Proud of the German team. Can’t remember a German team at the world juniors ever playing on eye level with Canada. Well done and congrats to Canada for the win.
@@alexcooper3007 To give you a sense of dimension: In Germany there are about 21.000 registered ice hockey players. Playing in an club (i.e., being a registered player) is pretty much the only way to play ice hockey in Germany. There are pretty much no public rinks that allow to play hockey (only ice skating) and lakes freeze maybe once per decade for a week or two. Compare that to Canada with its over 510.000 registered ice hockey player and a population in which pretty much everybody has access to a rink that allows to play hockey. Losing to Canada in the third period after a questionable game winning goal (high sticking) is very respectable for that German team. We have beaten Canada a the Olympics before but at the World Juniors Canada brings their very best players (of that age group).
@@northernsnow6982 In case there is any doubt based on my previous comment: For me it is absolutely clear, that Canada deserved to win and Canada was the better team. The overall shots on goals of 20-35 reflects that. I still find it very remarkable for a German team to be tied well into the third period against Canada. And in that third period Germany even outshot Canada 12-10. So, a win for Germany would have been possible. I really don't like to complain about the refs because in general I think they did a good job and their job is tough. It just makes me even prouder of that team to think that the game winner should not have counted. Probably, Canada would have won it anyways, because they are simply the better team. But as the game against Czechia showed, one (un)lucky deflection can make the difference, despite Canada outshooting Czechia 23-32. I am so proud of the German team because of the huge respect I have for Canada. Just look at the WJC 2023, when we lost 11-2. We were not competing in that game. This year we were competing. Winning against Finnland is also huge for us. Just proud of that team and hoping that they can take away the win against Norway tomorrow.
Celebrini is so damn good. Honestly, one of the most complete and cerebral young players i have ever seen. That being said this D core is pretty weak, too immobile and slow.
Your Celebrini... You've got 2 goals already... Your a leading candidate for accolades, post tourney... mvp, best forward, tourney all star team, etcetera... AT 17, which IS a Big Deal, historically, in this tourney... You're in a good position to shoot at an open net for goal number 3... Instead you try to make a low percentage pass to a team mate, whose not even in a better position to score... result was nothing gets added to your tourney leading pt total... They're about to announce Canada's game mvp.... the camera's on Celebrini, who's already looking uncomfortable... seemingly hoping he doesn't get singled-out... His name is called... He involuntary rolls his eyes... Unselfish Kid... and THAT'S NO ACT...
Germany were so good at screen on the PP. Otherwise they leave something to desire but there's glimpses of greatness from a country not at all known for hockey.
... there are* glimpses of greatness. But right, it's finally time Germany performs well on an international level in a sport other than soccer. Germany became basektball world champion last year but instead of talking about this, everyone rather loves to complain how bad the national soccer team is.
@@smokindragn1 Whatcha smokin, smokindragn1? lol Dude was so far out of position multiple times. I suppose you can pick one as being the worse if ya want.
Most entertaining group stage game. Canada was obviously the better team but I couldn’t help but feel bad for the Germans as they really put everything into it and (for some reason) managed to stand toe to toe w Canada for two periods (when it comes to the score, that is).
Seeing what Germany did, or failed to do, vs Latvia was quite disappointing for me... after that fantastic game/result vs Suomi and playing well , really well, for 2 periods, the very next night vs Sweden... Germans were poised to face SVK in semis, though they would have been underdogs, this was a QF opponent they had a good chance to beat... All they had to do was to take care of business vs Latvia... BUT NO??? ... Now they face the very real threat of relegation in a winner takes all game vs Norway... If this was soccer, it would be fodder for an Italian Opera...
I think, no wonder, - Switzerland has long been playing toe to toe with Canada at championships, and it is a much smaller nation. In fact the German team is most promising.
Honestly, I think the shutout loss against Sweden had put a bit of an emotional curse on the Canadians that impacted their play in this game as well. With the convincing win at the end, I expect a lot more confidence and firepower in the next game from Canada. The shot clock tells the story, I think. The shots were 29-14 when the game was tied 3-3 mid 3rd period. Hope they can grow together from pulling this one out.
@@smrbult269 You'd think getting a face full of glass might teach a guy... I don't usually brush off dangerous hits with "keep your head up kid", but that one... you gotta know the hit is coming.
The goaltending has been off the mark for a lot of teams so far in the tournament. Too many open goal opportunities and too many shots are finding the back of the net. Defenses and keepers need to step it up.
This game was the poster for how the younger generation doesn't know how to play a physical game. It's hard to watch these players constantly put themselves in a position to get hit in all the wrong places. If someone is coming at you, you absolutely can't put your head down, especially near the boards.
I agree 99.9999% They usually show the penalty that caused the power play...but missed it, at least once, in this video. However...these videos are HEAD AND SHOULDERS above the "norm"!!!
Yes, very good editing but the only team who gets full highlight videos are Canada. Finland vs Sweden video was under 2 minutes and didnt even show the majority of the goals...
It must be said that this isn't a fault of these specific refs, the IIHF is very clear on the rule about hitting to the head, regardless of North America's rules.
I get it, but 10 min + game misconduct, but then 2 min for boarding only and a penalty for high stick when he clearly tried to shoot but missed. Havent seen the game, but from these highlights the refs look like a joke
@@guillateryeah they were a joke. They should have gave Canada even more penalties 😂 Oh and by the way, if you try to shoot and you miss, thats a high stick.
@@guillater2min on boarding was correct. The canadian turned last second and the already initiated tackle unavoidable. The major was correct because Geek directly hit the germans head in an avoidable tackle. In line with 48.1 international rules.
In the past Canada vs Germany was a blowout win. Canada is not going to play for the gold medal this year. Take away the last two goals and it was a close game
@ForkliftACE he litteraly started defending Gretzky's corner like it was an alternate way to score. Like bro if you plan on poke checking any harder you're gunna make fleury look good in any playoff situation
They were all powerplay goals though. So, the shots were better than average. They have an extra player to screen the goalie. Everyone was a screen shot.
Pathetic.. i hate what theyre doing to the game.. its almost like hitting is illegal.. the canada guy turned into it, you need to protect yourself.. the german guy had his head out, and got checked clean..early 2000s is the best era of hockey
So tall players can't ever hit smaller players? He aimed center mass and the height difference means shoulder -> head. He didn't jump, he didn't target, and he didn't extend his arms to make contact with an elbow. In any other league it's the definition of a clean hit.
Of course tall players can hit smaller ones (see Moritz Seider)... the problem is, that the german player was on a lower body position, so he got hit to the head, which is after international rules, a penalty. I also played hockey and it doesnt matter if the hit is clean, if it comes to the head, whistle gets blown...@@chriswattie3392
That they didnt take back the 2nd Goal for Cananda is a joke. But the German Player should have also gotten 5 min for the Boarding hit. Anyway GGs all around
Woo! Canada on to the round! I love it when a team steps up and gives Team Canada a hard time. Germany did a great job exposing some weakness on defense and taking advantage of their highly undisciplined play. It's bad for the sport when you don't even put up a fight but Germany gave it to Canada as good as they got it.
this game got thrown off when the worst non call happened with high sticking and then a 5 on 4 goal seconds later, should have been called back under review. Canada does not deserve to win this. Go Sweden
We have so much lethal offensive explosion, in regards to our forwards. I feel, we have less size and battle in the forwards. This being said, unfortunately we are playing against 6. Im not counting the tender as the 6th! Now, our D-core has to play consistent and play defensively and be the defending core, and allow, and trust the front line to bring our offence. Leave the goalie alone. And also, the fans have to be there! Let’s go boys! Go 🇨🇦 go!
The canadians need to stop turning just before they are going to get hit. Its a clean hit, just like the previous game vs sweden. Stop turning and you wont have that problem
It's NOT a clean hit when you see the guys in a vulnerable position and you don't ease up, but instead ACCELERATE THRU THE HIT... Or, as was the case in the game vs Sweden.... extend your arms a moment after making contact... It's 2 minutes all day every day for being a hit from behind (which falls under the auspices of needing to protect players, first and foremost, a la the major on Geekie) ... But what makes it a major, which would have been the right call imo, is the decision to accelerate thru the hit... You see the numbers, you gotta ease up, in that situation...
There's no easing up in 1 second while doing 25kmh on skates. You theorists need to stfu and lace up one day. Otherwise keep your yap shut about things you have no clue about. The turn and the hit happen in the space of less than a couple seconds. I'm Canadian I'm not biased. The Canadian player is being dumb af.
@@berryscott3590how can the guy ease up, litterly not even a second , after the Canadian turns? If the Canadian doesn’t turn, it’s a big, shoulder to shoulder on the boards hit. The German was skating hard to prevent the Canadian from cutting inside and ride him out along the boards. Don’t turn and you don’t have that situation
There's some veracity in what your saying, it's a judgement call, that's why they have the ability to review the play and go from 5 back down to 2, after the fact... athletes are capable of quite a lot within a split second... Guys hit hundred mph fast balls don't they? Were only talking about easing up and trying to protect the other guy, not avoiding the hit entirely... In the case of the hit from behind, the previous game vs Sweden, the Swede chose to extend his arms, a split second after contact... He did NOT need to do that, muscle memory, or no muscle memory... Think of boxers who twist their wrists just as they deliver a punch... OR MMA guys who straighten out the knee just as they deliver a sidekick... That Petgrave kid did that to Adam Johnson , that exact finishing move, at the last moment, which is what made it Manslaughter in my book... Do you disagree? If NOT... Then YES... you CAN and Should Ease Up... or at least have the appearance of this, rather than THE OPPOSITE... But again, that's what makes it a judgement call... It's NOT always gonna be Black or White... some grey involved @@MrRbirdy17
Unpopular opinion: It's good that turning yourself face to the plexiglass in the last moment doesn't give the opponent an instant 5min penalty. It wouldn't be nice if players used this tactic and voluntarily risked getting injured.
The Germans are producing a lot of NHL level stars in recent years. There's no reeason why, for instance, the Czech Rep with 10 million people should have more NHLers than German has with 70 million people. Germany is also a much richer country that can afford to pay for the kids to play ice hockey. The same also goes for Slovakia, Croatia, Slovania, Finland and Sweden. Doesn't make sense. Most of the countries just listed here have very small populations.
1. I would not want to be Germany (or ANY team) playing Team Canada after a loss (FTR, Sweden looks like a lock wo win it all!) 2. how would this game be different if the refs didn't miss the high sticking penalty before Canada scored? 3. Potrios...do NOT get hurt! 4. Go Team USA! 5. Happy (and safe) New Years!
If you ever want to see a good comedy show. just watch the IIHF refs. Seconds into the game, a 5 minute major gets called on Geekie for a absolute clean hit. Elbows low as you can go, no aiming at the head. The German player had his head down and was shorter and took it in the face. There was no way Geekie could not make head contact even if he tried. Even with video replay, slowed time x20, they still manage to mess up the call. So fine, you're gonna say head contact is automatic 5 minute major and disregard the fact that the offending player had no chance to avoid it. Then how come when the Canadian play gets dangerously rammed into the boards, its only a 2 minute minor?? The Canadian player may have turned last minute. But remember, the refs established the standard that it doesn't matter if the offending player can't avoid contact, it's still a 5 minute major. Again, another example with the inconsistency are the high sticking penalties. A Canadian player blatantly high sticked a German player when Canada was on the powerplay. This lead to a Canadian powerplay goal. But then later in the 3rd period, a Canadian player tries to shoot the puck, and the stick hits a German player gets the stick in the face. Anyone that watched one game of hockey knows that this is called a "follow through" and is NOT a penalty. But instead, the refs call it a double minor. So in other words, a blatant high stick is not a penalty, but a a follow through on a shot is a high stick? The IIHF is the only hockey organization in the world that is allowed to make up rules on the spot in the middle of games. They do this year after year. Every world juniors there is one game where the refs have to mess up the game by calling an incorrect 5 minute major. This is why the IIHF will continue to remain to be the joke of hockey refs.
@@EDToasty Jumped? I think you need to learn the definition of jump. Geekie's right skate was on the ice at all times. Since there are people like you that still think it's a dirty hit, now I understand how the refs can mess it up with video replay....
Being half German, I’m so proud of the German team. To even be in that close of a game against Canada, widely regarded as the strongest hockey country in the world is very impressive.
Geekie clean would have been hit in WHL/NHL/AHL this is just more proof and germans wanting calls all the time. Euros and some leagues produce less tough players and ounce in NHL not used to physicality. Still don't think Canada roster is how it should be Divincentiis and others should be on the team.
I'm Canadian, but I'm ashamed of this victory. We played very dirty and one of the goal should have been revoked. Very disappointed by canada and good job Germany, you played very well.
The first penalty was legit. The missed high stick on the German player was unacceptable. Calling that boarding penalty on Poitras only 2 minutes was despicable. International refereeing really is questionable at the best of times.
so Geeki is 6'4 and Schindler (who Geeki hit) is 5'11. Probably shouldnt be having Geeki hit him based on height. Im Canadian btw but that is not alright. u cant hit a guy in the head but at the same time its a bit of a height mismatch no? What do u guys think? Should the IIHF and the NHL put height limits on who u are and arent allowed to check? Say anything more than 3 inches?
Don’t turn away from the hit. That’s his fault, kids shouldn’t be taught that is a safe thing to do, take the hit like a man and you don’t get your head in the board
Second checking-from-behind call BLOWN for Canada in two games? What a freaking clown show, and it's a game misconduct if you drop the mitts too. Shameful.

Now, our D-core has to play consistent and play defensively and be the defending core, and allow, and trust the front line to bring our offence.
Leave the goalie alone. And also, the fans have to be there!
Let’s go boys!
Go 🇨🇦 go!
sexy German explosion
The canadians need to stop turning just before they are going to get hit. Its a clean hit, just like the previous game vs sweden. Stop turning and you wont have that problem
It's NOT a clean hit when you see the guys in a vulnerable position and you don't ease up, but instead ACCELERATE THRU THE HIT... Or, as was the case in the game vs Sweden.... extend your arms a moment after making contact... It's 2 minutes all day every day for being a hit from behind (which falls under the auspices of needing to protect players, first and foremost, a la the major on Geekie) ... But what makes it a major, which would have been the right call imo, is the decision to accelerate thru the hit... You see the numbers, you gotta ease up, in that situation...
There's no easing up in 1 second while doing 25kmh on skates. You theorists need to stfu and lace up one day. Otherwise keep your yap shut about things you have no clue about. The turn and the hit happen in the space of less than a couple seconds.
I'm Canadian I'm not biased. The Canadian player is being dumb af.
@@berryscott3590how can the guy ease up, litterly not even a second , after the Canadian turns? If the Canadian doesn’t turn, it’s a big, shoulder to shoulder on the boards hit. The German was skating hard to prevent the Canadian from cutting inside and ride him out along the boards. Don’t turn and you don’t have that situation
There's some veracity in what your saying, it's a judgement call, that's why they have the ability to review the play and go from 5 back down to 2, after the fact...
athletes are capable of quite a lot within a split second... Guys hit hundred mph fast balls don't they? Were only talking about easing up and trying to protect the other guy, not avoiding the hit entirely...
In the case of the hit from behind, the previous game vs Sweden, the Swede chose to extend his arms, a split second after contact... He did NOT need to do that, muscle memory, or no muscle memory...
Think of boxers who twist their wrists just as they deliver a punch... OR MMA guys who straighten out the knee just as they deliver a sidekick... That Petgrave kid did that to Adam Johnson , that exact finishing move, at the last moment, which is what made it Manslaughter in my book... Do you disagree? If NOT... Then YES... you CAN and Should Ease Up... or at least have the appearance of this, rather than THE OPPOSITE... But again, that's what makes it a judgement call... It's NOT always gonna be Black or White... some grey involved @@MrRbirdy17
The refs are so bad this year 🏒🥅
Unpopular opinion: It's good that turning yourself face to the plexiglass in the last moment doesn't give the opponent an instant 5min penalty. It wouldn't be nice if players used this tactic and voluntarily risked getting injured.
Great game from Germany. Well done!
The Germans are producing a lot of NHL level stars in recent years. There's no reeason why, for instance, the Czech Rep with 10 million people should have more NHLers than German has with 70 million people. Germany is also a much richer country that can afford to pay for the kids to play ice hockey. The same also goes for Slovakia, Croatia, Slovania, Finland and Sweden. Doesn't make sense. Most of the countries just listed here have very small populations.
1. I would not want to be Germany (or ANY team) playing Team Canada after a loss (FTR, Sweden looks like a lock wo win it all!)
2. how would this game be different if the refs didn't miss the high sticking penalty before Canada scored?
3. Potrios...do NOT get hurt!
4. Go Team USA!
5. Happy (and safe) New Years!
safe sexy time
Why would you ever show a goal for the first time as a replay? Why would you not show the live footage first?
If you ever want to see a good comedy show. just watch the IIHF refs. Seconds into the game, a 5 minute major gets called on Geekie for a absolute clean hit. Elbows low as you can go, no aiming at the head. The German player had his head down and was shorter and took it in the face. There was no way Geekie could not make head contact even if he tried. Even with video replay, slowed time x20, they still manage to mess up the call. So fine, you're gonna say head contact is automatic 5 minute major and disregard the fact that the offending player had no chance to avoid it. Then how come when the Canadian play gets dangerously rammed into the boards, its only a 2 minute minor?? The Canadian player may have turned last minute. But remember, the refs established the standard that it doesn't matter if the offending player can't avoid contact, it's still a 5 minute major. Again, another example with the inconsistency are the high sticking penalties. A Canadian player blatantly high sticked a German player when Canada was on the powerplay. This lead to a Canadian powerplay goal. But then later in the 3rd period, a Canadian player tries to shoot the puck, and the stick hits a German player gets the stick in the face. Anyone that watched one game of hockey knows that this is called a "follow through" and is NOT a penalty. But instead, the refs call it a double minor. So in other words, a blatant high stick is not a penalty, but a a follow through on a shot is a high stick?
The IIHF is the only hockey organization in the world that is allowed to make up rules on the spot in the middle of games. They do this year after year. Every world juniors there is one game where the refs have to mess up the game by calling an incorrect 5 minute major. This is why the IIHF will continue to remain to be the joke of hockey refs.
Guy jumped in to the hit and you call it a clean hit?
@@EDToasty Jumped? I think you need to learn the definition of jump. Geekie's right skate was on the ice at all times. Since there are people like you that still think it's a dirty hit, now I understand how the refs can mess it up with video replay....
7:40 out of context is hilarious
i was laughing at that part too man
Nah actually edgy Nazi humour isn't funny
@@secretlobsterclawsandother2060 Thats a Roman salute.
Reffs! 4 minute double minor!
2 goals on 7 shots is actually insane, Canada needs to do something about their goalie problem
It was actually 2 goals on 4 shots at one point, but either way... Yeah they do.
@@HeadshotDisorder hard to believe he’s 2nd in the tournament for save %, last game was the same story
Wtf are those highlights why canada has 10x longer highlights then other teams
Well done germany you already winners long time since germany was this good
What a ridiculous call. And the high stick was a follow through on a shot…..
They missed a blatant high-stick call on Canada earlier in the game, the one they show at 3:55. They're not robots
But he didn’t shoot? He tried but he missed and that is then a high stick.
2 mins for boarding ??? WTF is that call ?
stop turn 1 meter from the boards.
Being half German, I’m so proud of the German team. To even be in that close of a game against Canada, widely regarded as the strongest hockey country in the world is very impressive.
If I was German I just stay quiet. Worst reputation ever.
@@ianc643 Worst reputation in terms of what exactly?
Geekie is a legend for that idc
Geekie clean would have been hit in WHL/NHL/AHL this is just more proof and germans wanting calls all the time. Euros and some leagues produce less tough players and ounce in NHL not used to physicality.
Still don't think Canada roster is how it should be Divincentiis and others should be on the team.
These lads better stop taking stupid penalties or it will cost them.
imagine if Celebrini tried fist bumping the German goalie at 8:41?
That’s a back check!
What’s better ford or Chevy?
You mean low lights? No cohesion on this team.
I suspect the German goaltender play soccer, that would explain his sorties far from his goal.
😆
So you put 10 minutes for Canada vs Germany
And you put not even 2 minutes for Sweden vs Finland
Ok….
When you get scored on by a team in the exact same way every goal, you have a problem. Canada needs to fix its pk
The hit from behind not even being reviewed... brutal. So much more dangerous than a hit where the guy ducks....
Yeah cuz a guy turning last second is so much worse
Why that canadian boy turned his back when the hit was coming?
Poitras okay?
I'm Canadian, but I'm ashamed of this victory. We played very dirty and one of the goal should have been revoked. Very disappointed by canada and good job Germany, you played very well.
Hahaha. You’re not Canadian.
The first penalty was legit. The missed high stick on the German player was unacceptable. Calling that boarding penalty on Poitras only 2 minutes was despicable. International refereeing really is questionable at the best of times.
" its something wrong, eh.. "
- esl, heisman.
This Canada team has been very disappointing and I can’t see them going much further if they don’t step it up
Right After Canadian Boys Learn How To Walk ...
They Put Skates On Them !!! 🤣😅😂
anyone only getting 360p avaliable?
Was uploaded 4 minutes ago that is why
Are you new to CZcams?
so Geeki is 6'4 and Schindler (who Geeki hit) is 5'11. Probably shouldnt be having Geeki hit him based on height. Im Canadian btw but that is not alright. u cant hit a guy in the head but at the same time its a bit of a height mismatch no? What do u guys think? Should the IIHF and the NHL put height limits on who u are and arent allowed to check? Say anything more than 3 inches?
Don’t turn away from the hit. That’s his fault, kids shouldn’t be taught that is a safe thing to do, take the hit like a man and you don’t get your head in the board
Что то судейство отвратительное. Не должно быть такого на таких соревновпниях.
The commentator saying that the German player got highsticked clearly needs to get his eyes checked
Brutal calls from the refs
👍👍🇨🇦🇨🇦👏👏
Да на этом турнире судьи канадцев не сильно жалуют...иногда очень странные решения против кленовых..!
03:04- не дали же.Тут явное-игра высокоподнятой клюшкой
Новая Звёздочка Канады- Маклин Селебрини 17😊 Кленовые разозлились после поражения от Швеции😂
Germany might have won if their goalie could figure out where his net is 😂😂😂
Conner you have to learn to pay the entire tournament .
That second canadian goal shouldn't have been counted!
There's only one country that frightens me - that's the country of... Germany.
Without Russia in the tournament hardly worth watching
Warren and l’amoureux needs to get the traffic in front of Rousseau out of his way
Second checking-from-behind call BLOWN for Canada in two games? What a freaking clown show, and it's a game misconduct if you drop the mitts too. Shameful.
