HF Habs: 2025 World Junior Championship QF elimination games: Canada eliminated in QF again.

[Scotianhab]

Canada's on their heels big time not enough scoring power I don't think on this team

What do you know Cowan the hot dog is cherry picking

Need to hit the damn net as well. Keep shooting wide

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Keep playing Cataford, Howe. gauthier etc who provide little offense over Martone who can.

 

[sampollock]

Bad choice of players

They rarely take guys on and drift away from the net every odd man rush. Opposite of iginla’s game. I guess he’s having hip surgery?

 

[Riddick412]

Yep still worst Canada Jr's team I've seen. Really wish it wasn't driven by politics and had sent the best available players. Hope that changes next year.

What politics do you think it was which NHL teams wanted their certain guys here?

 

[Lafleurs Guy]

Except a few players, this Canada team seems to be mainly composed of future 4th liners. The questionable selections haven't helped that's for sure

Zamuner over Francis and Messier…

 

[sampollock]

Cowan hates going to the net

It had a lot to do with Dave Cameron imo.

 

[LaP]

So we invited 22 Gallagher?

 

[Nedved]

Quit having and drive the net and finish your check. Lazy skating. Guys look gassed.

 

[sampollock]

Canada better watch before a couple of guys get kicked out or 10 minute misconducts Cameron better kick some ace in the dressing room

 

[Scotianhab]

He would have worked his way up with Dickinson by now. U.s. is just better.

US has a a lot of returning players. I always thought they’d be tough to beat.

 

[sampollock]

I'll say one thing George is still playing pretty good

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Beaudoin & Fortescue trying not to fight while wanting desperately to fight.

Insane end to 1st period with an all in scrum.

Yeah they got to calm down there enthusiasm
put their efforts into going to the net to score a drawing penalties

 

[sheed36]

Feisty 1st period. Love it..

 

[Riddick412]

Canada got embarrassed in that period. Need to stop whining about it and do something.

 

[Nedved]

So we invited 22 Gallagher?

Honestly, Gallagher has better hands, also not scared to take guys on. Reminds me of Sergei kostitsyn. Super soft.

 

[Scotianhab]

Entertaining yet frustrating game so far.

Agreed
instead of wrestling and tearing helmets off regroup and start putting some offensive pressure

 

[Nedved]

I'll say one thing George is still playing pretty good

Best word junior goalie that I can remember since price.

 

[sheed36]

Camera person on the ice during stoppage all dressed in white along with the camera. Yes we can still see you.

 

[atrud66]

I wish they'd figure out that they can crash and bang and also play a skill game. Too bad they didn't invite most of the skilled players

 

[Sasha Orlov]

Canada does not skate when they enter the zone, just coast and look for options
