Would be more suited to a different thread, but apparently Canada has already qualified its first athletes to Milan-Cortina 2026 in men's hockey.

Canada is going for gold at the Women’s Worlds after a 4-0 victory over Czech Republic.

How surprising 

As long as we beat the EVIL Americans. 

 

(in jest of course)

GOLD FOR CANADA AT THE WOMEN’S HOCKEY WORLDS!! GOLD FOR CANADA AT THE WOMEN’S HOCKEY WORLDS!! GOLD FOR CANADA AT THE WOMEN’S HOCKEY WORLDS!!  

 

In a game that pretty much had it all, Canada defeats United States 6-5 to win gold!! They get their revenge on the United States after losing in the gold medal match (who else but Hilary Knight with the goal?) on home soil during last years World Championships, to defeating them as hosts this year. Danielle Serdachny with the game winning goal in OT, after a Canadian powerplay was awarded after too many Americans were on the ice. Shoutout to (defender) Ella Shelton as well, she had an incredible save on a potential gold medal winning goal in the closing stages of the 3rd period.

Canada win gold at the Men’s -18 Hockey World Championships, defeating the Evil Americans @orangeman 6-4! Bit of a questionable decision for United States to pull their goalie with around 3 1/2 minutes to go, only down 5-4.

Canada start off the Men’s Hockey World Championships with a 4-2 win over Great Britain. Didn’t watch the match or anything, but I was expecting a whole lot more. 

[Josh 11,790]

2-0 with a 5-1 win over Denmark. Game was much closer than the scoreline suggests. Still not convinced. 

 

Bedard with another 2-goal game, and is up to 5 points on the tournament.

Tavares scores just 15 seconds into OT on route to a pathetic 7-6 win over Austria today. Canada was up 6-1 (!!) heading into the 3rd, and we almost blew it. Binnington was fucking awful (he’s not a good goalie, but I wasn’t expecting this), letting in those 6 goals on 21 shots (5 goals on 9 shots in the 3rd), and the coaches are brain dead for not changing goalies at 6-4/5. Not at all happy with the win.
