WHL Standouts At The 2025 Hlinka Gretzky Cup: Gold & Bronze Medal Games

The 2025 Hlinka Gretzky Cup wrapped up on Saturday with Team USA winning Gold and Team Canada winning Bronze. Both games were close to the end, with the Americans and Canadians winning by a combined five goals. Just like they have for the entire tournaments, WHLers played key roles for their teams, with Noah Davidson, Shaeffer Gordon-Carroll and Daxon Rudolph having standout performances. Noah Davidson, Team USA Davidson had a game to remember against Sweden. The Medicine Hat Tigers forward recorded a goal and an assist en route to a 5-3 victory in the Gold Medal game. If Davidson can be a similar net-front presence once he gets to the WHL, then he is going to be a problem for opposing defenders next season. Shaeffer Gordon-Carroll, Team USA Gordon-Carroll was able to have an impact for Team USA despite not recording a point. The Tigers forward was constantly being mentioned on the broadcast and was used in the final minutes to help secure the Gold Medal. Fans in Medicine Hat should start to get excited, as between Gordon-Carroll, Davidson and the Ruck brothers, the Tigers have built what should be an exciting team in 2025-26. Daxon Rudolph- Team Canada Rudolph played a key role in Canada's 3-0 win over Finland. The Prince Albert Raiders defenceman recorded an assist on the Canadian first goal of the game, and the scored the empty netter which solidified the win. If anything, Rudolph's performance throughout the tournament showed why he is considered a top prospect for the 2026 NHL Entry Draft.
