Canada defeated Finland 5-3 yesterday to complete the round robin portion
of the World Junior Tournament in Halifax.  The win means that Canada (and
Russia from the other group) win their group and get a bye into the
semifinals.  Of note to US college hockey fans-David LeNeveu started for
Canada because Fleury had the flu.  Canada got off to a 4-1 lead but gave
up two quick goals, the last one was a soft one and LeNeveu was pulled
having let in 3 goals out of 11 shots.

By the way, I just found out via my lovely spouse who did the net research
that YES network is carrying the US games and there is a radio feed
available via the net.  Canada's games are televised in Canada on TSN.
The US is in the quarters which will be played tomorrow.
