The Philippines are now 2-2 at the #WomensWorlds D3B after a 2-1 win over South Africa!
At the #WomensWorlds D3B, the Philippines dropped their third game of the tournament, to Israel by a score of 3-1
#WomensWorlds D3B:
1. EST (3-0-0-0) = 9
2. ISR (2-0-0-1) = 6
3. BIH (2-0-0-1) = 6
4. PHI (1-0-0-2) = 3
5. RSA (1-0-0-2) = 3
6. SGP (0-0-0-3) = 0
As D3B is the lowest tier, no one is relegated (provided no new teams join next year to form a D4)
Congratulations to the Philippine women's hockey team for getting their first ever win in history, an 8-0 win over Singapore at the #WomensWorlds D3B!
So... an angry Estonian on reddit thinks that Canada cheated in the men's semifinal vs Finland because of the supposedly-offside 3-2 goal.
A goal that Finland challenged, and was ultimately ruled onside by an AMERICAN and a DANISH line judge.

Excuse me, OverDrive? Yes, the players can go win the Stanley Cup but that isn't remotely close to the same thing as an Olympic gold.
And the World Championships are coming up in May...
TSN OverDrive, why does it matter now if the right players were picked for Team Canada? The tournament ended 4 days ago.

I was referring to gold medal games, but you are correct
Team Canada's picture after winning the 2023 World Junior Championship in 3 on 3 OT
Team Canada's picture after winning the 2024 IIHF Women's World Championship in 3 on 3 OT (albeit on a powerplay)
Team Canada's picture after winning the 2021 IIHF Men's World Championship in 3 on 3 OT
Team Canada's picture after winning the 2021 IIHF Women's World Championship in 3 on 3 OT
Team Canada's picture after winning the 2022 World Junior Championship in 3 on 3 OT
Team Canada's picture after winning the 2023 Hlinka Gretzky Cup in 3 on 3 OT
The problem wasn't the format. All of these were won in 3 on 3 OT.

2021 #MensWorlds and #WomensWorlds.
2022 #WorldJuniors.
2023 WJC.
2023 #HlinkaGretzkyCup.
2024 WWC.
All gold medals Canada won in 3 on 3 OT.
The format was not why we lost either gold medal game at #MilanoCortina2026, media.
Just stop.
Across all IIHF play since the start of 2024, Canada is 3-8 vs the U.S. ... and 73-10 vs everyone else

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
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.
In my opinion, we've lost our right to be arrogant about our hockey teams a LONG time ago.
Canadian media: If a Canadian national hockey team is supposedly "the best team ever assembled", let them show us on the ice, and we can declare them that AFTER the tournament is over.
Canada's women AND men's teams need a coaching staff that is focused on the national team (like the European countries seem to have).
Clearly a coach that only has the job whilst taking a break from the N/PWHL isn't working.
USA: Has not lost an elimination game by more than one goal since Canada beat them 3-0 in the gold medal game of the 2025 #U18WomensWorlds.

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.
Understatement.
This is going to be the longest wait until the #U18MensWorlds of my life.
The U.S. has a stranglehold on the IIHF world, being the reigning champions at 5 of 7 tournaments.
