"The IIHF World Junior Championship (WJC), sometimes referred to as World Juniors, is an annual event organized by the International Ice Hockey Federation (IIHF) for national under-20 ice hockey teams from around the world. It is traditionally held in late December, ending in early January (beginning from Boxing Day to January 5). The tournament usually attracts the top hockey players in this age category.
When this time of year comes around, I make it a point to try and watch as many games as I can, especially when it comes to Team Canada. Thank goodness they tournament was being held in Canada. Previous years have been in Europe where I'd wake up at 2am because of the time zone to support Team Canada
And today's game-- Omg what a game! Canada was leading against Latvia until the Latvians scored in the 3rd period, tying the game and going into overtime. In overtime, the game was still tied, leading to a shoot-out. First shoot-out, no one scored. It wasn't until the second shoot-out Latvia scored, winning the game 3-2.
What an upset-- even the commentators were stunned and left speechless at Canada losing. 🤦♀️
On Sunday, Canada plays Germany. That's gonna be one to watch.
XOXO,
