HF Habs: 2025 World Junior Championship Semi-Finals: Saturday, January 4, 3:30 PM & 7:30 PM

[overlords]

a quarter final game shouldn't be this lopsided. gross.

 

[McGuires Corndog]

you're thinking about dogs while they're talking about the cats, man

Bit of a dog guy myself, tbh.

 

[ryan callahan]

I'm stunned as to how average Buium looks so far....

He's not Hutson, don't get fooled by his NCAA stats. Still think he will have a long career as a Spurgeon two way type. Not an offensive dynamo though.

 

[Schooner Guy]

USA filling the net in the 1st. Good game to do some chores or have a nap during.

 

[sampollock]

Hahaha I don't know but a lot of these super elite athletes have some level of it, I think.

Good one
his sister may be... on her HYN commercials

I never believe point totals from Denver.

 

[Habs Halifax]

Canada will win this game but in OT. Get ready for a nail biter

 

[HabsWhiteKnightLOL]

I'm actually torn. I'd never cheer against Canada but Canada winning and getting to the medal round feels counterproductive in the long run as it will just reaffirm whatever they did this tournament was the right call and will be copied again next year.

Exactly. I feel like a dose of humility would serve them right

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Well, USA will walk into Semi-finals.

Sweden, USA, so far.

marcel jenni putting off hardcore bond villain vibes

I'm stunned as to how average Buium looks so far....

without fail... buium scores

 

[Schooner Guy]

I'll never forget the year Canada was beating Switzerland with ease in an elimination game in this tournament and then a Swiss player took out Travis Hamonic for the tournament late in the game. It hurt Canada in the Final as he was one of their top D and I believe was leading them in time on ice.

 

[montreal]

I'm stunned as to how average Buium looks so far....

I'm not, kept saying last year when some were saying they would take him over Lane Hutson that Hutson was clearly the more impressive offensive player when you look at who his teammates were in his Freshman year vs Buium's.

 

[overlords]

hnnnngh that goal

 

[MarkovsKnee]

Ugh, USA destroying Switzerland 7-1..

 

[sampollock]

Ugh, USA destroying Switzerland 7-1..

because they have a solid team... see Canada... weak team

 

[Tyson]

Ugh, USA destroying Switzerland 7-1..

USA is a force, no weaknesses

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

USA is a force, no weaknesses

They are nothing special aside form the first line.

 

[Tyson]

They are nothing special aside form the first line.

Well you may be right but Canada won't beat them if they play again

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Well you may be right but Canada won't beat them if they play again

Even if they brought the right players they would probably lose. Only the players already in the NHL would help.

 

[Whitesnake]

Well....no matter what we thought of Buium in his draft year...in THIS tournament, he should be so much better. Hutson is eating him alive right now.

Gabriel Perreault...what a steal by the Rangers.

yup
good young kid
was hoping habs would have landed him

Anyone else catch the awkward moments between the on ice camera person and Cole Hutson?

Cole kept giving the camera a weird smirk and it would constantly pan over to him, after the ceremonies the camera guy was following him around and Cole looked visibly confused and I’m pretty sure he lipped to a team mate “why is he following me around”

It was funny as hell.

I'm guessing it was the guy dressed in all white?

 

[Whitesnake]

Clear kicking motion = Good goal anyway.
Not clear goalie interference = No goal...

lol
