs. I just can't stand this kind of playing :shakehead

05-06-2006, 10:10 AM
Not to make this into a Crobsy vs Ovechkin thing but I gotta pipe up.

This dive pretty obvious but in all honesty, this is not as bad as Ovechkin flopping around like he's been shot with a rifle at the WJC when he was 17...then getting up as soon as the penalty is called to play on the PP.

It'll be a long time before he can build his own respectability back up with those who saw that display of embarrassment.

Things got so bad in the 2nd period when the ref tried to give the game to Canada so the Soviet linesman started taking Canadian penaltys, and nobody blamed him. Are you gooing to say thats not a fact to?

Ok if you like to belive so. Though if you ever get a chance again watch the 2nd period, I did a few weeks ago, its a disgrace. If you want to talk to me after you have seen it PM me about it.

I was hyped when I got to see that game and all the big stars. I am born in 1981 so missed out on them in their prime. Though half way through the 2nd period I got pretty pissed infront of the TV, watching a 19 year old hockey game, thats how much of a farce thoose tournaments where. Just my humble opinion though.

Since you watched the game, what did you think of the uncalled Soviet hook on Bourque that resulted directly in a Soviet goal?

My point is, you can question the calls and non-calls of every game ever played. The Soviets lost. Canada won. It happened 19 years ago. Get over it.

But at the point where they both do it, it's still a moot point. Even if the Czechs or Russians are somehow nationally "prone" to it.

When I watch the Sharks commentary, whenever a Shark player dives to get the call, it's called: "great job to draw the penalty by [insert Shark player]." When the opponent dives, it's called for what it really is - diving.

No nationality will ever admit to being wrong or inadequate or prone to cheating. I can say the same thing about Forsberg as I can say about Crosby as I can say about Kovalchuk and Ovechkin. (**)it happens.

I can't stand this type of political correctness. Czechs are the masters of diving, they've shown their expertise countless times in the past; everyone does it nowadays but they're the ones who have perfected the art.

Not all. There are a few proud players out there. But there is defenitly more divers out there today then it where 20 years ago. The only way you are gooing to fix that is by giving out tougher penaltys to thoose who dive. Don't know why the NHL have given up on the suspension on dives idea. I've seen a ton of dives in the PO's but not a single suspension.
