Following a 7-year gold medal drought, Team Canada assembled what might be the greatest World Juniors team ever at the 2005 tournament in Grand Forks Michigan. Featuring players like Sidney Crosby and Patrice Bergeron, here’s how this legendary team was assembled, and got Canada back in the gold.

Red deer team was damn good
Damn that team was stacked
because they didn't have fucking old dinosaurs managing and picking the roster like we do now
The talent pool for Canada was out of this world.
Imagine if Connor Bedard and Macklin Celebrini were on this year's team.
2019 and last year finishing 5th and 6th place.
….i dunno, i think team canada 1987 team would knock 2005 team Canada's teeth out ❤
Have to say that was a stacked lineup. Perry is simply incredible, final pick. Had to cut his hair, hilarious.
I dunno….. In 2024 the WJC has entered the world class era, gone are the days of 13-0 mollywhoopings of "relegation" caliber squads…. HAIL LATVIA 😮
3:25 In today's soft world, that type of coaching style (a style that made me out of boys) would be considered toxic.
Without question the best junior team from any country, never mind junior Team Canada, that has ever been created.
That team could have had a 17 year old Jonathan Toews too
double dion!
Team was so good none of the girls they ran trains on had buyers remorse like the Carter Hart team.
Would be great if TSN uploaded full gold medal games from the 2000s
I love how Getzlaf was already going bald
The final that Ovi abandoned his team. He left the bench. That's why I have never liked him. 🇨🇦
And how many Stanleys have Canadian teams got after that?
The lockout that’s how it happend lol
How sweet were those goooooold jerseys hot damn
Wow, coach knew what he was looking for. Picked up 4 powerball tickets and all won except one just missing the powerplay.
This is the worst coached team in Canadian history. Bench the guys taking stupid penalties. Shorten your bench and get the guys that are going on the Ice. This is an opportunity for these guys to sacrifice, not a favor they are doing Canada. No guts all glory this team.
This team would beat the worst NHL team
Time for a hockey summit, the team this year is horrible.
we should do a world seniors game, everyone 35 plus 😂😂😂
Without the russia wjc is not the same
