Morning Flurries: Oh Caaaaanadaaaaaaa
While the Colorado Avalanche look to ring in the new year with a home date against John Tavares and the New York Islanders, it’s been a big 12 hours for Canadian hockey teams. Canada’s success at the World Juniors and the Spengler Cup was buoyed by both the past and future of the Avalanche franchise.
Early this morning, Team Canada was able to win their third straight Spengler Cup early this morning. Canada beat HC Davos 3-0 in the final. One time Avalanche farmhand Maxim Noreau let Canada in scoring with 5 points during the tournament.
Along with Noreau, former Avs P.A. Parenteau, Cody Goloubef and Jay McClement all played a significant role for Canada.
