Canada's level of play was below the new world standards. Czechia has improved significantly as many other countries have. Canada's coaching is heavily reliant on old NHL standards, hard hits and taking senseless penalties does not win games.

Good game Czechia & Canada! Not the strongest goaltending performance - especially on the first two, nice comeback though!

This tournament is always a wild card - and although, as a Canadian, I'm hoping for gold, it's great to see awesome hockey played by the young gents, with no real guarantees! Honestly, it's a humbling experience to not win all the time...good luck to all the final teams!

[@rickmayer9614]

Finally witnessed the explosion play by Canada’s forwards. As in terms of, team play, shots, heart, some physical play. Defence, I felt played there best game of the holiday event. I would of promoted Bonk to the first pair of defenders. He had a great game. That deflection has nothing on him or his play. Same with Geekie, I would of had him playing with Canada’s #17. See how the calibration of other countries has come. Not 10-1 games anymore. Germany’s up-set the other day. Fantastic hockey. Had me on my toes!

Canada didn't take this tournament seriously until it was too late. Well played to the Czechs.

[@harryvandenbroek206]

60 minutes of hockey is a key ingredient to success. This would include efforts from all players including the goalie.

Very classy Canadian fans on here. Now I can see why the Czechs took USA to a shootout.

[@tobiasahlsen4800]

For the first time since 2019, Canada crash out of the quarterfinals. Certainly disappointing for Canada. Will the Czech manage manage to win another medal this year? It is something which only the future can tell us.

[@VoIcanoman]

As a Canadian, all I have to say is...good job Czechia, you guys deserve this. I hope you go all the way (for the first time in more than 2 decades). It's been pretty boring seeing the same 4 (technically 5, but warmongering Russians are gone now) teams dominating the medals of this tournament, especially since the quality of hockey development outside of those nations has improved dramatically. So it's good to see outcomes like this, as it represents a growth in the sport. Sweden I think are still the favourites, and if they beat the Swiss (and it looks likely that they will), they will face Czechia in the semifinals. But I like Czechia's chances there. Sweden are a great hockey nation, but they've only won this tournament once since 1996 (the year it adopted a round-robin opening round, and single-elimination playoffs), and they have not performed that well on home ice either, finishing 5th in 2000, 4th in 2007 and 2nd in 2014. Also, Czechia ended their gold medal ambitions last year, in a 2-1 OT decision. Anyway, whatever happens, I know it'll be an extremely hard-fought game. Good luck!

[@Masaryk28.10.]

Yea we won silver last year if i remember correctly

[@martina4576]

Why the foul in the last second?:( When you don't know how to lose... Everybody must lose sometimes. Anyway Canada has many great fans who know that the last year's final could have gone either way, and the same goes for this match obviously. Nerve-wracking. I did not follow junior championships until the previous one, and now I understand why they are so popular in America. Great matches. Thanks for the many nice comments.

[@terrywright9765]

Tough way to lose. Gratz and good luck in the semis. We were a little young this year. Next year we will be stacked.

[@ruslansinitsyn1498]

Чехия вперёд!!!

[@zachvathurikan3483]

As a Czech, I was really sceptical about Hrabal since our loss with Slovakia, but the USA game and now Canada game made me believe that he has a really bright future maybe even in the senior team.

[@j7572]

You guys got your revenge for last year. Hope to see you make it to the finals!

[@nathannovak4827]

Can’t wait for a 2 min highlight for the rest of the games

[@vladimirstrnad503]

I saw so many Canadians complain about not having Bedard, but least year Canada won over Slovakia in OT, while Slovakia didnt have Slafkovsky, the number one pick in the draft, and nobody said anything about that lol

[@tom..193]

I'm a real Canadian, and most "canadians" in modern times aren't really canadian. Just a bunch of woke complainers; they're not that sharpest tools in the shed

[@Silica_Packer]

CZECH DESERVED THE WIN!

[@justinwillness3162]

one of the worst team canada's i've seen and the roster was absolutely shocking too. not good enough for canada

[@stivvits1067]

Glad to see Bonk contributing to the Czechia win

[@joelface]

After the Canadian's shut out loss against Sweden, I think it was clear it would take a Miracle for Canada to win Gold in this tournament. But... I did think they'd find a way in this game. Too bad. Looking for the positives, it's an exciting moment for Czechia and their fans.
