WJC Tourney Under Way.

USA Loses to Germany in OT.
USA gets of to a bad start in the WJC tourney as team USA loses to weak sister Germany. Team Germany scores in the over time to shock USA 2-1. Wouldn’t you know it, Fighting Sioux defensemen, Brian Lee and Taylor Chorney were on the ice when the Germans scored the game-winning goal? Lee staying consistent and continuing to play poorly looked like a pylon as the player from German skated right by Lee like he was standing still.

Finland Shocked by Belerus
The shocker of the WJC after one day is Belarus beat team Finland and top goalie Tuukka Rask, it has been said that Rask is one of the top goalie in the WJC tourney this season and a future of the Boston Bruins. Rask gave up 4 goals on 11 shots.

UNDHOCKEY Blog has picked team USA to win the WJC Tourney.
My Response: Yeah, not this year. I don't see it happening the USA team made a lot of good plays but failed to click offensively against a lesser team like Germany. Also, the USA players were rather selfish with the puck in the offensive end. Soon to be NHL player Kyle Okposo was awesome as he drew like 5 penalties on his own with his quick feet and tireless efforts.

Rules Changes for WJC
The WJC has now followed the NHL and gone to the 4 on 4 for overtime followed by a shoot out if the game is still tied. Also the WJC tourney is calling the game like it should be called. I think it is time for college hockey to follow suit.
