World Juniors Recap Day 3: USA won, but Kazahkstan scored TWICE

There were only two games today, and both unfolded the way we expected them to. However, neither game was without excitement, as day three of the World Juniors delivered in more ways than one.

Game One: Russia 2, Czech Republic 1

SOG: RUS - 28, CZE - 22
PP: RUS - 0/5, CZE - 1/3
Players of the Game: RUS - Nikolai Kovalenko (COL), CZE - Lukas Dostal (ANA)

The Czechs made two fatal mistakes on the powerplay last night, and they fell to Russia in a game that they actually started well in.
