Right now, the best young players in the world of hockey are taking part in the World Junior Summer Showcase, a summer camp that allows kids to leave a good impression in preparation for this winter’s World Junior Championship.Michael Hage is playing an important role in Team Canadiens’ camp, and Finland’s Aatos Koivu is one of the players in attendance. Yesterday, Saku’s son had a good game, even if he didn’t get on the score sheet, and today, Koivu was back in action against one of the U.S. teams (in which LJ Mooney plays)… and this time, he got on the scoresheet with a beautiful goal.

So we’ll see if Koivu can continue to impress over the next few days, but it’s great to see him finding a flair for the net. And above all, it should help him earn points toward a possible selection for the next WJC.And that would be cool for the kid… but now it’ll be up to him to keep the pedal to the floor.[spacer title=’Overtime’]- Love it.

“Montreal is definitely great. The arena is huge, the fans are incredibly good and interact with the team. It’s like a big family.” pic.twitter.com/tY0GGZ9ZXG– /r/Habs (@HabsOnReddit) July 28, 2025
