This was the most dominate performance I've ever since in any hockey game. Very controlled and professional by the whole Canadian team, it doesn't get any better than this.

2014 team Canada was one of the greatest teams ever put together, the defensive dominance was remarkable, usually Canadian teams are known for high scoring but they were low scoring and just smothering defensive hockey, it was masterclass.

Never seen a Canadian national team let their determination to win be so tempered by disciplin and accuracy.

[@XxKcookiez29]

Play List Top Notch prospects? Lmao, so? In general, Canada destroys Usa.

[@bp9392]

Play List Google searching names. Nice. Clearly you don't know anything about hockey. Cherry picking American names doesn't discount the plethora of Canadian names. You randomly associate many players as top 5 prospects, which they are not. Eichel and Hanifan, along with along with Matthews are top 5 prospects. The first 2 are come after Connor McDavid, but Hanifin might fall out of the top 5. He had a bad World Juniors, and he is 2nd or 3rd best among freshman defencemen, behind Jordan Gross and at the same level as, or behind Brandon Montour. Marner and Crouse can likely surpass him as #3 and/or #4, with Strome and Barzal right there for #5 or #6 (these 2 not ahead of Hanifin though. Matthews is the only surefire top pick in 2016. However, it is way too early to even consider anyone else. If you want to throw out names, Clague, Chychrun, Fabbro, Steel, Green, Howden and Benson can all slide into the top 5 for Canada, but again it is way too early to tell; 1 and a half years away.

[@donutsubscribe3751]

Google searching? There's something called prospect forums, "and mock drafts".... 3/4 of the scouts voted Hanifan as the number three best prospect in the draft..Most of these kids have broken records, and are receiving Crosby-like attention. Wise for example even though he's only 14 he has broken the QC Int PW AA Elite scoring record, and is the most hyped player in the 2000s... Dhooghe? he has already committed to Ohio State Univ, and is being called the next patrick kane, putting up patrick kane type numbers at a similar age...Max Jones was the leading scorer at the u17 champions... Wahlstorm is the youngest player to make NCAA hockey commitment (scholarship)..www.draftsite.com/nhl/mock-draft/2016/ ..... hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/index.php .... www.eliteprospects.com/draftcenter.php?year=2017 .... try reading for once

[@bp9392]

Play List Please continue using the unqualified opinions of those on forums and conducting mock drafts before there is even a draft order. I said Hanifin _might_ fall out of the top 5, not that he wasn't the 3rd best player. He has hurt his stock lately, which _could_ push him out of the top 5. Too significant of drop? Remember Seth Jones dropping 3? Hanifin however is still a top 5 (#3-5) prospect, with Crouse and Marner, who have clearly established themselves in the top 5. Also, please link _the scouts._ Oh really? Crosby like attention? I hear people in the streets clamouring about Wise, Jones, Kirwan, Day, Chychrun (who's Canadian), Wahlstrom, Anderson, Dhooghe, Gildon and Keller. Oh yeah, no one is. Crosby like attention is when Wayne Gretzky says you are the best player he's seen since Mario Lemieux. Crosby like attention is when you are heiled as "The Next One." The men who were: Lindros, Crosby, Kessel, Tavares, McDavid and Eichel. None of the above, Wise to Keller, receive any sort of attention whatsoever. That is you making a comment to hype those players in an attempt to convince me to thinking you are right. Jake Wise generated absolutely no attention in the time period of 2000 to 2009. I put 100% faith in that statement. You're high off something. You sound like a machine spitting out the internet. Anyways, Barzal broke the point scoring record at 12 or 13 years of age. It is a league that has yet to provide any NHL talent in its history. Just because he puts up Patrick Kane numbers doesn't automatically mean he's Patrick Kane. In fact, he isn't even close to Crosby or Kane. Dhooghe may strike as a Grimaldi, but as a mid to late round pick, 5-6 year development project, and then either a top 6 star, or a bust, but the top 6 remark is being generous. His height is an issue as well. Looking at the 30 shortest players in the league, there is a 6/30 chance he makes it as a regular, and 1/30 chance he truly plays at a level of Crosby, or Kane. This is with adjusted growth between the next 3 and 5 years. If you want a Patrick Kane, look for Jeremy Bracco; late-1st, early 2nd round pick. We're still a year and a half away from the 2016 draft. Max Jones today may very well be a top 5. But that could all change in a year. There are surefire #1's, but not top 5's. Austin Matthews is the former, no one is the latter for sure. Just look at for example, the 2000 draft until 2014. 2000 had Dipietro, Heatley and Gaborik, 2006 had E.Johnson, J.Staal and Toews. Any one of them could have been drafted first overall. None of them could have been predicted 1.5 years before. 1.5 before, you could with Ovechkin and Malkin in '04, Crosby in '05, Stamkos in '08, Tavares in '09, and McDavid and Eichel in '15. No more than that, do to the sheer difficulty and constant changes. Even with surefires, you have Jones going from #2 at the start, to #1 late in the season, to #2 heading in, to #4 leaving the draft. Is Wahlstrom playing as a Swedish or American international? Looks good from numbers, even if he's 383rd in scoring, he is very young. It's premature to judge him at the moment. He needs two more years before we can begin. I'd slot him as an early, early, early prospect for 2018 when he's eligible.

[@kevp9601]

I Agree with the 875 Likes, Ice hockey: Ice hockey is a contact team sport played on ice, usually in a rink, in which two teams of skaters use their sticks to shoot a vulcanized rubber puck into their opponent's net to score points. Ice hockey teams usually consist of four lines of three forwards, three forwards, three pairs of defencemen, and two goaltenders. Normally, each team has five players who skate up and down the ice trying to take the puck and score a goal against the opposing team. and I also heard that on Wikipedia the Free Encyclopedia that it states that Team members: 6 per side (including goaltender). ;-)

[@IndeeraSamReddy]

Go Canada 🇨🇦 Go love you guys

[@ChunLiKasumi]

For those who don't understand why Canada won, let me explain: There were 2 strategies that Canada was using, the cycle game and the rapid shift switching. The cycle game is based on the principle that the puck will always move faster than the players, therefore, as long as you keep the puck cycling around the opponent's goal, the defense has more ground to cover and have to constantly try to get themselves between the goalie and the puck. But cycle game requires team work, meaning players cannot be selfish, meaning there is no "I" in team. The second strategy is rapid shift switching. By changing shifts roughly every 2 minutes, you give players on the bench roughly 6 to 8 minutes to rest, thus when they go out for their next shift, they will be fresh again and can go 100% for 2 minutes again. Thus in the 3rd period, the puck was rarely in the Canadian zone. This was actually used against the Canada vs US game with similar results, near the end of second period and for most of the third period, the US players were exhausted.

[@Terminator6364]

ChunLiKasumi the biggest reason they won, was that Canada has the best players. Compare the lineups and you will find out not even 3 players in sweden are good enough to play with Canda.

[@howtohockeytraining]

+ChunLiKasumi pro's change about every 45 seconds, rapid shift changes would be every 30

[@jonnyswab12]

+How To Hockey - Coach Jeremy You are correct! Babcock stated his plan to the Canadian media for rapid shift changes that consist of 30-40 seconds. A 2 minute shift on Olympic ice would be ridiculous and very draining on the individuals stamina.

Not really, those WHC tournaments were not best on best competition as the NHL playoffs were being played, but during the Olympics of 2010 and 2014 the NHL was shut down to allow all teams to send their best players.

Team Canada 2014, best hockey team ever

[@tonygambino5905]

hahahha. Not ever. But a great team. The Soviet Union had the best teams ever.

[@tonygambino5905]

***** Completely untrue. The best Soviet team was their 1981 team, which smoked Canada in the Canada Cup by a score of 8-1. I stand by this as the greatest team of all time. Any team that beats Canada's best, including Wayne Gretzky, Bossy, Lafleur, etc. by a score like that ON CANADIAN ice with a smaller rink and NHL refs...That NHL All Star Team had 20 future hall of famers, the most EVER, in any sport, in history, on one team. And the Soviets didn't just beat them, they embarrassed them. Just 2 years earlier they buried the NHL All Stars 6-0. Those are blowouts. Canada won in 1976 but the Soviets only brought 7 of their top players that year. Canada won in 1984 but Tretiak had retired by then. 1987 was a great win for Canada. Keep in mind all of those games were played on Canadian ice with NHL refs. Very different game. Overall if you include Superseries, Canada Cups and Challenge Cups and any game of Soviets vs NHLers the USSR won 59% of the games. I studied every single series and every single game played between the 2 because my 2nd cousin was Vladimir Myshkin, the goalie who shut out the NHL All Stars 6-0 in 1979.

[@tonygambino5905]

You can try empty boasting if you will, but that' s not at all what history shows. You want medal charts? Since the Soviets came into hockey in the 1950's, they have 7 golds and 1 for the Unified Team. Canada has 3 golds in that same period. And tell yourself whatever you have to with the NHL All Stars, that's lame and you know it. There was one player who was not Canadian on that team, Borje Salming. It had the largest number of Hall of Famers EVER on a team, and they were all Canadian. So if that's not a representation of Canada I don't know what is. Because the jersey said NHL instead of Canada? Sure buddy. The Soviets were better. And if you won't take my word for it, take Wayne Gretzky's. He himself said it in his autobiography, that the Soviets had better hockey during the 1970's and 1980's. Also not sure why you say the Soviets only one ONE best on best tournament. They won the 1974 games against the WHA all stars. Of course you will say that wasn't best on best, but then I have to say that the 1976 Soviet team was not their best since they did not even bring their top 2 lines. Tretiak sat out the '84 tournament so that can't be counted as their best either. You see, you can always find SOMEONE who wasn't on the team. The World Championships from 1977 on included NHLers. Esposito, Gretzky, Messier, Coffey, all those guys played on those teams, and the Soviets always beat them. Its not even close. Since 1950 when the Soviets started playing hockey they have won more World Titles, more Olympic Golds, and its not even close. No one outside Canada believes Canada was better than Soviet hockey so you just sound ridiculous and like the typical arrogant Canadian when you start saying that.

[@tonygambino5905]

***** Without canada's best athletes? Good one. The US can say that though for sure. Not even its second tier athletes play hockey. Its basically the kids who aren't big enough, strong enough, fast enough, resilient enough, or tough enough who play hockey. Otherwise they play American football, play basketball, or even soccer over hockey.

[@ldhorricks]

My god the British play by play is just horrendous...for all the critics of this Canadian team, this final and how they played overall...this and the 2015 World Championships may have been the most dominant Canadian teams in Canadian international history.

[@levvis8971]

[@purwantiallan5089]

[@carmanahgauthier5840]

We actually got to watch this game in class and every other class watched it to so when Canada won are whole school just started screaming

[@Love-ic4lh]

Oh yah in my school we watched the USA versus Canada and we won so our school was screaming, and everyone started to dance around and that caused me being trampled over when I sat down again to talk about the match with my friends

[@paspep]

best defense ever, notice how Sweeden cant get close enought to have good shots on Carrey Price. even the forwards play as defenseman.

[@jimmypye4460]

Let me sound like a Swede: The score could easily have been 10-0 if not for the bad refereeing and bad bounces that Canada experienced during this game. Sweden is lucky to have not been embarrassed far worse than they were.

[@teamaf9740]

wats the point of watching if i already know the result from the title

[@dirtmerchant16]

It looks like hockey. But I swear I hear... soccer?

[@Badlut]

Why do you put the final score in the title?

[@Crinklelando]

Canada is always beast at hockey. Or maybe I'm just saying that because I live in Canada. :D

[@dodus77able]
