And we're down to FOUR... the Semi Finals await!

Quinton Byfield with a 6 point night... as Canada romped past Switzerland 10-0. Today the guys talk about the game and if Team Canada is truly ready for bigger and more important match ups ahead? We also preview the New Years Eve game Canada/Finland. Plus we announced our Azorcan World Juniors contest to win a Pierre-Luc Dubois Team Canada jersey (courtesy Fandemonium).

Canada/Switzerland - another win for the Maple Leaf!

That was a close one... but another Team Canada win! This time 3-1 over Slovakia. Our thoughts? You got them. This year's event is minutes away from our homes, yet we can't be there in person this year. COVID-19 has been the ultimate game changer for the fans, yet the World Junior Hockey Championship got underway on Christmas Day. We will still be watching closely AND will share our thoughts after each Team Canada game.

Canada/Slovakia- a nail biter

That wasn't very pretty... as Canada crushed Germany 16-2 in the opener for the Canadians. This year's event is minutes away from our homes, yet we can't be there in person this year. COVID-19 has been the ultimate game changer for the fans, yet the World Junior Hockey Championship got underway on Christmas Day. We will still be watching closely AND will share our thoughts after each Team Canada game.

Canada/Germany- a bit of a blowout!

This year's event is minutes away from our homes, yet we can't be there in person this year. COVID-19 has been the ultimate game changer for the fans, yet the World Junior Hockey Championship gets underway on Christmas Day. We will still be watching closely AND will share our thoughts after each Team Canada game.

Here we go again... although it's different this year.

COVID 19 has played some tricks on the World Junior Hockey Championship... but we address these changes on this podcast. One year at a time.

Let's look ahead... this year... and the next three.

There was a good reason we took eight months off from posting an update... and Bryn explains why.

Bryn says 'Thanks'... 2020 was an interesting year... and scary.

Paul and Bryn look back at the 2020 World Juniors recap... it's been awhile!

Finally.... a Recap on 2020

Our long wait is over.. it's GOLD for Canada at the World Junior Hockey Championship. BTW- Congrats to TSN's Gord Miller for celebrating 25 years at this championship. A huge part of a Canadian hockey fans Holiday Hockey season.

WE love GOLD!

One of our younger fans on the tour wanted to do his first ever podcast... it was for a school project... so we were more than happy to help him out. Aidan Moorhead hit it out out of the ball park. So we chatted and I asked him if he wanted us to post it on our site... his big smile said it all. IF you have a few minutes and you want to hear a 14 year old on his way to big things... give it a quick listen. Cheers, Bryn

Special Edition: The tables have turned

We have our Gold Medal match up... it's Canada/Russia... suit the semi finals were very interesting with different challenges.

Semi Final Saturday

Canada beats Slovakia in the Quarter Final and now it's on to Saturday's Semi Final game. The Boys look better with each game, but this one had some interesting moments. Especially 53 seconds in to the game. Paul hung around the rink for the last Quarter Final game, so long-time broadcaster, now part time columnist for the Edmonton SUN stepped in to join the fun.
