sprig Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Seemed like Saros should have been the all tourney goalie, but we didn't see the Finns in the preliminaries when they lost twice (to Sweden and Switzerland). Sweden the only team to go undefeated until the gold medal game, so maybe Dansk was deserving. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MafiaMan Posted January 5, 2014 Share Posted January 5, 2014 Brutal Group A next year: Finland Canada USA Slovakia Germany Group B: Sweden Russia Czech Republic Switzerland Denmark* *replaces Norway from this year's field. Norway lost the best-of-three with Germany so the German team stays in the field. C'mon Norway! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MafiaMan Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Are there any other countries that could play? Like Japan or something? Go to the World Junior site and you will see all kinds of levels of play. I was surprised to find out that Mexico has a World Junior tournament team.

Norway lost the best-of-three with Germany so the German team stays in the field. C'mon Norway! Now that they changed the playoff format it makes the task a little less daunting. I mean, beat Germany and you are basically in the playoffs. Slovakia has improved mightily over the years and of course playing Canada and the defending champs will be tough. I guess I'm not even sure what guys can return next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
