Bronze it is!

   

woot

   

Congrats to Sweden.

   

That OT was wild.

Congrats to Sweden... first gold in 31 years... wow. I'm happy for them.

   

Yeah, congratulations to Sweden for winning the Gold, Russia for the Silver and sadly Canada for the Bronze. Although Team Canada did keep the medal streak going at 14 years. All things said, it was once again a great competition, showing some of the best up and coming players we are going to be seeing for years to come. Canada played a great series, unfortunately losing the 1 game to Russia which came so very, very close to being the greatest comeback in the IIHF juniors history. The Gold medal game was stunning with Russia being outshot something like 58-17 and still managing to stay in the game, finally losing in OT. Next year the Russians will have the home ice advantage with the series being played in Ufa, Russia.

   

I was happy to see Oilers draft pick Oscar Klefbom named to the all-star team

   

That was a great tournament.

As usual, the World Juniors don't disappoint. There was great hockey played, exciting finishes, extreme lows and highs for all teams.

I say it again, this tournament is the best hockey of the entire year.....
