World Hockey Juniors
 
http://www.hockeywilderness.com/2017/1/2/14144462/world-junior-hockey-2017-quarterfinal-preview-usa-canada-sweden-russia-kaprizov-kunin

The preliminary rounds are over and the USA faces off against Russia tomorrow afternoon in the semi-finals. We are looking pretty good!

looking really good. they certainly are.
love the fast paced action.

Canada is certainly gonna have to pull their (hockey) socks, if Canada and the USA meet again.

It 4 good teams and yes Canada has to bring the "A" game if they want to move to the final, the Swede's look good so that's going to be a tough one, USA vs Russia will be a great game too and the gold medal game should be top notch hockey.
I really like the World Jr's but I wished they would start the tournament earlier than Boxing Day so we could have the final on new years day instead of when everyone is back at work.
My pick is gold for Canada

That was a tough game for Canada. Hope they have a great recovery regimen....

Should be fun to watch tomorrow!

creaturecat 01-04-2017 07:29 PM

that was great coaching decision. changing out the Canadian goalie quickly, after 3 shots/2 goals.
