Only two games were on the schedule for Day 4 of the 2020 World Juniors. Finland won their second straight game in a rout-like fashion over Kazakhstan, while the United States emerged victorious over their Russian rivals.
Team Canada practiced on Sunday, but Alexis Lafreniere (2020), who was injured in Saturday’s game against Russia, watched from the sidelines. The good news was that he wasn’t on crutches, and the MRI he underwent following the game was negative and showed no structural damage or tears. However, Canada will hold him out of their game today against Germany as they assess whether Lafreniere is able to return to game action at the tournament.
