Should the IIHF have the USA and Norway redo their game in case it was a big fluke?
No disrespect to the Norwegians, I'm a firm believer that Norway beating them is a huge fluke and robs the Americans of truly accomplishing what their capable of. I've spent the last few days in pure disbelief and it just doesn't make sense to me. I spent the entire round robin series watching team USA play great hockey it's just not fair.
If the United States lose again I will face that Norway deserved the win, but I am just 100% sure it was a fluke and does a big disservice to the USA and the IIHF.

Considering how Reddit recruiting sometimes gets called the cancer of the SHL, it's amazing how many Reddit-era users didn't recognize a r/hockey copy pasta. Kind of impressive, actually.

Tis a fucking coward who would do this and refuse to apologize, repeatedly in one case, when presented with facts, but I guess that's what kind of fucking people you are. How come, ztevans , you're not talking about how, what? 5/6 of the posters here aren't on teams still in the medal rounds? How about how I had to fucking talk all of them down after their team's got beat the fuck out by Norway and Russia and they wanted to move Ireland to Slovakia? No? No talk of that? Not how maybe the responses in this thread might actually improve the IIHF, even in response to a shitpost, because maybe the system does need to be improved?
Fucking cowards, fucking cunts
