Who do you think has more at stake at their respective upcoming U18 tournament - Switzerland's men here, or Finland's women next year?

Canada needs to come back with a vengeance at the #U18MensWorlds, #MensWorlds and #WomensWorlds.

The last time Canada didn't hold a title anywhere (Jan 1989 - Jan 1990), the following things didn't exist yet:

1. #WomensWorlds
2. #U18MensWorlds (in its current form)
3. #U18WomensWorlds
4. The women's Olympic tournament
5. Me

0 0 0 0

Canada is one tournament away from making history, and not in a good way.

If the #U18MensWorlds team fails to win gold, it will be the first time since all 7 IIHF events have existed (WU18 is youngest, launched 2008) that Canada will not be the reigning champion at any of them.

Thank you all for following along with me during the women's and men's #MilanoCortina2026 tournaments.

It was an honour to bring you these updates, and if you're reading this, I thank you for trusting me.

2 months to #U18MensWorlds.

At least other Canadians have their NHL teams to go back to.

This is going to be the longest wait until the #U18MensWorlds of my life.

This #U18WomnesWorlds is the 12th IIHF tournament since the start of 2024.

If Canada wins this game, it will be the 8th time in those 12 tournaments that Canada and Czechia meet at some point in the medal round (QF or later)

This #U18WomensWorlds has produced a ton of entertaining games; it's disappointing that TSN has so far only carried games involving the North American teams... (same goes for #U18MensWorlds)
