2010 IIHF World Junior Hockey Championship

[johnbbad]

What can you say Canadian juniors lost to USA In overtime after Jordan Eberle rallied late in the 3 period to tie it up; but in the end they just could not pull it off when defenceman John Carlson scored the winning goal for USA. Congratulations team USA and better luck playing next year.After two years in Canada, next year’s IIHF World U20 Championship will be played in the United States just a few miles from the Canadian border in New York, December 26, 2010 to January 5, 2011

This is a prime example where coaching DID make the difference!
usa was bigger and Canada was faster so defensively the US blocked the slot as well as blocked shots efficently. Canada reminded me of the earlier Russins hanging on to the puck for the perfect shot...fuck shoot the f'in puck at the net and see what happens!!! Look what happend when they did that in the last 4 min...2 goals
Defensively Canada did not put as much pressure and NOBODY looked like they knew how to block shots, in fact Canadian D screened the Canadian goaile on the shot from the point that went in. Canada should have won but Cdn coaches I don't know what they were thinking, congrats to u.s. jr's for listening to the coaches and sticking to the plan.
