This is the definition of World Juniors to me. The spirit, drive, relentlessness, joy. Definitely at least near the very top for best World Junior games ever
This was just...wow! Back and fore they went, so much drama and emotion. Man this was hard to watch back then. Fortunately we came on top and won it all 😁
This was an utterly horrible game to watch. Finland decides to go for a goal-scoring contest against CANADA?!? Now years later we know that we had an absolutely stacked team, but back then I almost had a heart attack.
correct me if wrong but, does canada have somekind of spell on them in QUARTERFINALS against finland.. from 06 olympics to today have canada won any quarterfinal against finns?
Canadian goaltenders definitely haven't always been the best. Between 2010-2014 the position was shaky, Fucale was good enough in 2015 with a stacked team in front of him, and then Blackwood sucked in 2016, both Hart and Ingram were inconsistent in 2017, but Hart, DiPietro, and Hofer have all been really good in 2018, 19, and 20. Devon Levi hasn't looked shaky yet, but this Canadian team hasn't really let anyone test him.
when you got Mikko Rantanen in 2nd line you know the team is decent

Holy shit this team. Aho, Laine, Puljujärvi, Rantanen, Hintz. The list goes on and on. Like team Canada 2005.,
Stacked.
kappanen
No doubt this was Finlands version of Canada 2005
🔥 Laine - Aho - Puljujärvi
🔥 Kalapudas - Hintz - Rantanen
🔥 Saarela - Nättinen - Kapanen

Fins really got sewered with the Canada Matchup in the Quarters. Once they best them it was like destiny this team was gonna win it on home ice
The Finns went from this stacked team to the relegation round next year, holy
Our coach was dogshit in 2017
Yup! It was painful.
Finns had some dominant underage players that year.
Fins were unreal
Yep.. Laine, Aho, Rantanen, Hintz, Maatta, Kapanen, Puljujarvi, Kahkonen, Juolevi and all others :D
@@Backwayonly Maatta wasn’t there. He is already 27. And this happened six years ago
Just imagine if Heiskanen played on this team
Obviously the Fins were the better team in 2016 but everyone is ignoring Canadas roster, it’s above average canadas regular rosters
Canada was awful that year…. Chychrun was cut lmfao

2008 WJC quarterfinals. That's it.
Even Canada wants to be like Finland allowing Virtanen to play 😂
When you have the next Wayne Gretzky (Mitch marner) and still lose
Do you have the whole game
Interesting username
mackenzie blackwood really costed us this game wow
