OTTAWA Ahead of Canada’s gold medal game at the 2021 World Junior Championship against the USA, residents in the Ottawa Valley are cheering for more than just game. Stalwart goaltender Devon Levi and Cobden native Jack Quinn are both looking to realize their junior hockey dream. Levi earned his chance to represent Team Canada following his stellar performance with the Carleton Place Canadians. In his only year with the team, during the 2019/2020 season, Levi posted a record of 34-2-1. “For me, to see him where he is right now is not surprising to me, but he has surprised a lot of people in the country,” says Jason Clarke, Head Coach and General Manager of the Canadians. “The thing that separates Devon from a lot of goaltenders and hockey players I’ve been around in the game is his mental preparation and how he conducts himself away from the rink.”
And on the 12th day, the Hockey Gods gifted us with the perfect ending to the 2021 IIHF World Junior Championship Canada versus the United States with a gold medal on the line. It did not disappoint.
Entering the game, Canada was earmarked for a win. After all, the team had only allowed four goals through six games and was coming off back-to-back shutouts. But when the final buzzer sounded it was the Americans, instead, with a 2-0 win.
MVP Trevor Zegras played a key role with a goal and an assist on Alex Turcotte s opener. The Ducks prospect backed up what he said pregame to NHL Network s Jill Savage.
