few minutes after the 3rd. Gold goes to russia 3-2.

Really good game. I'm not usually a hockey fan, but this game had me on the edge of my seat.

Well, it's no secret that international tournaments are always a lot more exciting that professioanl games. Especially at the junior level, where all these guys are willing to do almost anything to make a name for themselves.

Which Canada did in '93, '94', '95, '96, and '97.

Five straight years...


On a slightly unrealated note, I found this while looking at some world junior records:

Sweden beat Japan 20-1, in 1993

:whatthe:

If I'm not mistaking, that was also probably the last time Japan took part in the World Jrs.
