2025 World Junior Championship discussion thread

  • We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.

    What This Means for You:

    • If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
    • If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
    • Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
    • Our 2025 light and dark themes were lost, so we are rebuilding them. Light theme is currently available, but work in progress

    Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.

A long shift for the Americans as Finland just commands the puck in the o-zone. Two Americans collide (Hutson & Moore) allowing Pieniemi access to move into the top of the circle. He beats Augustine clean with a wrist shot.
 
Leonard chicken winged the player's stick then fell. Ref: No way. No way. No way.

Leonard unfortunately is diving all over the place trying to draw a PP.

Yeah, this is eye opening. It was so obvious. No grey area. He totally took the stick and dove like a mermaid.

Leonard is shameless. Will be something to watch for when he is in the NHL.
 
Yes. His draft year was 2024, but he didn't get drafted. He'll get drafted this year. He's having an outstanding year in Liiga & is the top goalie at this tournament.

He's 19 in April, so he can come back to WJC next year. He's sturdy & has quick legs.
He's 6ft I'm guessing that's why he didn't get drafted. I wonder in which round he'll be picked.

They've been fining players recently (Dougie Hamilton is a recent one). They need to crack down on the shameless diving absolutely.​
 
3-3 after 2.

Americans really came on in the final half of 2nd. You could feel their desperation.

Great goal by Cole Hutson. He also assisted on Svoboda's goal.
