Canada vs. Russia 2009 World Juniors Semi-Final (HD)

Full highlights of the Canada vs. Russia semi-final game at the 2009 World Junior Hockey Championship in Ottawa, including Eberle's game-tying goal and the shootout.

[@ravballer]

pierre mcguire just butchered the call

[@ShadyOaksProductions]

Haha… typical McGuire tho… Can you believe it? “I CAN…. Blah blah blah ice the puck… the crowd was waiting on Tavares magical play…. Tavares…. MAGICAL PLAY” 😂😂 man listening to Pierre is always so cringe and this made me laugh. Good memories Good job Eberle

[@jimgray3346]

"Whoop!"

[@seph_f]

It's so weird how Pierre McGuire goes on and on about Tavares after the Eberle goal when Ellis and Eberle made the really impressive plays on that shift.

[@matthewjones3553]

Tavares literally made the play to Eberle to save us

[@2011Oly]

Matthew Jones without Ellis, the game is over

[@jasonrocca]

Tavares goes into three Russians and comes up with the puck, is able to throw it on net. yeah without Ellis the game is done. Without Eberle pretty much just not fucking up the game is done. But the most skill on that play was Tavares.

[@EdmundGerber]

And Hodgeson's work down low was amazing. He, Ellis and Eberle made this goal.

[@BlastinHash709]

Pierre was lickin Tavares’s boots all tourney

[@2011Oly]

Everyone says that Pierre ruined the moment, but I'm pretty sure everyone cheering for Canada in this thread was going ape shit crazy when he scored and didn't hear a word that Pierre said.

[@BFMVrocks34]

Good point. What we need to be saying is he ruined reliving the moment 😂

[@barrystewart5946]

Thank God. Now ruined on playback.

[@doyleismylastname]

Man nobody ever mentions the fact that Ryan Ellis whos about 5’7”.... launched off his feet into the air, with his arm, into the boards, to keep that puck in the offensive zone and made that ENTIRE play possible for Eberle to score what might possibly be the most clutch goal in not only Canadian World Junior’s Hockey.. but IIHF World Junior’s Hockey history ever!!! Unbelievable moment. I was 15 at the time, standing an inch away from my TV the last minute of that game, and went absolutely bananas when Eberle scored that goal!!!

[@jamess5179]

believe me he famous in Ottawa from that play at blue line a national hero!

[@armin88213]

100% agree

[@CtotheFoo]

Tavares, Benn, Kane, Pietriangelo, Eberle. Man this team was stacked.

[@MrCrockaG]

the defense too... Subban and Ellis were sooo goof

[@ryanlol4]

They lost in ot

[@amandahugandkissss]

The 2005 team was stacked....this team was good but never dominated throughout the tournament

[@BoL7z]

Subban, Myers, Ellis, Hodgson, Pickard

[@asap_anus8296]

Don’t forget Dustin tokarski!!!!

[@xUnleadedx]

If there's one person I dont miss commentating, it's Pierre McGuire...glad he's gone somewhere else.

[@mfChunky]

The problem is that we haven't won without Pierre commentating...

Gotta love Pierre Mcguire ruining the moment. "I CAN!, CUZ KULITOV ICED THE PUCK...BLAH BLAH BLAH." Yea ok, you're a hockey analyst but let us enjoy the moment. Everybody in the entire nation is jumping up and down in joy and you're trying to constructively break down the situation during all the commotion.

@@2011Oly Pierre McGuire might have been bad here Ray Ferraro is worse. So what are your thoughts Ray after Finland just beat Canada 2-1 in the quarter finals? "Well I don't think Canada could've played any better" Ray Ferraro 2019

[@bradmorris5797]

@@tylerwatson3506 There aren't too many color commentators left who do a good job of it. I have never liked Pierre's style, but he's far from alone in the category of having too much to say. Yeah, Ray Ferraro is in that camp. Unfortunately, it makes me want to just mute my TV. I really do think it boils down to simply talking too much. Both Ferraro and McGuire have excellent hockey knowledge. But when you're afraid of radio silence, you'll say _anything_ just to keep that noise flowing. Some of the pseudo-intellectual, self-important nonsense that comes out of these guys mouths is nothing short of eye-rolling. So not to pile on to a point that has already been well-made by others, but there really does seem to be an extra dose of self-awareness that needs to be doled out to these in-game hockey talking heads. there are some electric moments during a hockey game where you're actually *hurting* the atmosphere by opening your mouth. To me, Harry Neale is the prime example of a good color commentator. He knew when to talk and what to say, and he was not afraid of that sacred moment when the best thing to do is to shut up, listen, and starting thing about the next _good_ thing to say. It feels like the occupation is perhaps just too competitive and self-promoting to have that sort of nuance these days.

@@ianplourde3008 I've always felt that way about McGwire. I don't like his style at all. He talks WAY to much, says the wrong things in unrelatable ways. "Went roof-daddy"? Who says that? He's like the Jim Acosta of hockey commentating.

[@ssboooy4153]

Pierre just messes everything up

[@woodstocknun]

the most iconic Canadian world junior goal ever, and Pierre ruins it by giving a analytic summary of why the goal happened during the celebrations..

[@GTSNarwhal]

I still remember when Eberle scored with 5 seconds left. It took me like 10 seconds to realize what happened lol. Eberle is still one of my favorite players to this day.

[@matthewjones3553]

Agreed bud. I love Jordan Eberle so much. It would be epic if the leafs could somehow get him too

[@ridebmx24seven]

Yeah Tavares' magical play... sure. Ellis made the pinch of the tourney, and Eb's with the skilled hands. I love this shit.

Alexander Shaw haha yea I was just thinking the same, so many long walk in wristers and then that one where he’s not even close to hugging the post when the play is directly beside him.. brutal.

[@user-vp5xf6fm5p]

Same, so painful to watch

[@LouSasshole]

Alot of people forget too that in that one shootout where Toews was scoring all the goals, Price was brutal in that shootout too, let in so many goals

[@jordanhanson7932]

this was the best game in world junior hockey history, hands down

[@mikemaclean6704]

Toews scoring 3 times in the same shootout plenty other been so many great ones this is top 5 can't really say it's the greatest

ok so if Canada has to be in it, then how bout the quarter final between Finland and canada in 2016 juniors? it ended 6-5 with Laine scoring the GWG

I CAN!...ruined it

[@Haggart9]

I was there that night and it was absolutely insane from start to finish but from Eberle's tying goal to the shootout, not one person in the building sat down. It was so loud, we couldn't even hear the music for the anthem after the game so we were almost a full verse ahead. Absolute madness.

[@Conquerer13]

It's Gord Miller, not Chris Cuthbert.

[@Glensrep]

This is probably one of the best hockey games in Canada history. I remember watching t with my family. I thought it was all over but of course Canada would find a way :P
