Yesterday, local boy Brad Marchand has a goal and an assist to lead Team
Canada to a 4-1 semi-final win over the favoured US team at the world Junior
Hockey Championships
I'm watching the championship game this afternoon against Sweden and the
score after one period is Canada 2 Sweden 0.
You guessed it...Marchand has a goal and an assist. It doesn't get any
better than that! Oooh rah!

Game over. Canada won 3-2 in overtime, winning it's 4th straight World
Junior Hockey championship..
We had quite a scare as Sweden tied things up in the 3rd and were comimg on
strong. ("looked comfortable on their skates" as my wife would say)
note: Sweden were well rested after getting a bye into the final for having
the best record in the 'round robin' tournament.
Canada had a big game yesterday against the American team.
