2025 FISU Hockey - Torino, Italy

[AUS Fan]

The only games I see on FISU TV are semis, Bronze and Gold. US women have 1 game with KAZ on 16th.

 

[AUS Fan]

Results today: CAN Women 6-2 over SVK to finish 3-0. Not sure when next game is.

CAN Men came up against a hot goalie again, outshot them 50-14 but were down 1-3 with 1:51 left in 3rd. Pulled the goalie and scored with :54 left. Pulled the goalie at :40 and scored again at :34 to tie the game at 3.
Nothing in OT. CAN scores twice in SO to win 2-1.
Next game is 16 Jan vs SWE. Quarter finals start Jan 19.

USA over KOR 12-3.
Canada playing JPN now, up 1-0. Edmonds in goal, Richard backup.
If they win, and they should, they'll play USA.
USA is composed of players from ACHA. Teams like UNLV, Purdue, Liberty, Arizona and others.
Better than the Club team guys they used to send.

Am I mistaken or did they send a NCAA-3 team last time?

Am I mistaken or did they send a NCAA-3 team last time?

I think so. Prior to that they were Club players. They have a D1, D2 and D3 division in the ACHA. Their roster is D1 players for their conference. Not sure how that stacks with D3 from last time. Too many teams to keep track of. CAN up 5-0 after 1.

Team USA losing by less than five is basically a victory.

Team USA losing by less than five is basically a victory.

We'll see later today. I expect CAN to win.
Edit: I should say later tomorrow....

Czechia was 1st in Pool A due to a hot goaltender in their game vs Canada. They ended up on the other side in their game vs Ukraine (shots 38-24 for CZE). This is an upset as UKR only one round-robin game. Expect SVK to win the Semi in a repeat of their round-robin match.

Canada has not lost, to my recollection, to USA when they have been drafted from the ACHA. It might be close for the 1st, but I suspect they will pull away in the 2nd and 3rd (much like the '23 final, but that was a NCAA Div3 team).

Both US Teams, men and women, are from ACHA

 

[AUS Fan]

CAN women lose to CZE 2-1 in OT. Great game by the CZE goalie, making 51 saves. DAL goalie Grace Beer made 14 saves including 3 breakaways, as CAN was a bit "sloppy" at times.

Fun game to watch. CZE 2nd time at FISU, winning Bronze in 2023. CAN has medaled at every FISU.
