2025 World Juniors

On the one hand, kind of a let down the last couple games for ASP given where he started the tournament? At least offensively.

On the other hand ... I think some expectations (including mine) were probably really out of whack after that first game. He still had 10 points as a defenseman and was solid defensively.

To be fair, the whole Swedish team took their foot off the gas against Finland and Czechia.

They got goalied by two good goalies. And Sweden’s goalies couldn’t compensate for it.

I will take the best D since Lidstrom even if he's not the best D since Orr

I'm not discouraged by the past two games. He wasn't playing Slovakia and Borat's native country in the medal round. He had to play an arch rival and a Czech team that, I thought, was capable of gold.

We're in agreement on your 2nd point though

 

[JediOrderPizza]

Did he get scored on 5on5?

 

[saska sault]

Wing prospect on wing prospect violence to start.

 

[FabricDetails]

It be your own fam.

Don't believe so

 

[schuelma24]

Kiiskinen has scored in 6 straight games. Might have something here...

 

[HoweFan]

We have three guys with a chance to make the all star team if there is one

 

[redwingsfannn9191]

That's really the only logic answer.

Or we can be smarter than the rangers and spend 12 mill on 2 really good goalies so we dont screwed if one gets hurt lol

Cap will keep going up ... let's hope they're both very capable nhl goalies for us

Way too soon but I also think gylander might be something

 

[schuelma24]

Finland dominating, up 3-1 in the 2nd and could easily be up more.

 

[HoweFan]

Max Plante has an assist. 3-3

 

[JediOrderPizza]

About time USA won that lol.

 

[Steve Yzerlland]

Got the wrong Svechnikov and the wrong Buium.

ASP named Top Defenseman at the Tourney

Can’t wait for the shit takes on the main boards

But but but Willander!

Honestly Cole Hutson was deserving

 

[RRhoads]

4*

 

[Austrianwing]

Didn't catch much of him playing, but we had four there... Max Plante two points, +2, so doesn't sound like he had a stinker of a tournament at least

Same as last time.

First to win it back to back since Fetisov as well, good company.

Thank you Finland, great tournament. Congrats USA, we get you next year.

Great tournament for Wings prospects, all of them in big roles, well 3 of them at least and almost everyone went home with a medal.

 

[OgeeOgelthorpe]

Great tournament. Big win for Augustine. USA’s defense this year was the weakest I can remember but they pulled it off.

Trolls on here should be punching air that their boy Eiserman played less than 10 minutes in a game that went to OT.

Damn, Finland was good. Also played better hockey at the final, but those damn lucky bounces favored USA.
