Canada 8 - Slovakia 2
Canada plays the USA New Years eve and this should be a very good game, both teams currently 3-0.
Canadian juniors roll on against Slovakia
Canada vs USA
This game was to see who gets the bye into the semi finals with both teams 3-0 going in.
For the first 50 minutes of this game Canada played bad. Coughing up the puck far too often, giving away 2 short-handed goals, etc. But with 10 minutes remaining the one thing we are known for is never giving up. Losing 4-2 with under 10 minutes left, the team dug deep and got focused and tied it up, sending it to overtime, which proved nothing, and then to a shootout. The shoot out proved the difference with Canada scoring all 3 times, to the USA's 2.
Final score 5-4 and Canada gets the bye.
You were cheering for the US?

Thus said, I am positve we can go for the gold at the moment, it looks damn fine for our boys and this close victory can only make them to think about the importance of discipline.

That's the way it is, not the way it ends
Yes, I was. Jordan Schroeder, who plays for the U.S., was the Canucks first round pick in the 2009 draft and quite frankly I am so goddamn sick of hearing about the Canadian juniors. They're playing on home ice (again), they've won the last 5 years in a row, and I am fucking tired of having them rammed down my throat. Regardless of the fact that I won the geographic lottery when I was born I will not be cheering for the Canadian junior team. Fuck 'em. I hope they lose and I hope Pierre McGuire goes insane as a result so I never have to hear him give another 2 hour long verbal handjob to the Canadian team while calling the games.
The Swiss just beat the Russians. That is beyond awesome.

While the Swiss showed moxy and determination in taking out the Russians, sending them into the semi-finals, the Canadian team proved to be too much of a task as the semi played through earlier today.
Final score Canada 6 - Switzerland 1
Sweden plays the USA tonight to determine who will face Canada in the final. Either team should prove to be strong enough to make it an exciting game as Canada continues the drive for world junior hockey supremacy and 6 consecutive wins.
The final will be played Tuesday.
The USA beat Sweden 5-2 and the stage is set.
After the last game, in which the USA dominated the greater portion of, Canada needs to come ready for this one from the opening puck drop. Having heart and never giving up in one thing, but playin from behind is never a good thing.
Should be a great game.
Go Canada!

I was hoping Sweden would win, but oh well. Go America!
