Upset Of The Century???

Okay, that's probably just a little bit overstated, but there was an upset tonight on the international scene.

Belarus beat Team Canada West 4-3 in a shootout in the opening game of the World Junior A Challenge in Camrose.

This is the same Team Canada West that is the 2 time defending champions of the tournament. And it's also a Belarusian team without an NHL drafted player, and only 2 in their draft year. As Guy pointed out in his preview, they do have heart and determination and obviously caught Canada off guard, possibly taking the Belarusians lightly.

To see the damage for yourself, I'll have hilites tonight at 11 PM mountain time on Global Edmonton sports.

Ouch, Belarus? Hopefully this was the wakeup call that they needed.
