Oh. My. God!
Folks, it's white knuckle time for Team Canada at the World Junior Championships.
Canada is tied 3-3 late in the third period in their quarter-final game against Slovakia this evening. Winner moves on in the tourney, loser goes home. Suffice it to say that Canada is absolutely up against it this evening. If they were to drop this decision to Slovakia it would be an all-time poor performance for a team and a nation that absolutely dominates at this event.
It's been an electric game full of scoring chances at both ends, but truthfully this is the type of game that Canada should win handedly. Of course, that doesn't look like it'll happen this evening and if Canada does come out with a victory it'll be by the skin of their teeth.
Stay tuned.
