World Jr's 2014

[Bear55]

Little late on this, for that that don't know this is a best of best under 20 tournament. Pretty much all the future NHL talent plays in this tournament.

USA vs Canada today at 10:30 - should be a good one.

US is 3-0 and looking good, Canada is 2-0-1 SOL and has looked a little sloppy, its anyones game.

Favs are Sweden, Russia, Canada and USA. Fins, Slovaks, Czechs, Swiss are a step behind the top teams. We have been good recently winning in 2010 and 2013 and a few medals in between. Canada use to dominate this thing but it has been a while since they have taken gold and I think the rest of the world is loving it!

Games on TV?

All I have found is a live stream at NHL.com

Stream here, might be on nhl network or any Canadian networks.

Wow Canada owns us 27-3 all time in this tourney. It is good to know that 2 of our 3 wins were for gold.

[Bear55]

Good game so far, US better in the first and Canada looking good now. 1-1 with C going on the PP.

[harvey lee]

End of 2, tied 1-1. Gonna be a great 3rd period.

[harvey lee]

2-1 Canada, scored on another power play. Team USA cannot continue to send guys to the box if they are going to have any chance to win.

[harvey lee]

3-1 Canada, another penality and another pp goal. Just about out of reach now unless they reall start to play better and no more guys to the box.

[Bear55]

shizz, we were looking good but Canada just scored on back to back PP's. Still lots of time.

[harvey lee]

They have to stay out of the box or they have zero chance bear. Canada is to skilled of a team to go down 3-1 on pp goals.

[Bear55]

Fun game, now onto the real stuff, win or go home time. 2nd seed will get a little harder draw but there are not a lot of easy games these days, have to beat the best to win it all.

[yakfisher]

Great game to watch. Hopefully, we meet again for the big prize!

[harvey lee]

Win could have been our's without all the guys in the box. We gave that one away.

[Bear55]

Yep sounds like we took too many penalties. Didn't see the game but it sound like Russia (and this is common) got a little cocky at the end and did some taunting. On the empty net goal the Russian scorer skated by the US bench tooting his own horn and promptly took a stick to the face by one of the US players. Don't usually condone that kind of stuff but since its Russia and all I think I won't shed any tears over that one as it was just a love tap.

[Bear55]

Despite the US losing this tournament ended really well, Canada and Russia lost in the semis and Finland came out of no where and beat a favored Sweden team on their home ice.

I wish I had seen some of the games, were any televised other than the streaming? I completely blew it and didnt look it up. Would have been fun to watch the Russia game, I heard it was brisk LOL

[Bear55]

NHL.com was streaming the US games, they will probably continue to do that in the future. Canada dedicates about 3 networks to cover it up there so the NHL does their best to cover the US team.
