USA vs. Canada World Juniors

Recommended Posts

What a sick move by Kardi in the shootout. An EPIC Game from Start to Finish. And the Short side roofer was a wicked googily too.

Great entertainment, but if Canada doesn't tighten it up defensively, their luck is going to run out sooner than later.

Hopefully this puts a scare into them and they'll play a more complete game next time around.

And how about the guy shooting for the Million? Hits two posts that would've gotten him the Win. That's still pretty damn good from the far blue line.

Too many from Canada, It was Ellis's worst game so far... also Schenn was playing that great.

number 19 for USA, is what I think was the best player from both teams.

The boys went NUTS on the Canadians 5th goal, and even more nts when they called it off. SICK game, made my new years. I see a 6th junior medal for Canada.

Can't believe this isnt more popular outside of the canada, the hockey is so good at the tournament. So much heart.

It's a big deal in the European countries. The year it was in Latvia...their fans were CRAZY...and their team sucked. It will be interesteing to see how it goes in Buffalo next year. Grand Forkes, ND was decent (if I recall) but Western New York fancies itself a big hockey market. 3rd only to Detroit and Pittsburgh for viewership in teh last 2 Finals, I believe...and they did a helluva job in the first WC...so, I suspect a very "Canadian" feel to the crowds.

Everyone in the USA has extremely limited offerings as far as what hockey is even available to watch. I would love to see the world JRs, they're amazing games, however, I do not have a $250+ a month satellite TV package. And even then, I'd probably have to pay extra to see it.

Not even close. I'm paying less than $100 a month for DirecTV with NHL Center Ice. The WJC is on NHL Network, and you don't even need NHLCI to watch it. Plus, I get all but about 5 Sharks games on Comcast Sports Net. You can also watch games on the internet (ATDHE.net), if you need to.

$100 *FOR TV PROGRAMMING* might as well be a thousand for the vast majority of people. $100 to blow on TV programing, jesus.

The world juniors are going to be great in Buffalo. I think we're a bigger hockey town the Detroit and Pittsburgh. The atmosphere is going to be great also.

I thought that the Sabres were having attendance problems over the last few years? My guess is that Buffalo was selected in large part due to accessibility to Canadian fans, while hopefully getting some added exposure in the U.S. market.

I love the WJC - to me, with a few slight modifications, it should be the hockey in the Olympics instead of the professional players.

Well, less than $100 a month is not quite $250 a month now, is it?

I guess if you're not one of the vast majority of adults with a job, "blowing" less than $100 a month on TV programming would be over the top.

Stop being so dramatic.

Um, No. It is not even close to a thousand dollars for me.

And just as an FYI for you since you obviously aren't real aware of your options, you can get the Choice Extra Package from DirecTV for $34.99 a month with the NHL network which would let you see about 8-10 WJC games.
