Acutally it was a piece of lamb not a dog. I played a game in Nottingham England and was fortunate enough to win player of the match and the prize was about 5lbs of lamb, which came in handy as earlier in the game i got a crosscheck across the top of my chin in which I ended up with about dozen stitches to repair.
The Juniors showed great composure in the game against the Americans, a complete reversal of the game against the Swiss, Im sure it had to do with being an underdog opposed to the favourite, hopefully the were able to bottle the formula and can bring the same game against the Russians that they brought to Americans and not the game they brought to the Swiss.
Always interested when Maqiure says its the best hockey out there, we all know its good but obviously its not the best, its not even the best junior players in the world, check you who"s playing in the bigs that would make this tourney even better.

Wow when you look at the guys who were available by age to play on this team its mind boggling. Once again just shows the depth of the sport in this country.
Lets hope they bring there composure to the gold medal game and keep Canada firmly perched as the number one hockey country in the world.
