2020 World Jr's

[Ohtobbad]

This annual tournament is something I look forward to every year.
It begins this morning, with 4 games on the schedule today.
With some of the best young players in the world.
From the top hockey nations it is always some great hockey.

Who else watches this tournament ?

 

[Ohtobbad]

Canada starts today against the USA @ 1:00pm
and Sat versus Russia.
2 very tough teams and long time Canadian rivals.

Looking forward to the tradition of watching this year. Friend of mine is there watching. Bucket list for sure. Good news I found then games on a US channel so I won't miss the first fee games.
Happy Boxing Day and the start of so good hockey.
Who's going to win?

Silly Question, Canada

I am not so confident, these other countries have been going to school on us. Competition is tough.

I catch Can games but follow other pool matches. All early games, so recording a few and avoid tournament updates til into the game.

Now it’s 5-4 for Canada ?

 

[TrueBlue02058]

Empty netter makes it 6-4 with 1 minute to go ?

I believe there was a doubter or two.
Incredible game and truly not over till it's over.
Can and US never disappoint.

Canada 6 USA 4
CZE 4 Russia 3
SUI 5 Kaz 3
Sweden 3 Fin 2 in OT.

 

[pei_guy]

A jittery start for both. Not sure if either coach is going to be happy with PK performance. Entertaining from the stands tho.

Wahoo Team Canada pulled out with a win. 6-4 final. Penalty’s are going to be the killer that’s for sure. There power play is awesome however their penalty kill against US was not the greatest. 6 power play goals 3 per side. Nice to get the win.

 

[Ohtobbad]

couple of games today,
GER @ USA
SVK @ KAS

It will be interesting to watch US play moving forward as well. They have some good players.
