The US prevailed - narrowly - over Finland last night and will now play our Canadians in the Gold Medal game later today. First up, Finland vs Russia for the Bronze.

Too bad he wasn't at the game yesterday pete, he might have been able to get the Russian team on the ice in time. LOL

I missed the first few minutes of the game and so had no idea until watching the post game show that the Russians actually were late showing up for the game. Canada was on the blue line ready for puck drop. When the Russians finally did show up they skated around their end of the ice totally...

Canada blanked the Russians 5 zip. They scored early and they scored late and in between they literally skated rings around the Russian players. They owned the ice tonight. The Russians had a few chances but Devon Levi shut the door every single time and looked so composed in the net. Off...

The US prevailed with a 5 - 2 win over the Slovakian team - they will now play the Fins in one semi-final while Canada will play the Russians. The games will take place tomorrow January 4th.

I'm off to never never land just at the US takes a 2 nothing lead with 8:05 left in the 2nd P. The Slovaks especially their goalie have been really good at denying the US goals but this one came at the end of a PP. Will check the score in the morning.

3 zip the final. The Czechs played a helluva game and had chance after chance at the goal. Were it not for Devon Levi in the net, the score might have been very different. Our defense barely resembled the one that played the Fins but expect that will be taken care before the semi-final...

The Czechs pulled their goalie with just over 5 minutes left in the 3rd P and though they peppered Levi with numerous shots it was Canada's McMichael who got the go ahead empty-net goal for a 3 - 0.

End of the 2nd P. Canadians still ahead by 2. Czechs still getting their chances but Levi denies them everytime. Defense still needs some work but all in all, our kids are playing a solid game.

So, so 1rst P for our kids. They are on the board with 2 goals but they also allowed the Czechs 12 SOGs. Ray Ferraro put it this way ' when they are on the puck they are great but when they're off they end up trailing the Czechs. They need to tighten up their defense. Czechs are giving them...

After sleeping their way through the first P, Finland started to come alive in the second and went full throttle through it and the third. Sweden had a 2 point lead until midway through the 2nd when the Fins tied them. The winning goal came with 23.3 seconds left on the clock. Finland 3 -...

Russia wins the first quarterfinal 2 - 1. Congratulations to the Russian players. I also congratulate the Germans who are the youngest team in the tourney and having faced adversity early on, never gave up and gave it their best. See you next year Germany. Up next Finland vs Sweden in the...

I was remiss in not mentioning the outstanding coaching by our Canadian staff. Well done, all. This is perhaps the most disciplined Junior team I've watched in awhile and I am truly happy to see a drop in the number of penalties. Also, well done.

With just over a minute left in the final period, our Captain Dylan Cozens - who scored the first goal of the game - sealed the deal with an well-fought for empty-netter to give Canada a 4 - 1 lead and .........................................THE WIN! Congrats Canada. Really well done, lads...

I am happy you friend recovered, pgs and didn't need to be hospitalized. There are many stories of people who had similar experiences after having contacted the virus. If a person is otherwise healthy, they don't need medical care - self-isolation is all that is needed. That said, he would...

It took a PP plus 2 full periods and into the 3rd for the Fins to get on the board and drop Canada's lead to 2. The winner of this game will top Pool A - the teams are currently tied for 1rst. Canada not quite so sharp in this period but were simply outstanding in the 1rst and 2nd with a...

They have, ts. Everyone I know around here has a couple of pairs. Mine have coils of metal instead of spikes and they work a charm. Really came in handy this year as we have had to deal with ice for over a month now.

Well we could always invade them. ;)

Sheesh. Ellis Island? All one has to do is plan ahead - get checked out, get your health certificate and you are good to go.
