From watching the Ottawa Senators at the Canadian Tire Centre (CTC) to their son stepping on the same ice to represent Canada — Cole Beaudoin's parents say the feeling is surreal.

Born and raised in Ottawa, Beaudoin is one of the 25 players wearing the maple leaf at the 2025 World Junior Hockey Championship.

"We grew up just watching it [so] for him now to be part of it and be in his hometown and have all the support from the local community, it's going to be amazing," his father Eric Beaudoin said.

The Canadian hockey holiday tradition officially kicks off Thursday, returning to Ottawa after 15 years.
