Carson Rehkopf and Brayden Yager were key players for Canada, with Rehkopf providing assists and Yager scoring. The game also saw Adam Sykora and Filip Mesar scoring for their respective teams.
Wow. Filip Mesar (MTL) has scored with 43 seconds left. This is unbelievable. He leaps into the Slovak bench. We’re tied. 3-3. #GoHabsGo #WorldJuniors
🚨 Adam Sýkora (NYR) certainly didn't hesitate to celly like there was no doubt it was a good goal! 🚨 https://t.co/n42Rqd9Net https://t.co/Uv27KAQoS6
With mere seconds on the clock, Adam Sykora (NYR) scores off of a set play off a draw *at the buzzer*. It’s under review but it looked in. What a play from the Slovak captain! #NYR #WorldJuniors
Adam Sykora (NYR) celebrating as if he scored... doesn't look like it crossed the line in time, though.
Easton Cowan (TOR) gets his first point of the tournament… barely. Hits the post on the empty net and then pushes it in on the second try. He was the last Canadian forward without a point. 6-3 Canada and that’ll do it. #WorldJuniors
Second assist of the game for Rehkopf on the 4-3 goal for Canada. He now has four points in four games for Canada. #SeaKraken https://t.co/bYYhj1vo82
Jordan Dumais gets his first goal of the World Juniors at a key time for Canada, giving them the lead in the third period vs. Germany. #CBJ third-round pick gets off the schneid. https://t.co/S69UU0ljhY
Jordan Dumais (CBJ) with some instant redemption after the penalty. He scores on the PP to make it 4-3 Canada.
Canada now has a double-minor for high sticking on Jordan Dumais (CBJ). Germany's PP is 2-for-2 so far today... ... ... Canada up 3-2 presently.
Rehkopf sets up the 3-2 goal for Canada. His third point of the tournament. #SeaKraken https://t.co/bYYhj1vo82
Owen Beck (MTL) makes it 3-2 Canada off a great feed from Carson Rehkopf (SEA).
Owen Beck (MTL) scores to make it 3-2. His first point of the tournament. Canada can breathe (a little). #GoHabsGo #WorldJuniors
As we enter the third period with Canada and Germany tied 2-2, some notes on the series. Canada vs. Germany at the WJC: 16-0-0 Canada goals all-time: 101 Germany Goals all-time: 23 Germany needs one point in the standings to advance to medal round.
Not a sentence I expected to type: Germany and Canada head into the second intermission tied, 2-2, in the preliminary-round finale. #WorldJuniors
Just 24 hours ago Germany lost 6-2 to Latvia. They’re now tied 2-2 with Canada through two periods.
Carson Rehkopf (SEA) has had half a dozen glorious chances to score in this game and Canada’s best finisher (in junior) hasn’t been able to.
Germany has tied it. 2-2. Two goals on four shots.
Germany knots it up on the power play as Roman Kechter goes down hill and absolutely rips one over Mathis Rousseau. 2-2.
Canada leads Germany 2-1 after 1 thanks to goals from Mack Celebrini (2024) and Brayden Yager (PIT).
With a German player down at the other end and no whistle, Brayden Yager (PIT) makes it 2-1 Canada on a weird 5-on-3 advantage in zone. #WorldJuniors
