Interesting Import Draft

The CHL's import draft has come and gone and this year it was interesting for a number of reasons.  In the past the CHL's so called 'big boys'  have moved to the top of the list because the have nots haven't been able to convince certain players to play for them.  Goaltenders aren't always high on the list either, but both of those things changed.

Who is the dominant country at the WJHC?

~
For those who complain about Canada winning all the time at the World Junior Hockey Championship, you must think this is the greatest tournament in the world. The last 4 years has produced 4 different winners and this year's event had some real 'holy #$##$$" moments to it. From big hits, slick moves and outstanding goaltending it was worth all the hype.

The crowds were great in both cities, but it sure seemed like Edmonton was a bit louder when it counted. I like the fact that in both Calgary and Edmonton it wasn't only the Canadian games that attracted big crowds. Both cities proved they can host international events very well.

As for the title question...
