Dylan Guenther is going to haunt the Canucks for a long time

It was a goal that ended one of the most thrilling World Junior tournaments in recent memory.

Despite a valiant effort from Czechia to tie the game 2-2 in the third, Dylan Guenther’s second goal of the game led Canada to their 20th gold medal at this tournament.

If only it wasn’t so bittersweet for Canucks fans.

As you well know, Guenther was selected with the ninth overall pick in the 2021 draft — which is the pick Jim Benning traded to the Arizona Coyotes in a package for Oliver Ekman-Larsson and Conor Garland.
