It Just Wasn’t Our Day

Congratulations go out to the US Under 20 Hockey Team, as they defeated Canada 6-5 in overtime to win the IIHF World Junior Championships in a game for the ages. Some records are meant to be broken and others aren’t. Canada’s Jordan Eberle became the top all-time scorer for Canada with his two goals late in the the third period to tie the game at 5-5, but the record of 6 consecutive titles was not to be for the Canadian side. The Americans played a fast paced game and blocked as many shots in the game as I’ve ever seen. Kudos to them. I hope the young ones enjoy it as the upcoming Olympic tournament is going to be sheer madness. We (Canada as a country) cannot wait.
