I noticed that too, but it's because the Canadians actually are smaller upfront. The Czechs only have three forwards that are 6'0'' or smaller. Canada has seven forwards that are 6'0'' or smaller.
It's the opposite story on D though

Always surprised when I hear "Apache" being played in a stadium - I mean the tune is a classic banger, but lyrics are a bit problematic for 2023

Why? the logistics is literally all they're responsible for, if you can't properly accommodate for the timing of the tournament and the frequency of the games, you've failed as a host

Russia was initially supposed to host this year. Halifax and Moncton stepped up last minute to host

Morons that stand up and look at the camera should be shot on sight.

Bedard is a magician. Better than McDavid at that age.

He essentially is semi-retired. He doesnt do regular stuff, but apparently he likes working the WJHC so its in his contract that this is essentially all he does.

Bedard should have at least two assists off of awesome passes but they guys he passed to just couldn't convert.

Honestly? It seems to me that he just simply has more tools in the box than "Me go fast."

I feel like there hasn't been enough discussion on the hilarity of the name 'Stankoven'.

Bedard is a good skater and better passer. Bedard’s only flaw is his size but he seems pretty gritty for all that.

Czechs are solid but it's a slog for them with the lack of offensive flash they seem capable of.
