Also from Staffan, here are some of his eyewitness comments on the
Canada-Sweden win in which Kariya had a goal and an assist.  Taken from
rec.sport.hockey.  This was really all that related to college hockey but
you can reference the original article for the entire game story.  - mike
 
 1993 World Junior Hockey Championships, December 27:
 ====================================================
 
 CANADA - SWEDEN 5-4 (1-0,1-3,2-2)
 
 Canada won a close game where American referee Brett A Parson called
 a total of 116 penalty minutes. Many strange calls interrupted this
 game, and the inconsistency of Parson was confusing all players.
...
 It was Canada's best line (Kariya-Lapointe-Bes) that scored the equalizer.
 Lapointe managed to poke the puck passed Swedish goalie Ronnqvist.
 2nd - CAN 1-1 Martin Lapointe 1   (Brent Tully,Paul Kariya)          5:04
...
 The game's second best player, IMO, increased the Canadian lead in the
 beginning of the third period. Paul Kariya beat the Swedish defenseman
 at the boards, going on a 2 against goalie break-away. Kariya passed
 the puck to Lapointe, who passed back to Kariya. Beautiful goal.
 3rd - CAN 4-2 Paul Kariya 1       (Martin Lapointe,Mike Rathje)      3:42
...
 The Swedes pulled their goalie at the end but the game ended 5-4.
 
 The game's (and Sweden's) best player was no doubt Peter Forsberg.
 His line with wingers Markus Naslund and Niklas Sundstrom scored
 all of Sweden's four goals. Due to the large number of penalties,
 this line got to play a lot, since those are the best players in
 power play and box play situations.
 
 Canada's best was IMO Paul Kariya. It's good to see the success of
 a small, fast, skilled player like that because 200 lbs almost seem
 to be a prerequisite in today's hockey.
...
 Three stars (personal opinion):
 1 - Peter Forsberg
 2 - Paul Kariya
 3 - Manny Legace
