Korbyn Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 In my mind, and in many Canadians, some of the greatest hockey of the year is played in this tournament. The crowds should be so loud in Saskatchewan. If it is anything like 1991, this tournament should be a great success.For those who don't watch the WJHC ... check out this video from last year: Just proves that anything is possible, these players show so much heart which makes this such a great tournament.

NEW.ERA Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Good to see Brandon Kozun and Martin Jones make the team even if Jones isn't the starter. Also really looking forward to watching the all Spitfire line with Top 2 Pick Taylor Hall, Adam Henrique, and Flames prospect Greg Nemisz.

He is out with a concussion though Yeah I thought something was wrong with him because he should have been on the team if he wasn't injured. Also very surprised to hear that Tyler Seguin didn't make the team he's probably going to be the one that knocks off Hall for Top pick in the draft.

DelayedPenalty Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Only 7 times since 1974 has Canada NOT won a medal! Now that's impressive!I know the WJHC isn't very closely followed here in the States, in fact most people don't even know the tournament exists, and that's sad. I must say that the current run of 5 championships in a row has to be considered one of the most dominant performances in hockey history, right up there with the 1970s Montreal Canadiens, or the 1980s Oilers, or even the USSR's run of 5 out of 6 Olympic golds (spoiler only by the 1980 US team, obviously).

Don Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Im excited 3 Caps prospects will be apart of the tournament, Cody Eakin and Stefan Della Rovere for Canada and John Carlson for Team USA.

crashcarson15 Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 Im excited 3 Caps prospects will be apart of the tournament, Cody Eakin and Stefan Della Rovere for Canada and John Carlson for Team USA.Carlson was a pretty special player here in Indiana (USHL). It's real cool to see your team's guys go on and play in the World Juniors (and hopefully NHL down the road). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spyboy1 Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 The NHL network will be showing USA and medal round games. In the past, a few Canada games have been on the NHL Center Ice package.I really love this tournament and seeing the stars before they become stars. It would be nice if Canada were given a run for their money. They've been known to pulverize the field on occasion.

Thats my appeal of minor league sports, to see your guys go on to the next level and succeed. John Carlson will be a special player for the Caps for a long long time.

friarcanuck Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 The tournament is in Buffalo next year, so I'm hoping for the US to have little fan support so I can make the trip down and get some good seats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be nice if Canada were given a run for their money. They've been known to pulverize the field on occasion.Russia certainly gave them a run for their money last year!The sad thing is that some of Canada's top prospects don't even play in the WJHC, because well they are in the NHL now!i.e. Stamkos, Taveres ...

OMMF Posted December 18, 2009 Share Posted December 18, 2009 The NHL network will be showing USA and medal round games.But we have to listen to :censored:ing Gary Thorne. Seriously, NHLN? You couldn't find anyone else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You couldn't find anyone else? Gary Thorne is one of the few U.S. hockey announcers I can actually stand listening to. Ken Daniels who does the Red Wings games on FSDetroit is pretty good too, but then you have to listen to Mickey Redmond's biased ass do color commentary.

philly97flyer Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Just saw that Latvia's starting goalie plays for the Boston Bulldogs of the AJHL. If anyone knows anything about the Bulldogs organization or junior hockey in the US, you should know that Latvia is in for a very long tournament.

randyc Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 11-0 Canada over Latvia...after the 2nd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WJMorris3 Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 You'd think Canada would learn something about sportsmanship. Why not let up, after 5-0 in the first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
