In the 2022 World Junior Gold Medal Game between Team Canada & Team Finland, we would get one of the craziest sequences in hockey history
2024 World Junior Hockey Championship - กีฬา
These historic mini docs are incredible! As well as the educational components where you explain hockey’s structure and mini plays that make up the game ! Best hockey channel on TH-cam ! You’ve earned your 100k subs 100%
tjust ripped off the style of secret base rewinder but ok
100% he needs to give them a name to categorize them, would make it feel cooler imo
@@gookySB rewind would never cover a moment like this though so who cares. More hockey content is a W and HP’s quality is just as high
@@gooky I love SB, but they didn't invent this style of mini-docs. And for hockey content, this channel is much better for hockey fans like myself and a lot more in-depth in the actual psychology (hence the name) of the game rather than just the story + stats. I'll gladly support both though.
@@dusthimself1062 yeah SB nation didn't invent these mini docs, but it was always weird to me how everything from the editing, writing, and delivery is exactly the same as SB.
Agree that this channel still is better for hockey fans, but this channels get a lot of praise for this edit and writing style that's straight from SB Nation
The level of story telling on this channel is immaculate. Just enough backstory to understand the significance of the events without bogging the audience down in detail. Bravo
If you like it, SB nation's hockey content is basically formatted the exact same way. Even this guy's delivery is the exact same.
Still good channels, but if the channel branding wasn't there i don't think i could tell you which was which.
You know it’s good story telling when it gives you chills
As a Finnish hockey fan myself, that was truly one of the bounces.
Same
it was a bounce of all time...
That shot just didn't "Finnish". 😂
Vaikka kanukit nyt veiki tän mestaruuden sillon, niin kyl tätä hyväl muistelee ja tulee kylmätväreetki oikei😄
"If you dont like it then sue me, Suomi"
-McTavish, probably.
If I recall, Mctavish was 1 point off of either tying or setting a record in points, but instead of making offensive history in the overtime with being a part of the golden goal, he made defensive history in overtime the most improbable save I've seen in the world juniors.
lol if you watched the 8,3 minutes you could hear them say he was the points leader, but i guess you like Tradau and Matt Pettgrave.
@@sveannnnnnn7578 points leader of the tournament =/= record holder for points in the tournament lol.
McTavish was 1 away from tying a tournament record for the Canadian team which was 18 (Dale McCourt in 77, Brayden Schenn in 2011). Bedard broke that Canadian record with 23 points in 2023, the following year. And Peter Forsberg (sweden) holds the tournament record with 31 points in 1993 (with 24 assists!).
@@sveannnnnnn7578 worst thing is you re too stupid to read the word ''record''.
and right after being tripped with no call, which set up this miracle anyways. Refs were gonna give it to Finland
Seriously, your rise during 2023 has been phenomenal. Living in Australia, your explanation of the finer points of the game speaks volumes. Good luck in 2024 and hope your rise continues.
Fan from down under! Nice to see!
Also an Aussie fan! This channel has been huge for improving my in-depth understanding of ice hockey for sure, love to see someone else in the same boat
Sry bro but my Country took ur "rising" Canada
Also an aussie fan and player, love this channel
I agree. 2024 has since your stock rise even more with so many great videos.
This sequence of events is so important to me because me and my late grandma who passed in December of 2022 watched this whole tournament together and we went crazy when McTavish did that. I will truly never forget it.
...wasn't this the summer juniors? pretty sure it was
It was summer of 22 and his grandmother died in December of 22 which comes after the summer of 22
Glad she got to see this. Would have been nice if she had watched Canada repeat in 2022/23. It's wonderful that you got you got to injury these magical moments together.
And as a Finn... my god that hurt
Seeing it again still hurts 😅
@@Aldriel watching it i just couldnt believe how it wouldve felt to be a Finn in that game, atleast you can write it off and say you were extraordinarily unlucky
I felt sorry for the finns for a little while after the game.
I remember the Finnish bench head their hands up thought he scored
honestly one of the best hockey analysis channels on the platform; love the unique coverage you give!!
Simply the greatest hockey play I have ever seen.
And I saw ‘72.
How that puck didn’t go in the net I will never know.
What keeps stories alive is the way we tell them. You did an amazing job on this one. Loved every second!
If someone told me that SB Nation put out a new episode of Rewinder and played this, I wouldn't have doubted it for a second. Excellent production on an excellent video.
This was an amazing video man, this is one of the best channels out there for hockey, this made me remember how stacked that team was and how stressful that game was man, wish the bounce coulda went our way again this year but…
I absolutely love your breakdowns. The breakdowns, the way you show each event in the play, build suspense and then show the full sequence. You keep me coming back. Thank you!
Not trying to hate on this dude, but SB nation did this exact style first. If you're a fan of this content you'd love theirs too. Admittedly they sadly don't cover hockey nearly as much as I'd like, but it's clear that their videos are the inspiration. Edit and delivery is literally the exact same. Obviously SB Nation didn't invent mini sport docs, and this guys coverage is still unique, but the writing and editing is suuuper similar
that save is the greatest save in world junior history. That play i will never forget watching
Lowkey the best world juniors moment but no one remembers bc it was in august
Anyone here in 2024 rewatching this amazing game again?
I was in the building for this game. The moment was absolutely electric, I can still clearly remember Mctavish stopping that puck on the line, despite barely remembering the goal that won Canada the game.
Thanks so much for bringing those memories back. Skilled luck was what he demonstrated here. More often than not this wouldn't have worked for him, but it would work more often for him than most other people.
I couldn't believe it when this happened. Truly one of the most insane moments in sports history.
Love the content keep it up and undoubtedly the best hockey breakdown series
great little video! as a hockey newbie i appreciate the concise rundown of an important game/moment
Love the history breakdown vids. They seem high effort but their worth it. Keep ‘em comin
This format with such high quality will blow you up to the moon bro amazing video keep improving never stop sprinting
I'm just discovering this channel now, and I'm loving the content! How did I NOT see this channel sooner?? How have I not known about before?? Great videos.
Such a historic moment!
This was a great video, very well done!
That gave me goosebumps lol this channel is so good thank you 🙏🏻
You’ve got the best TH-cam channel. Just wanted to thank you for these incredible videos can’t wait for the next upload
This way this man can tell storys, edit clips, is insane to me. Insanely underrated
Great storytelling! Love this channel!
That game will always be one of the best gold medals games ever and that save will always be remembered
This content is amazing. The 8-10 min length is perfect for watching while eating a meal and not getting sucked into the TH-cam vortex.
Best hockey channel and it isnt even close. Keep up the amazing work happy new year
The final goal was amazing on its own. He got his own rebound and put it in.
You actually talk about the game like you've played before, love it.
man i can’t get over how could your content is please never stop posting
Yes... "Good memories". So familiar for us Finns. "Almost but not enough"
Great editing and love your commentary on the team tactics
And Now Canada Just Lost to Czechia in the Quarter Finals on an Unlucky Bounce off a Defensemen smh
exactly
good bc now other teams can win the gold medal other than Canada
@@Nikoyes U.S. won, but that isn't anything new either. In the last 12 years, they have won it four times. Canada five times and Finland three times.
man, you and Eck are doing such great work.
Big fan of the content, awesome work!
these things get overlooked so hard in hockey great vid
Just gotta say, with a team as hot as Canada’s was at the time it’s pretty crazy that Finland was able to almost beat them. Goes to show our fighter mindset and true hockey skill
Dude your videos are incredible. It’s like a Jon bois video. Keep it up.
Incredible job, thanks for this videos
I really enjoyed this tournament in august. Honestly wish they would have stayed with that schedule. It felt nice to get back into hockey over the summer . Plus these kids wouldn't have to miss any regular games for club teams
I'm still recovering from this 10 minutes later.
I was watching this game on my phone sitting at a restaurant bar and when McTavish made that stick save I jumped out of the barstool and yelled! Needless to say the next couple minutes were unforgettable. Easily the biggest gave-saving play I've ever seen at any level of hockey. Ridiculous. And to think it's two superstars like McTavish and Bedard in front.
Bro love these vids 🎉🎉🎉🎉
This was my first world juniors game, cant believe it didnt sell out right away everyone jumped up in the lower bowl so i barely got a glimse of mactavishs save but my mind was blown
I was at this game!
When i saw McTavish get that bounce, I was out of my mind. I thought it was magic!
The best hockey channel on TH-cam.
Love your videos so much
I was at this game and was seated along the goal line. I can tell you one thing, that when McTavish stopped that puck from going in absolutely no one realized what just happened. Being a goaltender myself I saw what happened and absolutely lost it and before people realized the whole sequence rolled out.. everyone in that arena was absolutely dumbfounded how he basically picked that puck mid air and basically saved the tourney in an absolute split second decision.. it was unreal epic. I wasn't old enough to witness the Oilers run in the late 80s into the 90s. But I'd suspect it felt like that moment during and after the game!! Absolutely unreal😮
Good video. Should make one about the TSN camera saving Canada vs Russia in 2020
Great video. Looking forward to more.
The scenic route around the net...something that stands out as a big difference between the up and coming star versus a young Sidney Crosby as a rookie. Keep those legs moving and utilize the edge work that one must work on day in and day out.
I don't get this comment. Are you saying he was right to take the scenic route?
Great video!
The initial knock down is 100% pure skill. Hand eye coordination. The bounces and the swipes were obviously a bit of desperation and that part did involve more luck for sure.
There's a great youtube video that talks about "luck" determining outcomes in pro sports and of the major sports Hockey is the "luckiest" sport. I think this has become even more true, especially in the NHL, where you have so much parity between teams and the average talent level of players and teams is very high. Modern NHL hockey goals are mostly a result of a lot of pinball type plays. Even "tip in" goals, which have become so prominent, are mostly luck. The tips themselves are total skill, but where the puck goes after that is fairly random and you're hoping it goes where a defender or goalie isn't.
The result of all this is, and this is going to make hockey fans angry, but it's true, is that the best team doesn't always win. Florida for example, was not a better team than the Bruins last year even though they beat them. A seven game series is not enough of a sample size like it can be in other sports. And here it is...The Stanley Cup, is more of a "lucky" trophy than the President's Cup. Sorry...I know none of you want to hear that, but it's true. In many ways winning the Pres trophy is much more impressive than the cup.
Sport with the least amount of luck determining outcomes? Basketball.
I was watching a video on how players have "figured out" Basketball. It's become so easy for elite players to score a 3 pointer that defense is an uphill battle. And since defending a layup has rules around how long you can stand there for, the whole game becomes "who can get more 3 pointers". That's part of the reason basketball games are so close, too. The skill ceiling seems to be met by most of the players.
@@Malohdek Well, I think it's more of the fact that the math says 3 pointers are how you win. Or basically inside or outside shots where probability is the highest and reward is the greatest respectively. The mid range jumper is basically dead.
This in turn has led to a focus on guys with the ability to hit the three and so that's how the game has evolved. If you want to make it to the NBA today, especially in the back court, you must have long range ability.
Still though, you gotta play D to win a title. Look at the Raptors title. It was D all the way that stifled GS. Milwaukee's title was from strong D play as well.
3 point % made, took a huge jump from the 80's to the 90's. It's true it's held relatively steady since 2000 but I wouldn't be surprised if it slowly starts creeping up as guys specialize more and focus on the shot. Steph is a 42% career shooter so as more guys come in who idolized him growing up, I bet it starts to increase.
As an "old school" NBA fan, I don't whine about this era like many do. I think the Bball played today is very exciting and there is still great D and great rebounding that turn games. It's just a different type of D now.
I agree with a lot of what you say, but not quite with the tip-ins. For sure there is luck involved, but the player can definitely manipulate the direction of the tip - high, low, left, right, center. You can also alter the speed of the puck. A static tip usually scrubs of less speed than batting it, for example.
@@janbo8331 That's what I said when I said "The tips themselves are total skill". Of course they can do those things. It still doesn't mean they know the goalie or a defender isn't going to be there. They're rarely if ever tipping "for an opening" like the would be when they shoot. Vast majority of tips are with their backs to the goalie/defender/net. Their basically tipping for the chaos that occurs. The tips are skill, the results are, in almost all cases, luck. Luck if the goalie stops it (if he's screened), if a defender has it hit him, or if they score.
The case of the best team not always winning goes for every sport there is. And the panthers were the better team in that series.
i got shiver in the last part of the vid
Its the biggest save ever made in a hockey game. Nothing else is even close.
Awesome Video!!
I was in the building, everyone thought it was in. Crazy night
This is a “where we’re you” moment.
I was there, seeing it all. I can never forget the sheer amount of adrenaline that save brought me.
Trīs gane was insane! My mind was blown after that save. I knew it’s over for Fins when it happened!
Great vid. Got chills on that GWG. Not gonna lie.
😮 Excellent recap.
I was there and have never experienced such chaos during a live game since.
Was in the summertime too I remember. 3v3 should be abolished after this one this is the GREATEST OUTCOME
this ot was definitely my fav hockey moment
That save was amazing
Was at that game, right as our player hit the puck away from the open net EVERYONES and I mean EVERYONES heart skipped a beat. We all thought it was over, then the puck made it's way down the ice. The goal exploded the arena essentially. Glad I was there. Still felt bad looking at the Fins, I know exactly how they felt, as I played a kinda high level in hockey nothing impressive though. Lost in the final at a big tournament known as Silver Stick.
Was at this game craziest shit I’ve ever seen
The Hockey Gods interfered
Lol facts
And now they got eliminated by a lucky bounce 😂
yeah just for good bc other countries want to win the gold medal too bc it gets boring when Canada always wins the gold medal not this year
Great video
Stunning video
I don’t know why I wanted to re-live this
Video 2 of asking for a breakdown of the summit series 72
this team was just different man
Please do an episode on Canada's 2021 Men's World Championship team! They started 0-3, needed a TON of things to fall their way just to get into the quarterfinals, ultimately only made the QFs because Germany-Latvia didn't go to OT...
... and in the medal round, knocked off Russia (QFs), the U.S. (SFs) and Finland (final) on the way to an unforgettable gold medal.
(After having previously lost to USA/FIN in the preliminary round, too!)
He could do a whole round up of the 3 years in row where Canada and Finland played in the mens finals.
this was on my birthday and i could have not gotten a better gift
I love this but as a hockey player that is trying to make AAA I would love to have even more in depth hockey structure mini plays and skill explanation!
it makes u wonder how this play would have layed out in 1977,,,,when cameras and replayes werent a thing
You’ll be getting hired by the NHL network this year.
i fuckin love the SB nation vibe you do it better honestly, i hope they hire you cuz they need a hockey guy so bad😂
The stop was no luck, the bounces for sure were pure luck. I remember this like it was yesterday!
finnish goal tender was epic in this game!!!...guy non stop stopped shot after shot
As a ticket holder I'm still infuriated by the summer fuck up of this tournament
Great timing for this video with almost everyone being sore losers about Czechia besting Canada. Bounces happen. It’s part of the game. Luck or not, it doesn’t matter after the clock runs out.
*SB Nation's copyright lawyers have joined the chat.
How have I not seen this before!
I’m fired up
This channel is an absolute beauty
One word... CLUTCH!
im pretty sure finland could have won if that guy didn’t celebrate to early but this was a crazy game
Such a cool video
what a game what a game so good its history not just normal history it hockey history
That’s crazy bro.
Who shot it?
