World Junior Hockey Championship

In fairness the Canadian goalie played a blinder.

The IIHF should just give us the trophy every year and let everyone else play for second place.

Failing that, Canada should be forced to send a team that is not allowed to participate but whose players are selected by the remaining teams in a mini-draft. Those Canadians would then wear red jerseys so everyone knows just how much better they make the other teams. Every Canadian would also get a gold medal no matter which nation won.

:lol:

It would be good for the sport if Russia and others like the Czechs began producing great youth teams again.

Markström was clearly the first to reach the puck, hence him clearing the puck before Esposito tripped him. Esposito was nowhere near the puck and was only out to bring him down. And even if it was an interference, Esposito wouldn't have been able to score had he been penalised and it had been 5 on 5.

Ah, see, I felt that Markström was simply coming off the ice for the extra man and the puck was already on the boards.
 
Haha!! Way to go, Canada! If only Canada could do just that well in football...sigh...

EDIT: I convinced my friends I supported Sweden, even if I didn't care who won. (Why don't I care? Because Hockey is something I don't watch)

Finding it hard to figure out the comic element in this post.

You must be a Ice Hockey fan...I guess!
