IIHF WJC Game Recap: Team Canada vs. Team Finland, The Mighty Shall Fall

Team Canada went through a 2 year drought in 2013-2014 when they didn't even qualify for a medal. They came back in an epic win last year, with Curtis Lazar at the helm of the ship, winning gold. This year, Canada didn't qualify for a medal again in a 6-5 loss to Team Finland.

In net today was Mackenzie Blackwood at the Hartwall Arena in Helsinki, Finland. The keys to today's Team Canada win were to quit taking bad penalties while maintaining pressure on the opposition for a full 60 minutes.

Well, Team Canada maintained the pressure for a full 60 minutes, especially in the first period.
