World Junior Tourney - Toronto/Montreal

[Wilbur]

3-1 USA....Keller scores after Thompson didn't shoot on a great chance a bit earlier.  

[Wilbur]

3-1 going to the third.  Don't take penalties and they'll be fine.  Thompson is the real deal.  Very impressed.  Goodbye UCONN after this year.

Is Kieffer Bellows' dad complaining about te coaching yet?

I don't see the USA getting medal

[Wilbur]

I hate how they always open with a patsy.  Wish they had opened against Russia or Slovakia.  Playing a Russia right away would get the cute out of their game pretty quick.

2-1 Czechs late over Finland.  Make that a final.  

Someone needs to tell them they didn't win the entire tournament......

Nothing wrong with that reaction to a big win.....against the country who has won gold 2 out of the last 3 years.

Jost with the first goal!

Will agree to disagree.  

Jost with a nice hands goal.  1-0 Canada over Russia.

You are correct.  Forgot Canada last year in the opener.

A dogpile along the boards...after an opening-game win over Finland.  Great win, but sheesh...

Some like it, some hate it.  They were the better team, outshot the Finns, and could have really won 4 or 5 to one if they bury their chances.  With their pre tournament showings against Canada and the US it was definitely a big step for the Czechs.

[Wilbur]

After two periods Switzerland leads the Czechs 2-0, and boy were they buzzing at the end of the second period.  Czechs looked a little tired at the end of the second period there, and the Swiss didn't play yesterday.  

[Rock Chalk Fighting Hawk]

might have been brought up earlier, but i was wondering if anyone can post a link where to watch the World Juniors online?

[Wilbur]

3-1 now Swiss half way through the third with the Czechs heading to the PP.  

*Edit……Czechs score, and its 3-2 with under ten to go. 

[Wilbur]

Final from Montreal:  
Swiss 4    Czech Republic 3 in OT.

Really? I definitely see them getting a medal. Way too much forward depth not to medal.
