Canada loses 1-0 in U-18 exhibition

"Canada's under-18 men's hockey team lost 1-0 in a shootout to the Czech Republic in an exhibition game Sunday."


http://www.tsn.ca/canadian_hockey/news_story.asp?ID=132769&hubName=canadian_hockey

 

From the hockeycanada site:

BRECLAV, Czech Republic - Zach Hamill assisted on Canada's first two goals and paced our Under-18 Team to a 5-3 win over Switzerland in the opening game of the 2005 Under-18 Junior World Cup. Canada's next game is Wednesday versus Sweden.

 

Hmmm, funny they mention Hamill's two assists and ignore Toews' hat trick.

Canada will face the Czechs in the final. Russia will play Finland for 3rd. Slovakia and the US will play for 5th. Switzerland and Sweden for 7th.

 

I wish the game was on T.V. I enjoyed watching the under 18 in April.

 

U18: Canada to face Czechs for gold

http://www.tsn.ca/canadian_hockey/news_story.asp?id=133383

Canada's under-18 men's hockey team finds itself in familiar territory - playing for a world championship gold medal.

Canada advanced to the final of the under-18 Junior World Cup hockey tournament Saturday with a 3-2 semifinal victory over Finland. The Canadians will face the Czech Republic in the final.

 

Any news on the gold medal game?

The server died going into the third with Canada leading 4-1.

 

TSN just posted the final. 5-3 CAN!

http://www.tsn.ca/canadian_hockey/

 

I just saw that as well. Thats incredible 9 Gold Medals in 10 years.

 

Why does the US team often suck at this tournament? Is their whole U18 program geared to the IIHF WC?

 

I really don't think this is considered as a tournament where you win "a gold medal" and for sure you don't win a World Championship. For European nations it's the biggest tournament for preparing to the U18 Worlds, but also a one held in a pre-season.

But still, obviously a good performance from Canada.

 

U18: Canada beats Czech Rep for gold

http://www.tsn.ca/canadian_hockey/news_story.asp?id=133489

Canada defeated the Czech Republic 5-3 on Sunday to win the Junior Under-18 Cup hockey tournament.

Mitch Fadden of Victoria scored twice for Canada while Zach Himill of Port Coquitlam, B-C., Logan Pyette of Milestone, Sask., and James Sheppard of Sackville, N.S., added singles.

Jonathan Bernier of Laval, Que., made 21 saves to help Canada win the event for the ninth time in 10 years.

 

Simply because their better players do not attend. Those who have made the NTDP do not participate in this event.
