I realize that most North American hockey fanatics were hoping for a Canada-USA Gold Medal game, but not moi. As I was 14 during the 1972 8-game series between Canada and the Soviet Union, and have enjoyed many Canada-Russia matchups (who can forget the 3-3 tie on New year's Eve 1975, between the Montreal Canadiens and the Soviet Red Army team, video below) since then, Wednesday evening's World Junior Hockey Championship is hugely anticipated.
The original hockey powers are Canada and then Russia, and though the Americans are now the 2nd best hockey country, the sport and its trophies don't mean as much to the USA people as they do to Canadians and Russians, two hockey-mad crazy peoples!
