World Junior Hockey Tournament

Have watched one full game so far (vs Sweden) and will watch Friday too, 7 am:(

Bernier was not too pleased to learn that he would not start against Robbie's team on Friday.....I don't know if his English is not good or what but he was interviewed on TSN and spoke in French that the decision sucks and he only heard from his teammates that he would not start. Sounds like a bit of an egomaniac that TEAM Canada does not need??

It could be the fact that he heard it from his teammates and not his head coach. Every goaltender, at that level, wants to play, especially in his last year of eligibility for the WJHC.

2-0 late in 2nd, looking pretty good right now.

just listened to the win over USA on radio... in fact I've listened to most Canada games in the tournament this year. And what I have really enjoyed (besides Canadian victories) is that the radio broadcast has a mic on the Canadian players during the national anthem following the wins. It is so great to hear these kids belting out O'Canada with such enthusiasm and pride! Good job to the radio broadcast crew for capturing the real emotion of the moment.

Best game of the tournament by Canada by far. Now we get another shot at Robbie's other favourite team Sweden.

Am looking foreword to the Canada v Sweden game, but I don't know how I am going to make it through this Bronze medal sleeper going on right now. Russia up 4-0 early in the second period, with the usa showing no signs of life, or of caring. Not surprising, but still a little disappointing.

Oh well, the Canada game will be MUCH better with two talented teams pulling out all the stops! Go Canada Go!!

Why does this Team Canada keep shutting down in the 3rd? Let's put all the stuff we have done properly to this point and throw it out the window. The mad scramble is the best defense ...

And what is it with the stupid prevent defense they are running late in the game? Attack attack attack gets you a 2 goal lead and doinating the game. So for the final frame let's sit on our heels and stop skating and just wait for the opposition to come to us.

Better have a good change of thinking in the OT ...

[CartWheelFan]

That's a brutal shot of the ref having to go over and check on the Swedish goaltender who was still facedown on the ice after the goal.

On the bright side... Yeah baby!! Canada is golden!

[LFITQ]

Whew!!!!!

[lion24]

A little too much for my heart to take!!!! Way to go Canada.........Sorry Robbie that both your teams didn't quite make it

[nelson95]

No kidding! You might think that a least one of his teamates might come over and pat him on the back and tell him what a great tournament he played fer ChrisSakes. That and I was a little surpised and dissapointed that not one Swedish player won a tournament award. I mean, they went through to the Gold Medal game undefeated and came within an ace of winning the whole thing. A bit ridiculous really.
