2020 World Junior Hockey Championships

Results for Saturday Dec. 28:

Team Russia shut our Team Canada 6-0.  That?s all that can be written because the Canucks were just flat today.  Canadian goaltenders faced 40 SOG which goes to show just how bad we played and how opportunistic the Russians were.  ?Nuff said.  And oh yeah, it was Canada?s worst showing in Workd Junior history.

Team Canada sought redemption for their 6-0 losing debacle at the hand of Team Russia in their previous matchup, as the Canadians soundly vaunted past a Team Germany by a score of 4-1.  With no Alex Lafreni?re in the lineup, Canada played a tighter defensive game and goaltender Joel Hofer foiled any a German scoring chances to seal the win.  Good job, guys.

Saw it, not good. Let's hope they kept him out for precautionary reasons. Apparently he leads the Swedes in ice time.

Not sure that Foote penalty was correct.

That's a pretty tough one. It's basically 5 and a game for being tall when the other guy is short. I don't think that ought to be a penalty at all.
 
just got home from work (it's like 3-0 atm)
Is Lafreniere playing? Haven't seen him/heard his name yet but they were saying yesterday he was back?
