We can only hope!!!

I've emailed Hockey Canada and TSN about the lack of coverage. Even a live video stream would be nice

 

[Jabba11]

Charles Hudon = Pierre McGuire's Monster...only if this was covered by TSN hum?!

Canada have now won this tournament 14 of the past 16 times it has been held.

Wow somebody scored on Canada lol........not including the Sweden round robin game loss, Canada beats Slovakia 3-0, Switz 6-0, Czechs 6-1, Russia 5-0 and Sweden 4-1.

Pretty impressive considering they had no Stamkos, Hall, Tavares, etc......and were considered by many to be offensively challenged.

This 'D' group could be considered among the best in a few years time and could pass the 1985 guys with ease. Amazing when you consider guys like Pulock, Graham and Curcuroto were cut from the team.

When you play a lot games in a short period, it tends to show towards the end of the tournament.

whew....I'm glad Canada had that 3 day break from yesterday to today!
It makes all the difference in winning the gold!

Canada dominates U18 Ivan Hlinka again, 4th year in a row!!

Another dominating performance by Team Canada at the Hlinka tourney.

This 1994 group of d-men could be some of the best in years out of Canada, led again by the Western group of kids.

Potential TOP 10 picks in Dumba, Reinhart, Reilly, Pouliot, Koekkoek & Matheson.

These guys put on a dominating performance against the Russian national team, only giving up 7 shots which is almost unheard of!!

Goaltender Daniel Altshuller could be a riser and a few guys up front like Hudon, Monahan, Anethesiou, etc.

Team USA might want to start sending their best guys and I bet they are thinking about it!!

Does anybody have the list of leading scorers of the tourney? Thks

Does anybody have the list of leading scorers of the tourney? Thks

I'll do one soon but it will be difficult as the stats are divided between the two locations where the games are played.

 

[Jabba11]

I'll do one soon but it will be confusing as the stats are divided between the two locations.

Thanks in advance.

I didn't realize all these so called missing players were still U18

Anyone have any other images from the gold medal game?

 

[His Beardliness*]

http://www.tsn.ca/canadian_hockey/story/?id=373718

Canadas coach is probably just an ******* but I wonder what he means by "The way they (sweden) handled themselves throughout the week".

Same kind of whining from Canada as when they thought Sweden celebrated too much after they won against them in Buffalo.

 

[Fregus]

Sweden didn't win so I don't care about this silly tournament.

u mad?

He's paying them a compliment.
He thought that they won the gold medal on Monday after they beat Canada 5-1 and that they were great during the tournament.
He was surprised because they were very good throughout the week even though they didn't have the best team on paper.

No, that's not what he says at all.

Canadian head coach Steve Spott revelled in the victory after the game. He accused the Swedes of videotaping Canadian practices and went on to criticize their general demeanour at the tournament.

"I can tell you I really believe the Swedes won their gold medal last Monday," Spott said. "The way they handled themselves throughout the week, it was a little bit surprising to me. They just did things that I thought were uncharacteristic of them."

"(Sweden) were a team that was pretty proud and I think took us light," Spott said. "We learned a good lesson Monday night but we were just hoping to get this opportunity because we knew we were better than we were last Monday. Thankfully our boys bought into our game plan and executed it to perfection."

I know for a fact that Matheson is from Quebec.

 

[jfb392]

No, that's not what he says at all.

Whoops, I only bothered to read from "I can tell you.." and on, so that's a fail on my part.
Still, the jealously you've shown throughout this thread is hilarious.

Who cares what he says though?
Almost no one cares about this tournament, even in Canada, so it's not like everyone is going to make a big deal about it and he's just trying to stir the pot.
Plus, he's just being honest.
If he says something, maybe Sweden won't try it again now that they know he's aware of it.
I'm sure he's happy that in the end they were good enough to still come out on top even though the opposition had been watching them.
It's not so much whining as it is gloating.
