Exhibition Game Switzerland vs Canada.

[ORRFForever]

Bédard DEFINITELY reminds me of young Sid. Good call

Thanks, mang. TBH, I am sure others have said it before me.

 

[David Suzuki]

It looked exactly like that.

good to know the beers didn't make me too much of a homer

 

[ORRFForever]

You are sounding like a Canadian Junior Hockey with experience...

You don't want to get ahead of yourself...

Note I just drooled over Bedard...

Canada hasn't proved anything yet... not even close...

So I will parrot you and say "Canada is big.. and have one really good line and Bedard"...

"But will they improve and be a complete team"...

Don't let a pre-tournament game tell you otherwise...

In German's defense, he's easily one of the best posters.

Not like Sid .

damn lol germany has really passed switz and slovakis at the under 20 level if thats true it seems.

Yeah, the Germans are the rising hockey power. It's good because, with the current population's replacement rates as they are, we need new entrants.

Bedard looks so confident out there.

In the summer, he was all shot. Tonight, you can see his overall game has really improved - he'll be one hell of a playmaker in this series.

In the summer he was 16-17 vs 20 years old. Now he's 17 vs 19 years, that extra year makes a huge difference to his coverage. But hey, this is a bad Swiss team.

I think Milic will be the starter.

Canada’s defence has been shaky but he has been a wall.

There are several big, immobile defencemen on Team Canada who are going to be exposed against superior opposition.

 

[Bubbles]

That power play is f***ing deadly lmaoo.

one of the best shots in the world In Connor Bedard on one side

NHLer with one hell of a shot and insane one timer in Dylan Guenther on the other

Othmann on the bumper on one side, Wright on the bumper on the other, both big body’s that are pain in the ass when screening the goalie, and both have insane shots if they get open in the slot for the quick give and go from the player on the opposite bumper.

Zellweger on the point.

You can’t win if you’re the PK

embarrassment of riches.

A lot better than putting Bedard in the bumper, like Cameron did. He's now in his preferred spot on the right half boards.

Cameron is still an idiot, despite the win.

i dont think saying germany is above swiss and slovakia at under 20 now is being tricked tbh.. if i said there ahead of the czechs then ye maybe so.

This year the team is for sure below Slovakia - on paper that is.

We should still compete with Austria, Swiss and Latvia though.

Who do you see, on paper, as the best of Austria, Swiss and Latvia?

Clark seemed to fit that bill.

 

[bsu]

Surprised Clarke didn't look better considering he's been playing with professionals. Korchinski is huge, if he fills out he is going to be scary. Zellweger looked great as usual for team Canada, always under control.

Hope the Ducks get Bedard.... lol

Who do you see, on paper, as the best of Austria, Swiss and Latvia?

I see Latvia as the best of the three *on paper - then Austria, Germany and the Swiss as the weakest teams in the tournament.
Austria probably has the weakest team if I were to pick one.

We need Russia back.

Yes He knows his stuff…

 

[Gold Standard]

We need Russia back.

Never heard of 'em.

 

[ORRFForever]

Never heard of 'em.

They've never heard of you, either.

 

[Mathieukferland]

We need Russia back.

Michkov v Bédard at the u18 final was one of the best international games I’ve ever seen, it’s a shame that outside events have prevented that from happening at u20
