Canada and USA play their regular New Years Eve game, I love this tournament!
Side note, Buffalo hosts it in 2018 and the Canada - USA game will be outside at New Era Stadium.
Why are they going to let us host it? Nobody will care down here, whereas it's a national event up there.
It's not a Canadian event, its the IIHF. Canada hosts it every second year, the other years are shared between the other teams, its a big deal in Russia, Sweden, Finland, Czech Republic. It usually does really well in the US as well, but being in Buffalo it's going to be 75% Canadians there. North Dakota did a good job hosting it. If you like hockey, the World Juniors are awesome. You have the best young players in the world, which most are or will be drafted, playing their Olympics. The best part of it is its junior hockey so there are still mistakes and leads to more exciting hockey, kind of like college football.

It's Monday.
Sweden is killing Denmark 6-0
Latvia vs USA 330pm
Finland vs Czech 5pm
Russia vs Canada 8pm
Times are Eastern.
The Czech Republic scored with about a minute left to beat Finland.
Excited to see the Commies versus Socialists here in about 30 mins.
Yeah, that was crazy. I think the shots were 31-3 going into the third. I ended up watching the Jackets instead. 13 in a row! I got kinda pissed when Canada beat Russia. I feel like I'm watching the World Cup again. ******* Canadians. Some good, young players though. Dubois was drafted by Columbus. Jost and Meyers look pretty good.
Yeah. If the Jackets beat the Jets and the Wild beat whoever they play, it's gonna be a big game. I'm just happy Bobrovsky finally beat Boston. I'd be stoked if he got the Vezina. I agree about the Preds. It's a long season.
The Flyers seem to have a lot of good players in this tournament.
Blue Jackets beat a hot Wild team in Minnesota. The capitalist pigs also beat the socialist ********. Wooo!!
