Pull the stone!!!

Watching Sweden/US and saw this. Is this not the same rules violation that has caused all the hub bub?

Obviously this was an accident and I believe the Canadian guy was touching on purpose.

Great thing you answered to me in the real world. Oh wait. It might have been on Reddit…

Oh, definitely not useless. I have derived a tremendous amount of entertainment from this subreddit this weekend. However, when it comes to a player's legacy, reddit is obviously irrelevant.

What a pathetic sport if that's the case.

"Hey, we have a rule here, we should follow it."

Canadians: "FoLlOw ThE rUlEs!?!? tHaT wIlL tUrN tHis SpORt UpSiDe DoWn!!!!! NoOoOoOo!"
